THE SONG OF THE “No. 9.”
At the Universal Exposition of 1889, at Paris, France, the best sewing machines of theworld, including those of America, were in competition. They were passed upon by a jurycomposed of the best foreign mechanical experts, two of whom were the leading sewingmachine manufacturers of France. This jury, after exhaustive examination and tests,adjudged that the Wheeler & Wilson machines were the best of all, and awarded thecompany the highest prize offered—the GRAND PRIZE—giving other companies onlygold, silver, and bronze medals.
The French government, as a further recognition of superiority, decorated Mr.Nathaniel Wheeler, president of the company, with the Cross of the Legion of Honor—the most prized honor of France.
The No. 9, for family use, and the No. 12, for manufacturing uses, are the best in theworld to-day.
And now, when you want a sewing machine, if you do not get the best it will be yourown fault.
Ask your sewing machine dealer for the No. 9 Wheeler & Wilson machine. If he doesn’tkeep them, write to us for descriptive catalogue and terms. Agents wanted in all unoccupiedterritory.
