has an independent

piercer driving mechanism, and a detachable auxiliary piercer,

the function of which is to perforate closelywoven, stiff or heavy

material in advance of the needles, which work more freely and

with less spring in such material than when the auxiliary is not

used. While the auxiliary piercer is often used in the production

of "imitation drawn work," it is not required for material previ

ously drawn. For ornamental stitching on Shirt Waists, Neckties,

Underwear,

etc.
