ssESTABLISHED REPUTATIONS,"
We respectfully refer to the following
TESTINGONIALS

from the large number we have received from
our numerous city patrons:
Being called upon by Messrs. Cone & Bro. for a
testimonial touching the Howe Sewing Machine. and
having bought and used one for the space Of three
months. and noticed the simplicity of its cOnstruc-
ton the very small power required TO operate it,
the neatness, uniformity and dispatch with which it
performs its work. and the fact that it has not in all
that time given particle of trouble to keep 1t in
order Notwithstanding it has been operated pOr
ton of the time by girl only twelve years DID, the
latter advantage bad not expected to find in any
machine. Ihad supposed that all gave more or less
trouble to keep them in order.
Touching the ability of the machine to perform
all kinds of work. would say that with one of the
$50 machines / have found difficulty in executing
any work | have wanted to do with the machine,
from the heaviest kerseys to the finest muslins.
In view of all these advantages | hesitate not 20
recommend the Howe Machine to any one wanting
a Sewing Machine. MRS. ;. G. ROGERS,
Wife Of s. C. Rogers, of Graves, Marks d Co,
u North High Street
The $50 machine purchased from you gives per-
feet satisfaction. The great objection heretofore
with many people to Sewing Machines, has been
that a machine doing fine work could not do
heavy work and vice versa; that objection is
entirely overcome by the Howe Machine. and
for that reason I think it is better adapted
to the wants of the people than any other fami-
" machine. l have formerly owned one of the Sin
ger, and have seen and examined the other leading
styles and think your machine less complicated and
more easily managed than any other.
To persons wishing Machine executinglall varieS
ties of work, WITHOUT trouble, most heartily re

Firm of Mckenzie & Mnchin, II College street.
Messrs Cone Brothers We have been using one
of YOUR SO Family Sewing Machines about four
weeks, and chGerfully add testimony to its fit
ness for general family use. We have used it in
making up the heaviest fabrics well the finest
cambrics and has performed all that was claimed
for it.
It possesses power sufficient to penetrate with IA
cty as many folds Of cloth arc ordinarily used,
running over seams without breaking thread or nee
dies or disturbing the regular motion of the ma
chine in the least.
The perpendicular motion of the needles, the CON
slant wheel feed the same stitch both Sides and
its simplicity render it the ne plus ultra Of Sewing
Machines. q. W. CURREf, NJ. D.,

7 purchased of Messrs. Cone Brothers one of
Howe's SO Machines about three months since.
Nv wife has used it constantly since then, and is so
wei pleased that she would not exchange it for any
other now in use. She had but little difficulty in
learning to sow on it and can do any kind of work
with it, She cheerfully adds her testimony to the
superior facilities Of Howe's Machines in doing all
kinds Of work without trouble.

Nashville Jan. TO- 1860
Having used all the leading machines for several
wears. owning one of Wheeler Il Wilson's at the
Drescnt time and understanding thoroughly new
crtbcless do not hesitate to say that think the
Howe Machine superior TO any and all others 1t sews
baudsomer and finer work than the Wheeler & VIII
SON does not make chain stitch like the Grover &
Baker. and sews heavier work than any other fam
ilv machine. 1t sews beautifully upon soft mill
muslin and India lawn and quilts upon the naked
/ cotton STYLES Of work which cannot be done well
with the claws or JACK feed used upon the Wheeler
! X Wilson. Grover * Baker, and Singer Family Ma
chimes For stitching cords, embroidery, quilting,
and all varieties of work it is far superior to any
machine have ever used.
MRS. NJ E DUBOIS.

| rantod to give better satisfaction than any other

anime our Machines and specimens OF work, and
