ssESTABEISHED REPUTATIONS,"
TESTINHONIALS

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 1t
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 old, the
latter advantage / had 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 macEine to perform
all kinds Of work, would say that with one Of the
$50 machines have found no difficulty in executing
anv 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 wanting
a Sewing Machine MRS. S. c. 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 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 | think it is better adapted
TO the wants of the people than any other fami-
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 eXecutingal yaries
ties of work without trouble, most heartily re-

- Messrs. Cone Brothers We have been using one
of vour SO Family Sewing Machines about four
oh lIV all fpStIm Fl
ness for general family use. We have used it in
making up the heaviest fabrics, well the finest
cambrics, and It has performed all that was claimed
for it.
1t possesses power sufficient to penetrate with ia
ciity as many folds CT cloth arc ordinarily used,
running over seams without breaking thread OF 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 stitch on both sides, and
its simplicity render it the plus ultra Of Sewing
Machines G W; CORtEl, NJ. ~
7 purchased of Messrs Cone Brothers one of
Howe's $40 Machines about three months since.
NV wife has used it constantly since then and is so
well 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
spnprior facilities of Howes Machines in doing all
kinds of work without trouble.

Nashville Jan. 10, 1850.
Having used all the leading machines for several
rpars owning one Of Wheeler q Wilson's at the
T,.esent time and understanding thoroughly, new
prtbeIcss do not hesitate to say that think the
Howe Machine superior to any and all others 1t sews
handsomer and finer work than the Wheeler VIII
SON does not make a chain stitch ike the Grover
Baker and sews heavier work than any other fam
ilv machine. 1t sews beautifully upon soft mil
r6uslin and India lawn, and quilts upon the naked
cotton STYLES of work which cannot be done well
with the claws or jacs feed used upon the Wheeler
/ & Wilson. Grover & B-kcr and Singer Family Ma
chimes For stitching cords, embroidery, quilting
and all varieties of work il is far superior to any
machine have ever used.
