village il is manifest that, so far as the cost Is

TESTIMONIALS OF PURCHASERS AND OPERATORS.
BROOKLYN, n. Y, Dec. To- 1860.
friend of mine has owned and run one Of
your family knitting machines for some time past,
and has realized, from operating it., over three
dollars per day, and is very busy these hard times.

LIBERTY, Mo-, Nov %. 1860.
have been using one of your family knitting
machines for several months, and am much pleas
ed with it.. The work is better than that done
bv hand. A lady can knit and finish with your
machine q dozen pairs of hose in just about the
same time that is required to knit single pair by

Simple justice to you compels me to say that
your family knitting machine is all you claim for
it. / have knit hundreds Of pairs OF socks and

EATON, Ohio, Dec Is, 1860.
have used one Of your machines about ten
months, and would not part with it for many
times its cost. If unable to get another. Beside
the care of large family, it is no uncommon
thing for me to make with 1t dollar and half a
day +; and ii Is no exaggeration to say that with
no other cares could easily make two dollars a
day have knit upon it all kinds of cotton
and wooden hosiery and for fancy work it can't
be beat. have knit shaws, nubias, opera capes,
sontags, uniersleeves, chldrdn's sacks. comforts.
and other articles too numerous to mention.
can cheerfully recommend any woman desiring
pleasant and profitable employment, to buy one
of your machines. If necessary borrow the
money, and with industry it can soon be replaced
with interest. Mrs. ID. A. DIX.
| OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.
! Aikens family knitting machine is one of the
greatest curiosities Of the age. Not only does it
knit stockings and socks with great rapidity, but
its work IL done with more regularity and accura-
cy than can be done by lady. II will knit q
pair of hose in ten minutes We have not had
time to examine IL thoroughly, but have seen
enough to satisfy us that II will be sought for by
farmers and planters, and become as necessary in
large families as sewing machines Richmond
