Lock-Stitch Sewing Machines

Are world-renowned for durability and sim
plicity of machinery, the perfection Of the ten
sions and the unparalleled wide range Of work
they arc capable Of performing without change
or readjustment.
At the great Exposition Universellc' in Pa
rs, in 1867, they were awarded the highest prize
- massive Gold Medsl-over 50 competitors,
and the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honor WAS
conferred on Elias Howe as the original inventor
of the Sewing Machine.
The growing appreciation Of their character
istic excellence by the intelligent people Of this
country was clearly shown by the unpreccdcnt-
ed sales of tho Howe Sewing Machine during the
| past year, being far in excess of those of any
other one patent.
More than 1000 of these excellent machines
are in daily use in the cities Of Washington and
Georgetown, and of this very large number Il
single case of dissatisfaction cannot be found.
They make the "Howc," or "Lock-Sttch,"
which has the samo beautiful appearance on
either side of the fabric scwcd and they are the
only machines that make this beautiful stitch to
perfection.
A branch office has been recently established
at No. 105, King street. lfyou nra projudlced IN
favor Of any particular machine, at least cAanl-
inc the Howe before you purchase. Remomber
that Mr. Howe was the original inventor Of the
Sewing Machine, and gave twenty years of. his
life to perfecting this machine.
Every Howe Machine is warranted for ten
years constant use by the company, and is kept
always in perfect order by the local agency.
Purchasers are thoroughly instructed at their
residences, by competent instructreSscs in every
variety Of plain and ornamental sewing.
An efficient lady operator will be in constant
attendance at the Office, and machine stitching of
every description will be neatly and promptly
executed. j. KARR, General Agent
