The following are a few of the testimonials we are constantly receiving, furnishing a convincing proof of their superiority : / rjCarjy From the '“Express —“ Having had an opportunity for several months past of closely inspecting the working of a Grover and Baker’s Sewing Machine, we have much pleasure in testifying that it is adapted for every kind of work set forth in the prospectus. It combines the cha 1 ms of plain stitching with the attractionsof embroidery, in which of course the femalemind especialy delights. A'thongh the Grover and Baker’s machine is exceedingly useful for plain sewing, it is an embroiderer that it takes its highest rank among its competitors, none of whom that we know of having attained such excellence. The machines are, in fact, in every way invaluable to households, and when the immense saving of labor compared with hand-sewing is taken into consideration, it is remarkable that they are not more generally used.” . . “No. 43, Adelaidestreet, Melbourne, October 20. 18GS. • Gentlemen, —Having one of your No. 20 Cabinet Sowing Machines in use for nearly four years, I have much pleasure in being able to speak of its excellence. In addition to domestic work, we use it for the various materials in upholstery, silk, bed-ticking, drugget, and furniture leather, an i find it all that can be desired. It has never been out of order nor given any trouble in working from the first week, and I believe it to be the best machine extant. I am, gentlemen, Yours, &e., D. M. Crowley, upholsterer.
