$40 MOORE’S $40
SEWING MACHINE
Made expressly for
F MTLY & PLANTATION USE.
MAKING in a superior mannerthe “Double
Lock Stitch.” the strongest, most elastic 1
and durable made by any machine. The best
judges pronounce the Moore’s Patent to be the
most simple, practicable and durable Machine
now before the public, and the most desirable
for Family use; being reliable and accurate on
all kinds of goods; using from two ordinary
spools without rewinding, and size and kind
: of thread from No. 8 to 200, and sewing with
I equal facility the thickest and thinnest goods
used in families, together with a variety of
beautiful Embroidery work, and sold at about
half the price asked for machines of lessprac
tical value.
The proprietor offers the Moore’s Machine,
with the improvements, at $10 or $45 when
sold at a distance by Agents ; and invites all
persons, ladies especially, to examine it thor
oughly, and satisfy themselves of its real
merit.

Moore’s Patent Sewing Machine.—There
has been one in our family for the last month
or more. It gives complete satisfaction, and
is liked better the longer it is tried—it is sim
ple and easily worked, and does not seem lia
ble to get out of order.—[Texas Christian Ad
vocate.
Moore’s Sewing Machine.—This Machine
is one among the best, and is reliable and ac
curate on all descriptions of work.—[Daily

Moore’s latent; the very best in existence.
Every family should have one.—[Evansville
| (Ind.) Enquirer.
Moore’s Sewing Machine.—We have one in
our family, and our better half is very much
pleased with it, not that it is rsally better than
Grovers Baker’s, but it is simple and cheap
er the . tuey are. It makes as beautiful and
sufcct-nMal a stitch as any of them, and will be
! usea by the masses of the people.—[Memphis

think I can say. with all truth, it is as good as
any of the machines that are now selling for
$1U0. For a family machine I think it the
very thing.
To whom it may Concern :—I have thor
oughly examined the machine known as
Moore’s Sowing Machine, and candidly assert
that I consider it the best cheap machine I
ever saw, and in fact, the only really practical
oiip. 1 believe it to be all that is claimed for
it—simple, strong and durable, and t'or a farn
! 11y machine, fully equal, if not better than any
j n*her Sewing Machine in market, regardless
j of price.—[II. H. Smith, Vice President of
; the Ohio Mechanic’s Institute.
E. W. Martin, Attorney at Law, Pine Bluff,
Ark., writes: I think it the best machine I
| iiave ever seen, which is, I believe, the con
! victionof all who have witnessed its operation,
i Rev. A. R. Winded, writing from Camden,.
Ark-, says, with reference to a number of ma
chines sent to that place : ‘’The machines are
i doing splendidly.”
j (From R. S. Jones, firm of Jones. Brown &
Co., Memphis: “I have used Moore’s Sewing
Machine in my family about six months, and
it gives entire satisfaction. It is simple and
easily managed, and does equally well all kinds
of family work.
The above notices are only a few'of the
many which might be given, but these are
deemed sufficient to satisfy all reasonable per
sons of the superior excellence of the Moore’s
Patent. Every Machine is fully Warranted.
The low price of this machine, its adapta
tion to all kinds of family and plantation woi k
should recommend it to the consideration of
every family
