CADY'S PATENT 
IRON SLEIGH KNEES 
Have been tested thoroughly the past five years, and are in 
use In almost every Northern State; we have yet to hear of 
the first instance wherein they have failed to give entire 
satisfaction. We can not express the approval with which 
theBe Knees are received by the public, better than to refer 
you to the following, which express the sentiments of hun- 
dreds of letters in our possession. 
" The Sleighs I built with your KneeB are the cheapest and 
most durable I ever built. When they are put together, 
they are half Ironed. A man with half a head and but few 
tools can build his own Sleighs." 
H. W. HUBBARD, East Springport, Michigan. 
" We have used your Knees in the manufacture of our 
sleighs for the past 3 years, and have found them to be a de- 
cided success in every particular." 
SAUNDERS & BARRETT, Oneida, N. Y. 
" Tonr Iron Sleigh Knees are an excellent thing. We have 
used them on our rough roads with very heavy loads, and 
they have stood the test. They are a Godsend to Farmers 
living away from opportunities, and compelled to build their 
own sleighs." F. G. FINCKE, BellaBylva, Pa. 
" I warrant my Bob-sleighs made with your Knees to carry 
any Saw-log, or a load that a Team of Horses can draw."
