But his wife made up her mind one day that they would starve to death if there wasn't something or other invented pretty soon, and so in two hours she invented the sewing machine.

hat newspaper could never appear if women had not invented something. Friends, think. Ye women, think! You say you cannot make a fortune because you are in some laundry, or running a sewing-machine, it may be, or walking before some loom, and yet you can be a millionaire if you will but follow this almost infallible direction. When you say a woman doesn’t invent anything, I ask, Who invented the Jacquard loom that wove every stitch you wear? Mrs. Jacquard. The printer’s roller, the printing-press, were invented by farmers’ wives. Who invented the cotton-gin of the South that enriched our country so amazingly? Mrs. General Greene invented the cotton-gin and showed the idea to Mr. Whitney, and he, like a man, seized it. Who was it that invented the sewing-machine? If I would go to school to-morrow and ask your children they would say, “Elias Howe.” He was in the Civil War with me, and often in my tent, and I often heard him say that he worked fourteen years to get up that sewing-machine. ES AND IF I MIGHT BETTER INCLUDE THE MEN THAT NEWSPAPER COULD NEVER APPEAR IF A WOMAN HAD NOT INVENTED SOMETHING FRIENDS THINK YE WOMEN THINK YOU CANNOT MAKE A FORTUNE BECAUSE YOU ARE IN SOME LAUNDRY OR RUNNING A SEWING MACHINE IT MAY BE OR WALKING BEFORE SOME LOOM AND YET YOU CAN BE A MILLIONAIRE IF YOU JUST FOLLOW THIS ALMOST INFALLIBLE DIRECTION WHEN YOU SAY A WOMAN DOESN'T INVENT ANYTHING I ASK WHO INVENTED THE JAIKARD LOOM THAT WOVE EVERY STITCH YOU WEAR MISSUS JAIKARD THE PRINTER'S ROLLER THE PRINTING PRESS WERE INVENTED BY FARMERS WIVES WHO INVENTED THE COTTON GIN OF THE SOUTH THAT ENRICHED OUR COUNTRY SO AMAZINGLY MISSUS GENERAL GREEN INVENTED THE COTTON GIN AND SHOWED THE IDEA TO MISTER WHITNEY AND HE LIKE A MAN SEIZED IT WHO WAS IT THAT INVENTED THE SEWING MACHINE IF I WOULD GO TO SCHOOL TO MORROW AND ASK YOUR CHILDREN THEY WOULD SAY ELIAS HOW HE WAS IN THE CIVIL WAR WITH ME AND OFTEN IN MY TENT I OFTEN HEARD HIM SAY THAT HE WORKED FOURTEEN YEARS TO GET UP THAT SEWING MACHINE
