BROWN’S
WASHIKTO- MACHINE.
rpilE Inventor in introducing his new Rotary \Vluslliil.
X Machine to tlie notice ofthe public, does so with tl
confidence that in all cases where a fair trial is given,
they will be as they have been by those who have us,-,!
them, pronounced to he tlie best Machine for washing
now in use, and capable of performing more work in far
less time and with less damage to the clothes than am
other Washing Machine now made.
He claims for this Machine, that it w ill cleanse tin
clothes from dirt in 15 to 30 minutes and leave them en
tirely clean, ready for boiling and rinsing.
It will do an ordinary day’s washing in an hour ami
does not wear the clothes more than one-tenth as much
when washed by hand.
It is adapted to washing from tlie finest Muslins to the
coarsest clothes, Blankets and Carpets.
It can be worked by women or even a 12 year old koj.
and is so simple in its construction that almost any liody
can repair it—if it should ever need it—and will w ith nr
dinary care last from 5 to 10 years.
H ffc- One of tlie great merits of this Machine in ndditioi*
to the facility in washing—is that the clothes are not wort,
out by wash tug. By the ordinary process of washing
clothes are more injured than by wearing. This advan
tage together with the fact that it will do ten times th*
work of hand lalior, should induce every Hotel, Bourdii,-:
House, and family to have one.
These Machines are sold for Cash only, delivered at onr
shop—price sl3. Directions for using sent with ever;
