WASHING
f|MfK Inventor in introducing his new Rotary M'asliiJ
X Machine to tlie notice of the public, does so w itli i: J
confidence that in all-cases where a fair trial is git J
they will be as they have been by those who have n-l
them, pronounced to he tlie best Machine for wa.ffiiij
■ now iu use, and capable of performing more work imJ
less time and with, less damage to the clothes than m 1
other W ashing Machine now made.
He claims for this Machine, that it will cleanse til
clothes from dirt in 15 to 30 minutes and leave tliemtl
tircly clean, ready for boiling and rinsing.
It will do an ordinary day's washing iu an hour ail
(Inf,-milt wear the clothes wove than oneAentk asmurhm
when washed by hand.
It is adapted to washing from the finest Muslins totß
coarsest clothes, Blankets and Carpets.
It can be worked by women or even al2 year old’ I
and is so simple in its construction that almost any I, I
can repair it—if it should ever need it—and w ill with 1
dinary care last,from 6 to 10 years.
HQy One of the great merits o£this Machine in addit. l
to the facility in washing—is that the clothes are not v 1
out by washing. By the ordinary process of wuff.iJ
clothes are. more injured than by wearing. This mh;,.!
tage together with the fact that it will do ten time, ill
work of hand labor, should induce every Hotel, BoariiiiM
House, and family to have one.
These Machines are sold for Cash only, delivered at if j
