HYGIENIC CORSET presents an advantage to Purchasers not
to be met with in Liverpool.

CLEAN CARPETS MOST CONDUCIVE TO
HEALTH.
IF any domestic Apartment requires attention to
Cleanliness, it is the Room which is Carpeted. An accu-

mutation of dirt remains, in general, by far too long, which
must produce those unwholesome gases so much spoken of by
the Health of Towns' Committee.

Shaking a.' Carpet actually drives this dirt deeper into the
texture, and when adopted, at least one-half (and the worst part
of it) is taken back into the Room.
The important merits of the improved practical means are.

that the dirt is entirely got out and the Carpet made as clean
and comfortable as when first laid down. As a natural result
the colours are clear, and continue so. The intolerable
nuisance of Carpets being shaken in the streets is abated. No
Housekeeper who has once seen a Carpet properly cleansed
would ever adopt this absurd way, which must shortly become
obsolete.
