PATENTED NOVEMBER 9Th, 1853.

TT can be established by reliable persons who
i have used WIsSER's TUB, that it is the best
and most convenient machinery for
CLOTHES 9
that was ever invented. This valuable inven-
ton has been in use nearly two years, md is
now extensively employed in nearly every
to the washing of the largest rs we'll as the
smallest fabrics. Among the leading estab-
lishments of the county where it is used, NAV
be mentioned the HOWARD AND BROAD
WAY HOTELS, New York. Reference can
also be had at Canton, Norwalk and Ashland,
where it is generally employed.
j. R. SQUIRE, of Ashland, having purchas-
ed the right of Ashland County, is now pre-
pared to furnish TUBS onashort notice.
Directions for Using the Tub.
Place half a dozen of shirts, or equal, in III,

bands and collars, should be well soaped The
water should cover the follower bear no
weight on the follower, but turn it easily with

through two suds and the washing is done.

Opinions Ofthe Preas.
From the perfect simplicity, ease, and excel
lent manner with which by the aid of Wisner's
Washer. this most laborious though very nee
essary work is accomplished, we should pro-
nounee it far in advance of the old. if not of any
attempt ever invented for washing or cleansing

MA new and useful Wash Tub. lately in
vented by the Rev. Joel Wisner, is now being

to general use 1t speaks for itself.-NoRwALK
