| Christmas being near at hand, when persons hire
their servants for another year, now is the time to
save the hire of Ssruant, by purchasing one of these
THE BEST INVENTION EVER OFFERED TO
THE PUBLIC.
| ADVANTAGES OF THIS MAcHINE-l. Clothes are
washed far cleaner far more thoroughly than by hand
even when pounding is added. AT one and the same
instant they are subjected to the hreefod operation
| of Pounding, Rubbing and Squeezing; those parts
which are the most soied receiving the most of it,
whilst owing to the limited resistance offered by the
floating balls no injury is sustained from the opera
ton even by the finest textures. 2. The time con-
sumed is but VERY SMALL FRACTION of that required
in washing by hand 8. The wear and tear of clothes
is far less, even when no pounding is added to the
rubbing by hand. Persons have done hundreds of
washings with the machine, without ever knowing
button to be torn off or broken. In numberless in
stances the experiment has been tried of putting in
bank notes. together with shirts, considerably soiled.
After being washed the time requisite for making the
shirts perfectly clean the notes have presented no
perceptble change that of being made Clean and
the ink being little faded. 4. The consumption of
SOAP is much less. s. Less fuel is consumed than in
washing by hand, when the latteris done with hot
water and the clothes are boiled afterwards 6. All
necessity for boiling is superseded excepting only
such clothes as are in the very fouest state when
ken to wash. T. All injury to the hands is avoided
no bleeding or sore fngers none of the blistering,
and chappinp and callous, such as washerwomens
hands SO often exhibit. The hands are never i'm
mersed in the water never wet except to the extent
necessary ir putting the clothes into the sash and ia
king them out, and in wringing them. s. The ma
chine is easy to work. so very easy that the whole la
Dor of working it, lin doing the weeks wash of a.
large family is among the ghtest tasks involved in
the daily routine of household duties. Very small
children can take part in it any halgrown girl of or
binary strength however little used to labor, can do
fafiUun and with hpnpf from
the exercises this being of the best kind for strength.
ening the arms chest and loins 8. The process OF
washing with it is most simple, consisting as it does
in the two acts laying the clothes In the SASH and
in working this up and down, by giving the like mo-
ton to the lever which the sash is attached to. ANY
person of the most ordinary intelligence will acquire
sufficient knowledge of it by witnessing it for ten
minutes and without ever having seen 1t at all, no
such person can fail to become conversant with it, in
halt an hours practice observing the printed drec-
tons. For merely washing clothes clean, and ena-
bling any one to do wash in time so short that It
can scarcely be credited by those who have not wit
messed it, all needful directions would be comprised
in few lines. But for doing wash in the most per-
feet manner possible and in the hrleest time possible,
number of particulars must be attended to, which,
although they could be all learned in few minutes
by seeing, cannot be described so briefly. 10. The
machine get out of order in any way, eXceptt
be actually broken and it cannot be broken in using
it. If broken, the damage, when possible,
can be repaired by any common carpenter IN enc hour
IL. Its durability has other limit but that of the
power of wood to resist decay.
