THE METROPOLITAN
Washing Machine.

NILS wonderful Machine ia remarkable for the
i following properties which it is warranted to
Possess. 1t does not the clothes. and never
br,aks 3 button 1t cleanses thoroughly the most
pie, very strong and durable, and can hardly get
out of repair. 1t is light and portable, and when
not in use takes no more nom than the common
wash tubs common hand can with ease and
perfect safety to the cothng, wash faster aud bet
ter than four washerwomen can by hand.
This machine has been greatly improved since
ls5s, and is now perfect. 1t now operates much
more easily and weighs only between 60 and 40
pounds. all put up, and when taken down-whch
can be done in one fourth of minutes light
that a child IL years of age can move it about.
Why all other Machines Fal
is because they rub only the surfaces Of the cloth
taking it for granted that the clothes soied
" upon the surface and that the dirt .,ust be rub
5ed off as would clean board.
Washing By Hand Is Wrong,
because the rubbing Of the surface Of the cloth is
wholly unnecessary and is great waste Of strength
as well as . greet injury to the fabric.
OBSERVE that the cloth soiled is always soiled
through and through and that it cannot be cleans
ed without being washed through and through.
The Reason mhy the Metropolitan Succeeds
is because it forces the water powerfully through
the fabric, between the pestles, and the action OF
the water displaced by the pounder carries the
clothes from the outside to the centre af the tub

portion of the clothes thoroughly and equally

is more than oneh half. Washings which require
all day by hand, are by this Machine generally
done in less than one-half day. The clean.
sing process is done in one-fourth the time. The
cleansing, rinsing and wringing and hanging out
taken together. require less than half the time
and no person can possibly rinse well by hand
as with this Machine. Very many persons say
that the Machine is worth its cost for rinsing
alone.
The Durability Of this Machine.
is very great. don't why it should not last
for ten twenty years, with only repairs of poun
der and rope, which would be very triing. The
whole cost Of repairs upon all the several hund
red machines l have sold in the last two years
taken together, don't amount to two dollars, and
many of them have been in constant use in large
families
