Directions.

Fill the boiler with soft Water to within about
three inches of the top of the inside boiler. Slice
up one pound bar of good hard soap.
Bring the water to boil, and then place the
clothes in the bot water. The water will imme-
diately pour over the shell all around, and if it
boils over raise the lid.
Keep up hvt fire for twenty minutes. Then
take the clothes out and Immediately SUDS them
through in soft water. If any shade of the dirt
remains. few rubs will take it all out. Then
rinse them in clean water, wiring dry, and the wash
ing is done. Give particular heed to the following
SUGGESTIONS.
The clothes need not be wet before placing them
in the Boiler. 1t is of vital importance to THOR
OUGHLY SUDS the clothing after boiling. Every
lady knows that the least particle of suds left in
the clothes to dry will cause the clothes to look
yellow. A brisk fire is important in order to Pro-
duce rapid boiling. Time may be saved by stirring
or turning the clothes occasionally while boiling.
The should not be removed, except when
necessary, IN order to insure quick work. If the
washing be large one, the clothes should be as
sorted as dirty shirts, for instance, will require
double the time of sheets, pillow cases, ,~napkins,
&c.
Articles much soiled may be left in for a second
boiling. White fannels may be beautiful washed
without FULLING) by this process. They
should be put in when the water is hot, and rnsed
out in hot water.
Colored clothes should not be mixed with white,
and unless the colors are fast they should never be
washed by this process. The most delicate laces,
cambrics, de-, such as would nearly fall to pieces
if washed in the ordinary way, may be was he'd per-
fectly, without injury, by this process The almost
absolute necessity of using soft. or "broken,"
water, is so well understood, as to hardly need
mention here.
No machine ever invented will entirely remove
the streaks from dirty wristbands and Collars
This Self washing Boiler more nearly does it than
any other device. Should shade or streak remain
it i'll be found to be so reduced and softened as to
disappear without the of wash-board, by
merely rubbing them with the hands, thus avoiding
all the wear and tear of clothing by washing. 1t
has been carefully estimated that clothing receives
more than ONE-HALF ITS WEAR by the old
process of RUBBING, and consequently will last
twice long if washed by this new process, which
alone would pay for Boiler many times during
single year. in almost any family, to say nothing
of the important consideration CT saving labor

Clothes asher and Boiler I!
PATENT RIGHT SECURED.
The Best Labor-Saving Clothes Cleaner
ever invented.
Thomas Greene, sole Proprietor of the
Patent Right for the Pacific Coast.

There are but few inventions or discoveries
which produce a complete revolution in any de-
partment of labor. To have supposed, year ago,
that the dirtiest garment could be washed clean,
in twenty or thirty minutes, by boiling alone,
would have been regarded as an indication of in
sanity. But it has been demonstrated beyond any
doubt, that this process not only cleans the clothes,
but that garments thus washed become whittier and
clearer the longer it is used Some people suggest
that clothes will get yellow after awhile. by being
washed in this way but such a surposition has no
foundation in fact, and is contradicted by the ex-
perence of every lady who has adopted this mode
of washing.
Everybody who has tried the machine in Shasta
have expressed themselves highly pleased with
its operations 1t must be seen to be fully appre-
ciated, as its full merits cannot be properly set
forth in an ordinary advertisement
Public and private tests have been given of this
apparatus for the last six months, and more than a
million of people have witnessed its success. Ten
thousand boilers were sold in New York City in less
than i've onths, from one stand, and at this time
the orders reach about one hundred day. Nc
one ever used it directed that did not recommend
it. 1t has been recommended by more than five
thousand persons in less than six months. Among
the names those of the most distinguished cit
izens of the United States but the best recommen-
dation is to take the boiler and use it yourself Do
just you directed and you will be more than
satisfied. 1t appeals to us all matter of econ
omy, and can be shown to be the best kind of an
investment. 1t will return a yearly dividend in
cash of TWO HUNDRED PER CENT. 7on the
money invested. For instance, we will suppose
your white clothing such as bed and table linen
ladies' and gentiemens' wear, and childrens cloth
ing, only cost you $40 year. They will last twice
as long WASHED in this way as by the old method.
Thus, you actually save $50 year by investing 10
or 200 per cent. annually. There is no family
scarcely but spends than here stated but this
ID taken very low average of this branch Of
family expense. Added to this is the great con-
venence and comfort of the thing which, all taken
together, makes it luxury which no. family can
well afford to be without.
This Boiler sells the best of any article offer
ed to the public. Anybody after trying it fairly
will not let it go out of of the house.
