Universal Clothes Wringer

UuiVOISdl OlUGlloO w 1lASOA
Improved with RowELL's PATENT DOUBLE Cog
WHEELS, and the PATENT STOP, are now unques-
tionably far superior to any apparatus for wash
ing clothes ever invented, and will save their
cost twice a year, by saving labor and clothes
The Editor of the Lynchburg (Va.) Press and
Record, who purchased Washer and Wringer,
thus speaks Of them.
We can knowingly recommend these machines
to be Just what the manufacturer repl esehs them
We have had them in regular use in our own fam
ily for over six months, and we find that all the
eally hard labor and drudgery OF washing is en- :
tirely dispensed with by their use. Washing IS
| neat and pleasant employment for lady with
one of Doty's Washing Machines and Wringers,
and we have thought that millionaire. with no
dependent heirs upon whom to bestow his fortune
would become one Of the greatest benefactors OF
his race by endowing fund with which to give
one of these Washing Machines to the thousands
| Of overtasked washerwomen which we have III
| our land. Notice the liberal offer made by Mr..
| Browning in his advertisement There Is no de-
ception in this offer, and we would be willing to
guarantee it's fulflment to the letter. Let every
family which can possibly do so, buy Dotys
Washing Machine and Wringer.

OLD zDOMxNa&tN
cider AND WINE Mill.

aa THE OLD DOMINION is the most popular
Mil sold in Virginia, wehaving sold nearly four
hundred ourselves. 1t is made with two tubs for
pressing, so that the Mill and Press can both be
kept constantly at work. tse isee4t
Instead of the old fashioned graters we have
adopted the crushing rollers, which all admit to
be the best mode of extracting the juice from
the apple This mill man be run by hand or
horse power. The following may be mentioned
among the decided advantages of the sold Do
m .nion:
1st. 1t is so simple that the most incxperienc-
ed cannot fail to understand the principle of OPP
Grating it at once, and so strong that the most
careless caunot get it out of order.
I'd. The grinding rollers are adjustable, SO
that it BE adapted to the grinding of all kinds
of fruit.
Sd. Curved grades on the strainer board I'M
der the tubs, that tbs Mill is self centering,
and the most mex perienced cannot misplace the
receivers.
The popularity of the grinding rollers is such,
that the apple is thoroughly crushed and q larg-
er quantity of cider can be obtained from the
same amount of apples than by the use of any
other Portable Mill. ,,a
