Self-Operating
Clothes Washer and Boiler !
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 discoveries
partment of labor. To have supposed, year ago,
that the dirtiest garment could be washed clean,
in twenty thirty minutes, by boiling alone,
would have been regarded 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
washed in this way but such a surposition has no
foundation in fact, and is contradicted by the
perience 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 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 sold in New York City in less
than five onths, from one stand, and at this time
the orders reach about hundred day Ne
ever used it as directed that did not recommend
it. 1t has been recommended by than FIVE
thousand persons in less than six II onths. Among
the names are those of the most distinguished cit
liens of the United States but the best recommen-
daton is to take the boiler and use it yourself Do
just you directed and you will be more than
satisfied. 1t appeals to all a matter of econ
omy, and can be shown to be the best kind of an
investment. 1t will return yearly dividend in
cash of TWO HUNDRED PER CENT on the
money invested For instance, we will suppose
your white clothing snch as bed and table linen
ladies' and gentemens' wear and childrens' cloth
ing, only cost you $40 year. They will last twice
long washed in this way as by the old method
Thus, you a"tually save 900 year by investing 10
or 200 per annually. There is no family
scarcely butspends more than here stated but this
is taken very low average of this branch of
family expense. Added to this is the great con-
venience and comfort Of the thing, which, alltaken
together, makes it luxury which no family can
well afford to he without.
This Boiler sells the best of any article ever offer
ed to the public Anybody after trying it fairly
will not let it go out of of the house.

Directions.

Fill the boiler with soft. water to within about

clothes in the not water. The water will ,mme-

Keep up a hit fire for twenty minutes. Then
take the clothes out ard 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 cFJthing after boiling. Every
lady knows that the least particle of suds left in
the clothes to dry will cause the clothes to look
yellow 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 cover should not be removed, except when
necessary, in order to insure quick work If the
washing be a large one, the clothes should be as
sorted, as dirty shirts, for instance, will require
double the time of sheets, pillow cases, napkins,
dc.
Articles much soiled may be left in for a second
boiling. White hannels may be beautiful washe1

should be put in when the water is hot, and rinsed

Colored clothes should not be mixed with white.

if washed in the ordinary way. may be was he'd per-
fecty, without injury, by this process. The almost
absolute necessity of using soft, or "broken, -

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 as long if washed by this process, which
alone would pay for a Boiler many times during
sin le year, in almost any family, to say nothing
