Have you ordered your "Yankee
Washing Machine?" If there is any
branch of domestic labor that is drudg,
and gives an unrest to an household, j.
is washing and washing day; and it
there is aug branch of mechanism that
has bafiied the iDgenius and thus far
proved 3 failure, it is substituting any
machinery to take tie plac, of hand la
Dor in this the most laborious OF house
hold duties; in fact, every garret is filled
with old washing machine trumpery-
useless from the very sta-t--and people
have been led to believe from these fail
ures that there is no other way onl,
hand labor, sousing ones self in wash
tub and rubbing the hide off every fn-
ger ct each succeeding wash day. Ii
really seems strange that ingepu uity has
not overcome these difficulties and re-
ieved women in some measure from this
hardship. 1t has supplied moving reap
ing, rakipg and pitching machines, tor
farmers; it has, in place of the old. ted-
Gus upright saw and its surroundings,
substituted the circular, headblocks,
saw sets, gummers, &C., &C., all OF which
facilitate labor, aud are of great value,
but in this branch Of household duties,
no improvements have been made since
Noah's wife washed her duds in the Ark
and dried them on deck.
1t is claimed that this "Yankee Ma
chine" meets all tie requirements, and
from what We have seen and heard, are
in the full belief that it is a fact.
Call on Mrs. Schram, Mrs. Messen-
ger, Mrs. Whitmore, Mrs. Cummings,
who have tested these machines, and see
what they say If it is fact that these
machines will accomplish the same work
in one-third of the time-saving sub
stantially all the swear aud tear" Of gar
'nents, then it seems folly to continue in
the old track, because we have said and
believed there was no way but the old
way. Buy one of these "Yankee Ma
chimes" by all means, if they will ac-
complish one-third of what is claimed
for them. Go and see one at all events,
as that will cost you nothing.
