THE LATEST INVENTION IN USE
Full HOUSEHOLD AR rICLRS.


Within the last few years there has
thought and genius upon what may prop
erly be classed as household articles, the
most noted results of which are the pro-
duction of the sewing machine, the wiring
er, the washing machine, the carpet
sweeper, sc. Almost every week we
chronicle the advent of some new inven-
ton by which the cares and labors of
housekeepers are lessened, and woman s
work made easier.
The newest thing to challenge our at
tention and gladden. the heart of the
housekeeper, is, what is called the Novel
ty Brush Holder, Carpet Stretcher ana
Sweeper, a very simple contrivance de-
signed to firmly hold in position any kind
of brush or duster having an extern
sion handle that enables one to wash or
dust windows, walls or ceilings without
the aid of a step ladder. That is one of
it's conveniences, and it is also one OF the
best carpet sweepers in the market, hold
ing the brush firmly at an angle. 1t
cleans the carpet thoroughly, raises no
dust, and does not wear the carpet like
the ordinary broom or brush, and Will
outwear a half dozen brOoms. As ham
Ole LOT the scTuODluB DEuSn ~ Is 1hO OOoS
device ever made, no more kneeling on
the floor, no more back aches or sore
fingers. As carpet stretcher it is worth
its cost, as carpet of any size can be
laid evenly without any of the labor and
vexation usually attending such work.
1t is strong, simple, thoroughly made,
| cannot get out of order, has no screws,
lever or hinges, is compact, cheap and
| durable.
1t is manufactured by Brown & Co..
| Cincinnati, the well known manufaciur-
ers of useful household articles, and is
sold only by their agents to housekeepers.
The real utility of this article will at
snce be seen by those most interested,
and we predict for it a large sale Every
housekeeper in the land will want one.
| Any reliable lady or gentleman wish
ing remunerative employment, would do
we'll to secure the agency for this county,
which can be done by enclosing stamp
for descriptive circular and terms, to
