"The first day of May, 1883. just
one year ago."
"Are you the inventor?"
"No, sir; Mr.. G.. ID. Ferris, who
then working with us, is the in
yentor."
"Did you attach much Importance
to the machine when you first began
to manufacture it 2"
"No; we began in u small way,
making in our shop at odd hours
some three or four a week, expecting
to sell only to u local trade"
"How many are you making now!"
"We are now making about n
hundred per week and preparing to
turn out i've hundred per week by
the first Of July"
"Have you done much advertising
to bring about this large increase in
demand 2"
"Very little, my means being limi-
ted, but the ladies who purchased
them were so enthusiastic in their
praise that one sale was generally
followed by a DOZEN"
"Can YOU give us some of the
points of excellence in your machine
tilat tudkcS IL 80 pOpuiafs
SIN the first place steam is the most
powerful cleansing agent known to
man. This being the case we have SO
constructed our washer that we can
place it on the stove, putting in a
few gallons of water, and make our
steam, which is forced through the
clothing by means of the perforated
tubes in the cylinder, cleansing them
thoroughly in from s to 20 minutes"
"Does the process wear the clothes
much ?"
"Not q particle. We claim, and
there are at least a thousand ladies
in Audrain county that agree with
us, that one washer will save double
its cost every year over the wash
boards wear and abuse of clothes.'
"Do you save any labor by using
the Steam Washer 2"
Certainly. supposed you knew
that washing on the wash board wal
the hardest duty a lady had to per
form. Bending over the wash tub il
is conceded does more to break dowI
the health ofladies who do their owl
work than all other household duties
combined. A child twelve years ole
can operate u machine with ease.'
"Can you wash anything but plair
white clothes?"
ayes, sir. We can wash the mos
delicate lace without q particle of in
Jury as we'll as the heaviest blanket
and even carpets"
"Mr. Huff, it seems to me as ever.
family has SO much washing to d.
and your machine is such a blessing
to the ladies you should adopt som
system of advertising so that tn
people generally could avail them
selves of It,"
"This we have done. Mr.. j. W
Johnston, of this place, has taken ex
elusive charge of the sale of ther
throughout the United States an
will push them to all parts of tn
world"

many, that would do the work satisfacto-
ry.--W. Grifis, Gents Laundry, 1918
Market Street, st. Louis.
1t is a treasure and no ~housekeeper

editor of this paper has been using one
of them for more than q year, and would
not sell it for $50 and do without.-Co-
lumbia Boone Coz Sentinel.
The Eagle Washing machine will wash
shirts or any kind of clothing clean with

other.--Mrs. Ross, 2S03 Gamble Street,

PARI.oR LAUNDRY Col have tried
many washing machines in my Laundry,

the satisfaction the Eagle does. 1t will
do all that is claimed for 1t, and no family
can afford to be without one.-L. Cline,
Proprietor, SIG Olive Street, st. Louis.

splendid.
Mr.. Solomon Shook is a nice Penn
sylvania farmer and lives on a splen-
did little 80 acre farm. But of all
the rat killers the world ever saw his
two sons, Abe and Jake, and himself
take the cake. On last Monday
they killed and laid out in one
pile Isl without dog or any other
assistance. The boys never let one
get away. He says it was not q good
day for rats either. H.
