THE WORCESTER PATENT PIN
Il LESS CLOTHES LINE.
THE ONLY LINE EVET INVENTED
To HOLD CLOTHES WITHOUT PINS

y.
The attention of the public is called
are the reasons why this is far super ripr
to the old way, where pins arc used.
I. Garments cannot blow OFF. The
harder the wind blows, the tighter the
garments hold to the line. At the same
time they are easily slipped out the same
way they are put in; In fact clothes
pins will not hold clothing on u common
live when the wind blows hard.
2 This line is made of galvanized
steel spring wire, and therefore cannot
rust even ifleft out of doors all of the
time.
3. One third more clothing can. be
hung on this line than can be hung on
II line where pins are used. Therefore
100 feet of this line is eqnal to l5o feet o.
tho common line,
4. 1t can be used for thick or heavy
farments, such as carpets rugs, robes,
etc, or the finest linens, all with per-
feet success.
.; For winter ,,, use l. is far superior to
any line. The surface being very
smooth garments do not adhere and
can be easily slipped Out even when fro
zen.
o. tits made In links. ono foot in
length, easily folded together in small
space i'll case OF removal.
Garments can be put on and taken
where pins are used, and with much
less labor.
S. 1t 10 the cheapest in the long run.
Being combination you have no pins
to buy, and il will last many years.
