The new laundry building erected by
the Judith Steam Laundry company,
on Broadway between Fourth and
Fifth avenues is one of the best build

structure and is admirably suited to
the purpose to which it is put.
The laundry proper is a large room
3S feet in width by "A ieet in length
and this room contains washing ma
chimes, starchers and drying closets,
besides the mangles and other mach
ines necessary in a first-class steam
laundry. In the real of this room is
the engine and boiler room. The boil
er is of 60 horse power and a power
full engine is in use here to run the
various machines. A competent engi-
neer is in charge of this part of the
business.

laundry is in the room next to the
laundry proper. This is a room 16

The pr%oprietors of the laundry
make the following announcement:
The Judith Steam Laundry is now
in its new quarters ready for business
and at this time the p%roprietors want
to express their gratitude to the pub
lie of Lewistown and adjoining towns
for their liberal patronage In the past.
We hope and confidently expect, our
new plant will do work III such a man.
ner as to warrant your patronage in
the future. We have as complete a
plant as there is in the state; plenty
of room and experienced help and a
disposition to do the very best class
of work possible. We feel sure We
can give you perfect satisfaction in
our line.
We have made some reductions in
prices and in fact have adopted the
prices of the outside union laundries
We charge the same prices as the
Butte, Helena and Great Falls laun
dries and we pay union salaries. We
employ a force of sixteen hands and
pay them every Saturday night. A
more satisfied lot of help it would be
hard to find. Every dollar paid to the
Judith Steam Laundry is paid out fol
labor and expenses and 1t is all spent
in the county.
We feel the public will be justified
in allowing us to do the laundry work
instead of giving it to a Chinaman
who has no interest in the county ex
cept to get what he can out of it ant
take that back to China.
In connection with the laundry We
will soon have the finest of bathint
rooms to be found anywhere. There
will be plunge. vapor. shower and tut
baths and they will all be arranged
in up-to-date style. When complete
the rates for baths will be announced
and we hope to make such rates al
will encourage the liberal use of thit
establishment.
Thanking you for past favors ant
hoping we may be able to do you
laundry work in the future, we remain
yours to serve,
JUDITH STEAM LAUNDRY.
