A Vet
 for washing your flmy things

The cleansing of the flrny, cob webby things that come to our laundry in your family bundle the silken underwear, dainty shirtwaists and gossamer Geor- gettes and laces-has become a fine art with us.
 These articles of apparel to which a scrubboard would be ruination, are never touched by awkward hands when we wash them.
 In lieu of the none-too-gentle practices of the laundress, we employ a much safer method. We place these finer articles in special nets - each according to its kind for washing by gentle sousing and rinsing.
 These nets are purse-like in shape in fact they closely re- semble the common mesh purse. They are somewhat larger, how ever, and made of cloth instead of metal.
The Cordova daily times., 1919-10-24

Secure in these nets, the sheerest articles are cleansed without coming into contact with wash boards or the hands of workers. Pure soft water and suds of a mild white soap, weaving in and out through the meshes, give your things a freshness and beauty that make them as new. The care we use on garments and apparel of this kind is typi- cal of that which we exercise in the washing of everything. No where is there any friction and rubbing, to wear out fabrics.
 Your clothes and the clothes of your family, will last longer if you will send them to us to be washed.
 If Monday is an ordeal, we have simple relief. Just let us know and we will have our driver call for your family bundle.
