Why the Electric Cleaner

There is really no comparison
between the ease aud thorough
ness with which an Electric
Cleaner removed dirt and the
difficulty of sweeping.
True, Que CAN clean rugs aud
carpets without an electric
cleaner. A broom OF carpet
sweeper will brush up SOME
of the dirt; aud il YOU like the
exercise and have plenty oftime
and strength a broom aud carp
ct beater will 10 the work after
fashion.
In the same way one can
wash without soap. Water a
lone will remove some dirt ii
applied with enough elbow
grease.
But people USE soap because
Il cleans more easily aud better
than water alone.
For the same reason people
use Electric Cleaners because
they clean more easily and far
better than other methods.

Obituary of B. Eek

Bernhard Eek, for thirty-four years
a resident of Morris, was called to his
final rest on Tuesday, February 8,
as result of a paralytic stroke fol-,
lowed by pneumonia.
The following obituary was con-
tributed by one who knew him we'll:
Bernhard Eek was born in Hessen,
Germany, October 80, 1852, and died
in Morris February 3, 1920, in the
68th year of his age.
At the age of fifteen he left his ma
tive land and came to America, set
thing in New York City, where he
lived for quite a few years and
worked for the Steinway Piano COM
pany. Being a young man of fine
physical stature and of great strength
he proved to be indispensable to his
company, who promoted him and sent
him to Chicago, where he remained
until moving to Morris in 1885. For
a couple of years he railroaded as a
brakeman on the Chicago Great
Western but one day being caught in
a serious accident, when one of his
chums met sudden death, he decided
to quit and made up his mind to
come to Minnesota. For several
years he ran a well-drilling machine
and finally decided to go on a farm.
When his health failed in 1906 he
gave up farming and resumed resi-
dence in Morris.
In 1893 he married Mrs. Hilda
Mattson. The following children
were born to them, namely, Rudolph,
Emilia and Mabel. Mabel passed on
to the Better Land" in May, 1917.
A stepson, Mats Mattson, survives
also. Mr.. Eek is also survived by
several brothers and sisters in Ger
many. Both the son, Rudolph Eek
of Anoka, and Miss Emilia are ill
with influenza at the present time.
About sixteen years ago Mr.. Eek
was attacked by rheumatism and
bronchial trouble but fought against
these diseases manfully and uncOm-
plainingly. He was very familiar
figure on our streets and his bent
form indicative of the tremendous
hold rheumatism often elected SYM
pathetic comments from those who
knew and respected him. Bernhard
Eek fought disease but on Tuesday
came one fight more, the last, then
ga peace out of pain, then light"
and he entered into rest. On Jan.
80 he had stroke of paralysis. In
fiuenza then attacked his frail body
which resulted in pneumonia and
then came the end very suddenly.
Mr.. Eek was good husband and
father. He was also good neigh
Dor and friend. Those who knew
him best liked him most" According
to the register of the membership of
the Methodist Episcopal church of
Morris, he was received into full con-
nection after a probation of six
months on September 2, 1894, during
