A Blanket Test

For the pair Of blankets washed
In the Universal a solution of four
ounces of white soap chips, one table
spoonful of borax and a quarter cup
full Of dsnatured alcohol in LIS
quarts of water was used with a tub
full (about fifteen gallons of water)
at 10 degrees. Note the low tenn
perature of the water used for blan-
kets as contrasted with the ITO de-
grees to $50 degrees used for ordi-
nary washing. The tub was put in
motion and good suds produced be-
fore the blankets Zone pair, though
two pairs could be done at one time)
were added. In fifteen minutes they
were perfectly clean.
The wringer rolls we're then loos-
ened and the edges Of the blankets
gathered up so that they would go
through smoothly into the rinse
water. This was done twice, being
sure that each water was only tepiQ
and Of the same temperature as the
first Clio degrees), one-quarter cup
Of borax being added to the last
water. All washing soda, as a
powder or in chips, is to be avoided,
as this, as we'll as soap with any free
alkali, tends to disintegrate the fibers
in time, just as too hot water or sun
will yellow and shrink wooden fiber.
For the final wringing the blankets
were put through the loosened rollers
twice, and though they still dripped
little, they dried over night, even
indoors in the Institute laboratory
under far from ideal conditions. If
you want to give your washing ma
chine the best support possible, dry
the blankets out of doors on breezy
day, when the sun is not too hot, and

M claims to be universal" one

w is tempted TO give it the hard
Is, job possible as try-out! With
this end In view we did a special wash
ing of blankets as an additional prac-
teal test of this electrical washer.
Since all woolens, and especially
Blankets, should have the water and
soap gently forced through them,
but should never be rubbed vigor-
ously, it is plain that the electric
washers, cylinder or vacuum cup
principle, are ideally adapted to this
work.
Time Of washing always varies

but ten to fifteen minutes is enough
for ordinary soil on blankets in the
washing machine, whereas it takes
about twice as long by hand, to saw
nothing of the extra effort, for a wet
! blanket is about as heavy and cum
bersome thing to handle as one can
find.

An Electric Mangle Especially
Adapted to Family Life

NHE mangle is only just be-
coming perfectly domesti-
IA Gated. 1t has been rather
large "beast of burden" for the home
hearth, and the vacuum cleaner
and washing machine have been the
housekeeper' first investment in
labor savers. But with the wash
ing and cleaning pretty we'll under
her thumb, the electrified house
keeper is liable to find that stand
ing over an ironing board for a day
or two, exerting heavy pressure on
yard after yard of sheeting, towels,
etc. Cor getting a maid to do it), is
pretty hard work. 1t seems a bit
primitive to work this way over an
ironing board after pressing a but
ton to get your washing done! And
SO the gas-heated, electrie-operated
ironer is coming into it's own, even
in the small household, and the
Gould is especially we'll adapted to
family life.
s'Five by Two" Space Is Ample
If you have a floor space 21.5
wide by 8 feet long, with an over
head of 44.5 inches, you have room
for Gould ironer. The rolls are
AZ inches wide and the height to the
feeding table 81 inches, an admirable
working height, and one that makes
it easy to feed the ironer when
seated. Right here, perhaps, is a
good place to pay tribute to the
"pick up" of this ironer. There is
no pushing, or poking, or placing
cne's fingers upon the hot rolls. The
! sheet or garment is laid smoothly on
| the cool board feeder and the roll
picks it UP without any coaxing
| at all.
Distinctive Features
There are two other especially
distinctive features of the Gould
One is the ruffle and cuff iron shown
on the right-hand end of the ma
chine, with it's own small gas at
tachment and foot pedal. The latter
must be held down during operation

interest for the woman who

one-tenth the power of the electric

''Thc Markings"

The device is made of non-corro-
sive sheet metal with bronze bearings
and steel wire for the flexible shaft.
1t is really miniature water wheel
depending for its power upon the
impact of jets of water from the
spigot upon the twelve blades placed
around a threeinch rotar, which in
turn spins on a short steel shaft en-
larged at one end to take the square
end Of the flexible driving shaft.
The rotar is set off-center in the
casing shown attached to the faucet
by Il inch union. If the faucet
is not threaded a thread sleeve Of
brass is furnished which may be
permanently affixed to any round
mouthed faucet from "a inch to
1916 inch in diameter. A small
nozzle, with an opening only OILS of
an inch, projects a stream of water
on the blades and the water is dis
charged about one-eighth of the way
around the circumference from the
nozzle over an opening q inches
long covered with a gauze mesh to
prevent splashing.
There is a two-foot flexible shaft
and casing with a four-inch black
enamel handle, which carries the
power and terminates in a slender
threaded rod, projecting about one
inch from the end of the handle, and
to which the appliances are at
Tackled.
What the Attachments Can Dc
These attachments are three
grinding wheel, a buffer for polish
ing and an egg beaten. These were
given a thorough, practical test in
the Institute kitchen. With the
grinder and steady hand, a good
edge was put on knife in few
seconds. All the knives in the
kitchen could be kept in good con-
dition with the cooperation of the
Water Baby and the spigot, but we
do not believe that the amateur will
have much success with sharpening

with edges, even and stretched to
original size. Sweaters and other
knit goods, by the way, should be
stretched according to the measure
ments taken when dry, and laid out
in shape, never hung up. Covering
with slightly dampened cloth and
pressing with moderately hot iron
will give many washed woolens q
new look.
A Regular Washing
In addition to the blankets a
regular" washing was done, using
nine pounds of clothes (six sheets) +,
fifteen gallons of water at ITO de-
grees (150 degrees after twenty
minutes washing); and it was
found that in fifteen minutes the
moderately soiled clothes were
clean, and in twenty minutes greasy
dust cloths were as clean as they
could ever be made without boil
ing. The wringer has quick pick
up, and the charge Of clothes was
put through it in four minutes
from the hot water and three from
the cooler rinse water. 1t took only
three minutes to drain the tub of it's
fifteen gallons of water. All con-
troll levers were easy to operate.
The Engineers Report
Simplicity, compactness, good
materials and complete inclosure of
the mechanism are salient points in
the Universal's makeup. The case
and cover of sheet metal are painted
blue gray, and the whole presents
businesslike appearance which
it's performance fulfilled. The only
working part exposed is the ball
handle of the tub clutch, which
protrudes through the metal top
at the upper right hand corner OF
the machine. The ten-foot core
plugs in at the lower front corner
{ only 6.5 inches from the floor, ane

foot.
The machine occupies floor space

There is a floor clearance of three

Plain casters are used, which make
it difficult to move the tub until they

RIPPING RHYMES
BY Walt Mason.
THE PLUTE


Three years ago, in Estes Park,
met an oil-well millionaire, and
life for him was just lark, without
a trouble or a care. His was the
finest car in sight, for his own use
designed and built, and when he
went to roost at night he doubtless
had an ermine quilt. Naught was
too luscious for his blood, he had
the price, and then some more; his
royalties. in ceaseless flood rolled in,
like breakers on the shore. But
yesterday l sat me down upon a San
Diego bench, to watch the cops pa
troll the town, and mark the other
henchmen hench. A man who sat
at my right hand remarked, You
know me not, alas! And yet I've
often seen you stand and watch me
cut all kinds of grass. You've heard
my priceless auto toot along the
mountain gorges dark: for I'm the
gay and festive plute who brought
high life to Estes Park. Then life
was full and rich and sweet. but
fortune Is tickle crone. and now
long for things to eat, and wish
you'd stake me with a bone" Thus
gamblers go their giddy ways, today
they're rich, tomorrow poor; great
chances fill their busy days, but
