is of the parallel blade variety and
will fit standard fixtures.
The Thermostat Serves
To test its safety, the appliance
was wrapped and twisted into vari-
GUS shapes to determine whether or
not the thermostat would work,
under different conditions. The
folding had no effect on the little
regulator, for 1t is protected by a
bridge" Of strap steel. No hot
spots, due to irregularities In size of
wire (caused by kinking) or un-
eveness Of distribution Of heat, could
he found.
AS long as the pad was spread out
(the surface permitting free radia-
ton of the heat) the temperature
indicated by a thermometer was
only 1876 degrees and the thermostat
held it there vigilantly.
In order to determine the maxi
mum temperature at any point on
the pad, by which the thermostat
could be operated. It was rolled
tightly, and a thermometer was
thrust into the center Of the roll.
In two minutes the sheet climbed
from 73 to 135 degrees and the
thermostat held it. At the inner
most part of the roll, where layer
upon layer of the pad was rolled
around the thermometer, a temper
ature of 240 degrees was reached
due to the lack Of radiation and not
to the increased current going into
the pad.
The number Of times the ther-
mostas would be required to make Or

break the current would depend, as
can be seen from the rolled test,
upon the radiation allowed from the
pad. In the open and under other
conditions favorable to the ennis
sion of heat, it would not be called
upon to operate at all Gas the heat
would be given off before the
maximum temperature of 1876 de-
grees was reached), while when
heavily blanketed, as when used in
bed, under covers, it proved that
it would act with sufficient prompt
ness to hold the temperature within
narrow limits of the maximum.
Economical and Useful
The Institute feels that there is
no question as TO the durability of
the Vit-O-Net pad, for with reason
able treatment the pad would en-
joy life of several years at least.
The pliability and softness of the
pad, it's safety. and its price recon-
mend it. 1t seems especially ap-
propriate in homes where there are
convalescents, inyafds, young chill
dren or aged people-and perhaps
the joys of outdoor sleeping in
winter weather would be enjoyed
by greater number of people if
warming pad were available.
When used so that the heat is
blanketed, it's use costs but two
thirds of q cent an hour at the ten
cent rate with the current on con-

and these distribute the electric cur

of its surface.
The metallic threads or wires are
so pliable that they cannot be readily
kinked, and their presence cannot be
detected by feeling the pad. Special
looms weave the wire into the cloth

Care in Construction
The Vit-O-Net is one example of
he efforts made to have the house
hold application Of electricity not
only efficient but safe. There is no
lestioning the pads pliability and
softness-hrst essentials in any de-
vice intended to promote rest and
comfort.
The eight and one-half feet Of
electric cord with the socket coarec-
tion is a generous length, giving any
one the full advantage of the pad
from q bed or couch, which could
not be easily moved near q lamp
socket. The through-button switch
cut into the cord at point two feet

and the other twenty inches, with a
rectangular rubber pad facing in. A
heavy sheet metal clamp rests on the
window ledge, being hinged to the
base, with rubber padding giving
it surface which will not mar any
sill, no matter how nicely finished.
At the back of the clamp through
two parallel slots is an easily ad-

rup at the other end. With one foot
holding the stirrup down, the clamp
stays in place on the window ledge,

Of Simple Operation

over each arm OF the cleaner are
slipped nickled steel tubes that fit
snugly, but with sufficient play to
telescope easily. The shorter tube
on the inside arm is. moved up and
down by simple motion Of the
hand, and this causes rise and
fall five times as great as the other
arm Of the "U" carrying the wash
ing cloth.
The pad on the long arm over
which the washing or polishing
cloth is hung measures 4s4 by 31a
inches. and is made of flexible rub
ber backed by a metallic reinforce
ment. While the metal piece gives
rigidity and firmness in the clean
ing of the pane, the rubber pre-
vents the marring of the sills or
chipping of the putty around the
glass. The pad is pivoted and at
tached by spring to the arm end
so that when it is turned one way
or another it swings back to its
original position and is thus a much
more flexible cleaning force.
The entire cleaner weighs but
four pounds and three ounces and
is easily manipulated when in place.
Details of Use
The cleaner, in an upright posi-
ton, is placed on the window ledge
with the long arm outside the pane
to be washed, and the cloth strap
hung inside so that the stirrup is
about half an inch from the floor.
The cloth carrying the cleaning
substance (ammonia and water,
cleaning powder or alcohoN is laid
over the pad on the outside arm,
which, because of its length, can
reach every corner of window 43
inches deep. There are no lin1ita-
ticns as to the width Of the pane.
for the Kleanr is easily moved along
the sill.
After the window is washed a
dry cloth may be substituted and
the polishing accomplished by the
same process.
The Institute domestic scientist
suggests that device which would
hold the cloth on the cleaning pad
would be an improvement over the
present method of merely hanging
it over the rubber square. 1t would
be neither convenient to the opera
tor nor agreeable to the passerby
in the street below should the clean
ing cloth drop off! A possibility, at
least, though it "held its own dur
ing the tests.
Of course, the Kleanr could not be
used with small windows. high up
IL the wall. 1t is for spacious panes,
low set, especially.
Both nickeI-plated and black
enamel models are made in this de-
sign The enameIed models cost so

Description of the Saf-T

10 clean window 1T must be
raised from the bottom, the solid
piece of the cleaner being placed on
the outside, leaving the arm, which
has a seven-inch jointed metal ham
die, inside. This handle closes down
over the hardwood piece to which it
is riveted and when moved up and
down guides the iron frame at the
other end, over which the cloth is
spread. This prong Of the "hairpin'
is operated inside the window, while
just opposite it, on the other side of
the glass, the cleaning frame Of the
other arm is at work at the same
time.
The two cleaning frames are of
galvanized iron and are triangular
in shape. The upper part is turned
down over a one-eighth-inch wire
shaped exactly like the frame. The
cleaning cloths are held tightly in
place by being spread over the
frames and pulled back over the
turned-up edges, so that the wire
triangle can be sprung down in
place.
/ These faces or frames are 73s
inches wide by inches high--small
areas in themselves, but the arms
to which they are attached have q
reach Of 20 inches, which permits the
cleaning Of window pane 10 inches
high. 1t has no limitation as to
width.
After using the cleaner from the
bottom of the window frame, it can
be just as successfully employed
from the top, with the cleaning arms
directed downward.
Easy 10 Use
The cloths for washing or polish
ing may be either put on damp or
dampened aid cleaning powder
added after they have been clamped
into place. When they are ready
slip the straight arm of the cleaner
under the open window, keeping the
right hand on the metal handle of
the inside arm. The left hand
should be above the right on the
bent neck of the inside cleaning face.
