Three Devices That DO
A Double Duty Well

0ANE of these two-way appliances
is the white porcelain socket
with a lamp socket in the vertical
end and a black plug-in socket on
the side at right angles, which can
conveniently be used in the bathroom
for light and curling iron or water
heater, for example. Of course, this
can be used for two appliances, but
is especially convenient for light and
appliance. Owing to the angle it
cannot be screwed into socket
with a shade that is less than 3,5
inches wide at two inches from the
socket.

nickel model, which weighs only
four ounces, is cylindrical in shape,
and is kept from rolling by the pro-
jecting push Button switch, which
has a red button pushed in for "on"
and a black button which when
pushed in turns the current off. Of
course, the latter is always safe and
sure, but one may push in the red
button and still not be "on" if the
current is not on at source. For this
reason it would be convenient to
have an indicator-particularly with
g percolator--with which it is diff
cult to tell for some time whether
the current is on or not. Slowly re-
moving the plug will show "life,"
however, when in doubt.

heats only to 4l degrees c., though
on degrees are permitted as compat-
ible with durability. Also, the bear
lngs (and it is most important that
these be of the best possible con-
struction in vertical motor) are
made from high-speed phosphor
bronze and are oiled by wicks which
carry the oil from the reservoirs
(easliy tilled) through holes on the
top of the motor housing and at tie
bottom of the front of the motor
case.
The operating cost for this cleaner
is slightly higher than nine other
machines on record, taking 1866
watts, as compared with an average
of 142, and costing, therefore, at the
l0-cent rate for electricity, 1865
cents an hour to operate, while at
the local 7-cent rate the cost is 1.16
cents. The average cost is LAP and
0.99 cent at the two rates respec-
tively-really negligible difference,
but showing a slightly larger con-
sumption Of power on the part of
the Federal.
All in all, the Federal does very
good work, is easy to manipulate and
especially shines and makes other
things shine when it comes to work
with the upholstery tool.

the clothes out of the rinse water
and six minutes to wiring them out Of
the hot water into the rinse water.
The wringer speed is fifty-hve revo-
lutlons minute and the tub makes
fifty-five revolutions in the same
time. The motor, tub and wringer
all running together take $40 watts
only, at a cost Of 3.4 cents an hour
for electricity if you are paying q
l0-cent rate, or "a cents at g 7-cent
rate. Since one charge is washed in
twenty minutes and the wringer
would be running not more than
half the time, the weeks power for
doing nine-pound washing would
not cost more than a cent, even sc
the l0-cent rate.
Efficiency, ease and simplicity Of

is laid On the ease with which this

Points i'm Operation


The practical results obtained with
the washer put the seal of approval
on its design and fundamentals of
construction. The only criticism Of
the rocking motion idea is that this
"cradling" puts an uneven load on
the motor during the cycle. To off
set this, however, and decrease any
effect the slight jerk might have on
the durability of the machine over
a long period, stalwart as it is in
construction, spring has been placed
on the connecting rod, which helps
to turn the crank when the tub is
actuating the long lever arm and is
stretched when the tub is on the
short arm.
Several practical tests were made.
Nine pounds of clothes, equivalent
of six double sheets, were placed in
the machine with 1875 gallons of

The Quad Receptacle for
Perfectly Electrified Table

Perfectly Electrified Table
EOR the perfectly electrified table,
with grill, toaster, percolator and
waffle iron all going at once, there
is the porcelain strip, 6A by 1H
inches, and 1as inches thick, with
four places to attach a parallel
bladed plug.
Cords could be carried under the
table, so that chafing dishes or grills
might be placed at each end, or the
toaster and percolator at one end
and the grill at the other, and the
work, if such it can be called, of
preparing breakfast or All after-the-
theater supper may be divided and
expedited at the same time.
The device separates and the two
parts are fastened under the table
top by two screws, while the wiring
comes out of hole in the end. Of
course, it may be used in the kitchen
or bathroom equally well, but it per
forms its most useful function under
the table or in the electrical kitchen
cite.
Special attention should be called
to the need for an electrician in in
stalling this device, and note that it's
connection must be made gith the
heating service, not with the light
ing sockets, since some 1000 watts
would be needed for four such appli-
ances at once, and this is much more
than the usual house wiring for
lights and the ten-ampere fuse
would stand. With proper installa-

Motor and Wringer

The Il horsepower motor is lib

and the fabric and red rubber belt,
made in one loop, is kept taut by
springs on the board to which the
motor is boIted.
The wringer is of the usual type,
wooden framed, fixed vertically and
cannot be tilted, but can be swung
very conveniently and easily into
four positions by merely pulling out
the plunger handle seen below the
gear case, and turning wringer,
when the plunger shoots into the
next groove and holds the wringer
in that position. The gears are all
lnclosed, and the wringer is set in
notion reversed or stopped by the
short lever with the black knob,
shown on top Of the gear case. A
special feature of the wringer is
the metal drain board which can be
attached to the lower ridge of it's
