Electric Floor Polisher.
A new home appliance, an elec-

signed to make floor polishing easier
and faster, has been developed by
one Of the Nations top industrial
designers, and is now available to
the home owner. The polisher was
designed to help housewives bring
out the beauty Of waxed floors. It's
all-aluminum construction is strong
and durable.
A high-speed motor drives a cylin-
drical brush at a speed of 5000 rev.
olutions per minute, greatly reduc-
ing polishing time. This brush is
balanced to insure smooth running,
and contains 10000 natural fibers.
Air vents in the cover keep the
motor cool to insure longer life. 1t
runs on &C. or dc, 110-120 volts.
Ball bearings are permanently sealed
in a lubricant, which eliminates
oiling.
The polisher comes equipped with
2212 feet of rubber covered cord
with a durable nodded plastic plug.
The streamlined motor housing and
handle are finished in rich Cherokee
red with a blending gold-colored
bumper to protect furniture and
baseboards. The manufacturer guar

But this excellent record was
not achieved offhand. Mr.. Gonzal-

In 1882 he made his last voy-

schooner, the Ellen Little = a

Cape Verde Islands which were
reached after two months and IA
days. Besides the ordinary haz-
