THE CANADIAN HORTICULTURIST

THIS WASHER 



MUST PAY FOR 



ITSELF. 



A MAN tried to sell me a horse once. He said 

 it was a fine horse and had nothing the mat- 

 ter with it. I wanted a fine horse, but, 1 didn't 

 know anything about 

 horses much. And I didn't 

 know the man very well 

 either. 



So I told him I wanted to 

 try the horse for a month. 

 He said "All right," but 

 pay me first, and I'll give 

 you back your money if 

 the horse isn't all right." 



Well, I didn't like that I 

 I was afraid the horse! 

 was'nt "all right" and that I 

 I might have to whistle fori 

 my money if I once parted! 

 with it. So I didn't buy thel 

 horse, although I wantedl 

 it badly. Now, this set mef 

 thinking, ' 



You see I make Was'i- , 

 ing Machines — the " lUuO ^ 

 Gravity " Washer. 



And I said to myself, lots of people may think 

 about my Washing Machine as I thought about 

 the horse, and atxjut the man who owned it. 



But I'd never know, because they wouldn't 

 write and tell me. You see I sell my Washing 

 Machines by mail. I have soldover half a mil- 

 lion that way. So. thought I, it is only fair 

 enough to let people try my Washing Machines 

 for a month, before they pay for them, just as I 

 wanted to try the horse. 



Now, I know what our "1900 Gravity" Washer 

 will do. I know it will wash the clothes, without 

 wearing or tearing them, in less than half the 

 time they can be washed by hand or by any other 

 machine. 



I know It will wash a tub full of very dirty 

 clothes in Six ilinutes. I knownoother machine 

 ever invented can '^n that, without wearing the 

 clothes. Our "IKru gravity" Washer does the 

 .work so easy that a child can run it almost as 

 well as a strong woman, and it don't wear the 

 clothes, fray the -.dges, nor break buttons, the 

 way all other machines do. 



It just drives soapy water clear through the 

 fibres of the clothes like a force pump might. 



So, said I to myself, I will do with my "1900 

 Gravity" Washer what I wanted the man to do 

 with the horse. Only I won't wait for people to 

 ask me. I'll offer first, and I'll make good the 

 oiTer every time. 



Let me send you a "1900 Gravity" Washer on a 

 month's free trial. I'U pay the freight out of 

 my own pocket, and if you don't want the ma. 

 chine after you've used it a month, I'll take it 

 back and pay the ireight.too. Surely that is fair 

 enough, isn't it. 



Doesn't it prove that the "1900 Gravity" 

 Washer must be all that I say it is ? 



And you can pay me out of what it saves for 

 you. It will save its whole cost in a few months 

 In wear and tear on the clothes alone. And then 

 it will save BO to 75 cents a week over that in 

 washwoman's wages. If you keep the machine 

 after the month's trial, I'll let you pay for it ou^ 

 of what it saves you. If it saves you 60 cents a 

 week, send me 60 cents a week 'till paid for. I'll 

 take I hat cheerfully, and I'll wait for my money 

 until the machine itself earns the balance. 



Drop me a line to-day, and let me send you a 

 book about the "1900 Gravity" Washer that 

 washes clothes in six minutes.
