THE CANADIAN HORTIC U LT U BIST 



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, I didn't 

 know anything about 

 horses much. And I didn't 

 know the man very well 

 either. 



So I told him I wanted tc 

 try the horse for a montli 

 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 was afraid the horse I 

 was'nt "all right" and that | 

 i might have to whistle fori 

 my money if I once partedl 

 with it. So I didn't buy thef 

 horse, although I wanted ' 

 it badly. Now, this set me 

 thinking, 



You see I make Wash- 

 ing Machines — the "1900- 

 Gravity" Washer. 



And I said to myself, lots of people may think 

 about my Washing Machine as I thought about 

 the horse, and about 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 sold over 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 band or by any othe- 

 machine. 



I know it will wash a tub full of very dirty 

 clothes in Six Minutes. 1 know no other machine 

 ever invented can ''o that, without wearing the 

 clothes. Our "I90i7 gravity" Washer does the 

 work so easy that a child can run it almost as 

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

 clothes, fray the -_dges, nor break buttons, the 

 way all other machines do. 



It just drives soapv water clear through the 

 fibres of the clothes like a force pump might. 



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

 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 

 offer every time. 



Let me send you a "1300 Gravity" Washer on a 

 month's free trial. I'll 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 -reight_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 50 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 out 

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

 week, send me 50 cents a week 'till paid for. 1 11 

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

 until I he machine itself earns the balance. 



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

 book about the "1900 Gravity" Washer thaf 

 washes clothes in six minutes.
