EXCELSIOR Wax Extractor. 



WE make two sizes, the smaller one 

 having a larger capacity tlian the 

 Swiss Wax Extractor. Prices, small 

 size, ."Hi* ; large size, 9fiS.OO. Some of 

 the advantages of this Extractor are ; 



1. It is more easily operated, there 

 being no necessity for removing the 

 top to re-Oli with water. 



2. It melts the wax quicker, because 

 it IS brought into a more direct con- 

 tact with the steam. 



3. It is more economical, because 

 the steam bus access to the center, 

 thereby extracting all the wax from 

 the refuse matter. 



4. The Hller fur water acts also as an 

 indicator, showing the amount of 

 water in the boiler ; when the Hteam 

 escapes through the fliler, more water 

 is required. Keep a kettle of hot water 

 ready to re-Uii when required.
