EXCELSIOR TFax Extractor. 



WE make two sizes, the smallerone 

 having a larger capacity than the 

 Swiss Wax Extractor. Prices, small 

 size, !tf>4 ; large size, !H>5.00. Some of 

 the advantages of this Extractor are : 



1. It is more easily operated, there 

 being no necessity for removing the 

 top to re-Hll 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 has access to the center, 

 thereby extracting all the wax from 

 the refuse matter. 



4. The fllier for water acts also as an 

 indicator, showing the amount of 

 water in the boiler; when the steam 

 escapes through the fllier, more water 

 Is required. Keep a kettle of hot water 

 ready to re-flll when required.
