EXCELSIOR 



WAX EXTRACTOR 



The advantages of this Extractor are : 



1. It is more easily operated, there being- 

 no necessity for removing the top to refill 

 with water. 



"2. It melts quicker, because the wax is 

 brought into a more direct contact with the 

 steam. 



S. It is more economical, because the steam 

 has access to the center, thereby extracting 

 all the wiux from the refuse matter. 



4. The filler for water acts also as an indi- 

 cator as to the amount of water in the boiler, 

 as when the steam escapes through the filler, 

 more water will be required. 



Keep a kettle of hot water ready to fill 

 when required. We make two sizes, the 

 smaller one having a larger cajiacity than 

 the Swiss Wax Extractor. _ 



Price, small size, §4.00— large size, $5.00.
