Carpet Sweeper 



The corn broom merely scatters fine dust, whereas 

 the Bissell lifts it out of the carpet and deposits it in 

 the pan receptacles. The broom raises clouds of 

 dust that settle back on the fine curtains, draper- 

 ies, furniture, etc., filling the lungs of the opera- 

 tor as well, whereas the Bissell confines all the 

 dust, and cleanses the carpet as no other sweeper 

 or corn broom can. No work is so dreaded by 

 the housewife as sweeping with the corn broom. 

 The Bissell reduces the labor of sweeping 

 95%, and lasts longer than fifty brooms. 

 Sold by all first-class dealers.
