UNIVERSAL CLOTHES WRINGER, 
improved with Roieell's Patent Double Cog-wheels, and the 
Patent Stop, are now unquestionably far superior to any 
apparatus for washing clothes ever invented, and will save 
their cost twice a year, by saving labor and clothes. 
Those who have used them give testimony as follows: 
“ Doty’s Washing Machine, which we have now used nearly 
four years, is the only one the ‘ help ’ will use voluntarily.”— 
American Agriculturist (October number). 
“ The Universal Clothes Wringer is a time-saving, strength- 
saving, clothes-saving implement that should lie in every 
family .”—AmerJSan Agriculturist (October number). 
“We like our machine much; could not be persuaded to 
do without it, and with the aid of Doty, we feel that we are 
masters of the position.”— Rev . Bishop Scott, M . E. Church. 
“It is worth one dollar a week in any family.”— JS. Y. 
Tribune. 
“In tlie Laundry of my house there is a perpetual thanks¬ 
giving on Mondays for tlie invention ot your excellent 
wringer.”— Rev. Theodore L. Cuyter. 
“ Every week lias given it a stronger hold upon the affec¬ 
tions of tlie iiimatesof tlie laundry.”—A. 17 Observer. 
“ I heartily commend it to economists of time, money and 
contentment.”— Rev. Dr. Bellows.
