T HE very latest triumph in carpet 
sweeper mechanism. Runs so easily 
a child can operate it, and does the 
work with a thoroughness and dispatch never 
approached by any other sweeper. Another 
new, valuable feature contained in this sweeper 
is the SQUARE Dust-Proof Axle Tubes that 
enclose the axle rods and prevent threads or 
ravelings from winding about the axles, also 
maintain the uniform position of the brush to 
the surface of the carpet, and insure a positive 
rotation of the brush under all conditions. 
Never before have Ball Bearings been suc¬ 
cessfully applied to a carpet sweeper, the great 
obstacle being to bring the cost within the 
reach of the masses. This we have at last 
accomplished, and are able to offer a genu¬ 
inely efficient Ball Bearing sweeper at a price 
that brings it within the range of every 
household.
