In the soft shadings and delicate tracings of a fine rug lies its call 
for admiration. The maintenance of these charms is an impor¬ 
tant function of The Hoover. Rapidly its electric sweeping 
reveals anew the colorings dimmed by soot, and brushes straight 
any nap disarranged by heels. At the same time it beats out all 
destructive embedded grit, collects stubborn, clinging litter 
and thoroughly suction cleans. Only The Hoover does all 
this. And it is the largest selling electric cleaner in the world.
