Easy on the Clothes —
Easier Still on You
|]i Newest Easy Models have a new type
sJa* es double tub finished in beautiful white
Data—kept clean by the swish es a
cleth. The dentproof enter tub encloses
the inner tub of solid copper. The
heat-retaining air space between the
double tstbs helps keep water hot.
INSTEAD of lifting and emptying heavy
pails of water, with the new Easy
Washer, jutft move a lever and all the
. water is handled automatically.
There is no wringing to do. The Easy’s
wonderful drying tub not only removes more
water, but it can't break buttons; can’t put
deep, hard-to-iron wrinkles in clothes; can’t
Injure children.
The clothes themselves are washed Isan
ti fully by the Jiasy's gentle vacuum cups, and
the water stays hot all through your washing,
thanks to a social gas heater beneath the
machine. With so many conveniences to
lighten the task, you won’t find washing any
burden at all with the new Easy. Photic for
your free personal demonstration tomorrow.
The date can be set to suit your convenience.
