won’t find you home afternoons if you have an electric vacuum cleaner.
The lady who used to take all day for house cleaning can do it now
in half a morning.
She doesn’t have to open all the windows in the house, either, these
cold winter days, in order to “dust out” for the vacuum cleaner raises no
dust.
She saves steps, time, money and backaches.
We know that these are facts—we will let her prove it
by a free trial, if she will just step to the phone and call

SICK WIFE’S STORY SUR
PRISES IDAHO SPRINGS

her INSTANTLY. Because Adler-i-ka
empties BOTH large and small intes

appendicitis. It has QUICKEST action
of anything we ever sold. H. A.
