If You Live in a Log Cabin
It's all very well to live as our grand
mothers did. But you don't live in a
log cabin, so why cling to their labor
ous methods of house work? Why
hang your rugs on a line, beat them to
pieces, choke with dust and then only
half clean them. We will call for your
rugs, clean them by modern methods
and return them to your home scrub
bed clean, bright and uninjured and
the cost is small. Call us up and let
us tell you how we do it.
Let Blackley clean your rugs, curtains,
