Man If You Could See How
Your Wife Labors onWash Day
If you could see her wrestling with heavy tubs
and wash boilers and rubbing away her health and
youthfulness. you would know why, after a day
of this hard, toilsome work, your wife looks
completely worn out. When you face the facts and
weigh the consequences, it is a mistake to let your
wife go on doing her own washing it is risking
unnecessarily her health and your happiness.
Your wife can abolish wash day from your
home through the Family Laundry Service of her
present laundry. With Family Laundry Service
your wife's wash day consists of about 15 minutes'
work. Sho just gathers together the clothes, hands
them to her laundryman, and in a few days they
come back clean, as follows:
All flat pieces, including bed linen, tabic linen
and towels, washed, smoothly ironed, evenly
folded and ready for use.
Wearing apparel, all underclothing, dresses,
children's garments, etc., carefully washed and
dried (and starched where necessary) ready
to be dampened and ironed.
Manu undergarments may be worn without
ironing, due to the method of drying. Thin will
save a great deal of your work in finishing that
portion of your wash.
If you had to do this thankless, monotonous
washing week after week you would soon take
advantage of Family Laundry Service. Your wife
is worthy of even more consideration. Discuss
Family Laundry Service with her.

MERCER
Mercer's High Gear Ability
will surprise you
THE long stroke and high speed
of the Mercer motor give it sur
prising torque for its cylinder area.
Its high gear performance is cor
respondingly versatile. It throttles to
a walk ana picks up to far greater
speed than the average owner will
ever need all on direct drive at fourth
speed; and its fourth speed "-work on
hills is truly extraordinary.
Mercer is a Hare's Motors product i
built for all around utility. But with .Pr
that utility it combines such individual v
points ot merit as are otten cmpnasrzca
as if they were in themselves enough
to indicate, sound investment value.
