Easy Vacuum
Electric Washer
Makes New Friends Every JVeek
This is evidenced
by the increased sales a
from week to week.
The "EASY" Vacuum Pj'ifT
Electric Washer dif- •
cause it operates on I
the vacuum or sue- '' \
tion principle. It is, : I|S
therefore, very simple — ' M
to understand whv /
it cleanses clothes , 1 ..
more rapidly and 4
cleaner, and without _
wear and tear, than j
other washers do. When washer is in operation, the
two vacuum cups inside the tub move up and down 60
times per minute, taking a new position on each ,
downward stroke. The air contained in the cups on
the down stroke forces the soapy water through the
mesh of the garments, while on the up-stroke the
cups suck the soapy water back through the mesh.
This suction carries with it any foreign substances
and dirt lodged in the mesh—it does not in the least
injure the daintiest laces, flannels,, lingerie, etc.; in
fact it preserves them, there being no dragging, rub
bing or jerking of the clothes over cleated or corru
gated surfaces-
Equipped complete with swinging wringer and
sold on the Bowman Club Plan of deferred payment
if preferred.
