Our plan of selling townships V as follows: A person pays for township by buying 12 Wood Folding Automatic Spring Washers at 110 each and has the entire sale of the machine in It for seventeen year from the 9th day of November, 1886, and all machines be can sell during this time at I con fidential.

At a publlo exhibition on tho streets of Reynoldsville we saw the Folding Automatic Spring Washer put to the severest tests and think it excels any washor we ever saw. We saw a lot of dirty clothing washed and washed cloan In a very short time. A horse blanket was washed cloan In ten seconds, and to provo that the muchlno would wash goods without harm, a 1100.00 bill was placed in the machine and washed clean without barm to the bill.
