Hugh Malloy, Prop. Cmnw^Zlt,
There Are Many
Simple Things
in the world thut almost any one can do.
For Instance, anyone can roll off a loa
ned yet oven in the simple things some
excel others. It looks like a simple thiiiK
to launder u shirt, or collar, and it is if you
don't caro how 'tis done. Here again the
"Kuow how" cuts any umount of ice.
The Spotless Cleanness
the pearly tint, the soft, silky llnish, the
flexible stiffness, these things do not come
by luck and chance, but rather by syste
matic, intelligent handling; in short, the
"Know how" produces the result. We
have It. Give us a triul to do your laun
dry.
