VOTES
Don’t Endure It...
Eliminate it!
Static electricity . . . the little
scientific imp that shocks you
every time you touch a door-
knob, light switch, or someone
nearby . . . is nature's sign
that your home is suffering
from lack of proper humidity.
Your throat is scratchy, your
nasal passages dry out, and
you're plagued by dry and
flaky skin and scalp.
The desert-dry air in your
home also can shorten the life
of plants, draperies, rugs and
upholstery, and can cause
loosening of joints in furniture
and floors.
HERRmidifier Company, Inc.—
a pioneer in humidification for
nearly 30 years—offers a com-
plete line of residential humid-
ifiers that eliminate these and
other annoying discomforts.
Call us today and let us show
you how easily and inexpen-
sively HERRmidifier can put
natural freshness into your
home.
