From now until spring.a battie that endan-
gers health must-on washday be waged with
rain and sleet.

That, or drying the washing in the cellar 6r

sour smells.

Of course we can not order we=ther to our
fancy, but if you would lavch : : mud and
water, save your health and i:sep sour hands
and face free from chappin; anc roughness,
telephone us.

Next, bundle up your family washing and
have our driver call for it.

In our laundry your things are initialed
where the mark never shows. Everything is
sorted, too——table linen is washed only with
table linen, hosiery with hosiery. There is no
indiscriminate mixing. And it is laundered in
fleecy suds of silky softness.

The weather, and the hardship of fall and
winter washing need never be a source of
worry. Use your telephone and let us
