WILL PLACE THE ' '
Famous $ 1 0. QQ Junior Vacuum
Campaign
Cleaner
In the homes of each of its subscribers at factory cost, at - - - - $4.85
If you are not already a subscriber you can subscribe now for six months and get the benefit of this offer
Don't spread the dust with a broom; collect it with a vacuum cleaner. Sweeping and dusting is three quarters of the work, espe
cially in this dusty country. Not only is sweeping hard on the person doing the work but it is hard on your rugs and carpets. Don't you
notice that every, time you sweep you swe ep the nap of your rug or carpet out and then say "Well this rug or carpet ought to have lasted
longer; we paid enough for it." No, Madam, it .is your own fault, not the quality of the rug. Ic is the way you treat them; and the most
dangerous part of it all is breathing the dust and germs that are always in the rugs and carpets. There is no use in taking any chances
when you can get a vacuum cleaner that will do the work."
This vacuum cleaner is always ready for use as a broom. You will be surprised how easy it operates and how nice it does the work.
If you have had your house cleaned call for a demonstrator and he will show you that there is more dust in your home than you thought
there was. .
Remember, we are not in business lo sell vacuum cleaners. This is a premium offer to get new subscribers, giving
.the benefit to old ones.
