The THOR solves the problem. You can have the wash ing done in your own home—under your supervision and where you know sanitary conditions exist. A THOR in your home means ab solute cleanliness—positive sanita tion. There is no possibility of the MM) clothes becoming infected with di sease germs because they do not Il I come in contact with the clothes of others. Stop and consider—no black kettles—no wages to pay—no laundry bills—and the clothes washed perfectly. Isn't al 1 this worth two cents a week? That's all it costs to do your washing with a THOR. Anyone can operate the THOR—even the most unskilled help can use It without becoming confused. The clothes are put into the cyl inder and then a push of a button starts it—that’s all there is to it. The THOR not only washes, but wrings. The reversible wringer makes quick work of this part of the washing. One lever controls the operation. Washes the Clothes Clean-No Rubbing J. E.
