THROUGH our Family Laundry
Service we will take your entire
washing out of the home and return
it spotlessly clean. The flat pieces,
such as bed and table linen, towels, hand- i|
kerchiefs and the like, are immaculately
ironed. The others are starched so that
you can finish them at your leisure.
Then, too, you have the satisfaction of
knowing that your clothes are laundered
far better than you could do them.
The softest of water, the purest of soap,
gentle sousing instead of violent rubbing,
and numerous rinsings, all make for
clothes that are whiter and cleaner than
could possibly result from home methods.
And the expert finish, smooth and velvety,
will appeal to you.
I Let Us Relieve You 1
l I
g! g:
of all your wash-day troubles. Spend time fj
more profitably. Just bundle your clothes |
| and our man will call for and return them |
i| at a definite time each week. The cost
| of this service is so low that home washing
| is no longer justified.
