A Few Words to Husbands
About Washday Help
New ideals have come to hus
bands on the question of what
should be expected of a helpmate.
No husband now asks of his wife
anything that he would not do
himself*
But many husbands forget
abouf washday, with its heavy
labor. AB& because they just
haven’t thotig&t about it, still
permit their wiv'c^fb struggle d
with this trying tasffe
It need not be so in th£ future/
Our Family Laundry Service’
offers a happy way out. ThisJ
is a modern service—the cost is:
no more than washday at home,
and usually it is less.
We wash everything in water
delightfully soft and in fleecy
suds of flaked soap. Nowhere
in our process is there any of
the old-fashioned rubbing or
scrubbing. Washed in OUT way
every garment is sweet and fresh
—a joy to wear.
Then we iron the flat pieces—
the bed linens, the tablecloths,
the napkins, and so on, in our
improved manner. Other things,
like skirts, the Children^ clothes;
and shirtwaists, we starch and
make ready for the housewife
to iron. Many of the undergar
ments, because of the airy way
we dry them, need no ironing.
In substance, we do all the
hack-breaking work of washday,
leaving to housewives only the
fighter ironing.
We Will be glad to tell you
more about this family laundry
service. Telephone us any time.
Or mail us your address and we
will have our man call for your
family bundle.
