Learn the secret of a happy washday. Learn how you can save yourself all of that thankless labor and how you can cut down the cost of clothes by cutting out that useless rubbing.

Push a Button to Start-Push Another to Stop There's nothing simpler than to operate a Thor. Put the suds in the tank and the clothes in the cylinder and push a button. OS it goes, sending a great mass of feathery foam through and through the garments. Dirt and grease can't resist an attack like that. They simply "get up and go" they are cleaned out. And when you look at the clothes as tbey come from the machine, you simply wonder at it all. It's a sight to bring joy to the woman who has given up the old tub and washboard way the tumbling white suds swishing to right and left, rising and falling In great bubbly billows doing all the work that once called for that nerve and muscle wearing rub and wring. Press a button and the operation stops. Then push a lever and the wringer starts. Feed the clothes through it into the rinse or blue water and back again and the washing is done. Isn't iuch a machine worth trying t

Pay a Little at a Time Just a small payment down the balance in small monthly install, merit. How easy it is to have a Thoi- how easy to get rid of that washday drudgery. Pay for it while you are using it while it is saving your clothes while it is saving money for you. Come in of call up today about these easy terms.

No Garments Too Thin -None Too Heavy Your most delicate laces and your sheerest fabrics the things you handle so gently when you. wash them come out perfectly clean, without a thread rubbed or worn. The Thor washes them as you do not by rubbing but by sending the water through and through them, but it does it much more thoroughly than you can by hand. The big, heavy blanket how you wrestle with it in the tub wet and soggy what a job to really clean it and to wring it. Let the Tbor handle it for you, and see how it comes out with a beautiful, fluffy surface absolutely clean, and you haven't had to touch it. All your clothes white or colored light or heavy come from the Thor in all the beauty of perfect cleanliness unworn by rubbing and without a particle of effort on your part. Isn't it a wonderful machine that will do the washing for you this way? Isn't it something worth looking into right now before another wash day comes around?

Only 2 cents per hour for current almost nothing and you can do a good sized wash in an hour with the Thor. 2 cents to save yourself all that drudgery to save your clothes from the washboard to get six times the service from your clothes because they are saved from that awful mauling. What a little price to pay to make such a big saving! Just figure how much you will be in at the end of the year. Can you afford to be without a Thor ? -

HI ZItG.

Monday Morning Old Way There she stands the woman who is tied by habit to the old fashioned way of washing. The tub and the washboard grin up into her despairing face. It Is their day of fun her day of rub and rub and work that strains every nerve and every muscle. This is the woman who hasn't found the easy, labor-saving, money-savin j way to wash with the Thor. If she will only read what we say here if Bhe will only act after she has read all those washday troubles will vanish.

Small Amount Down Balance in Payments

Pays for Itself Pays for a Laundress The saving on clothes figure it out at 6 times the service vill pay for the machine. You will really get the money back that you pay now and then year after year you will have the wonderful Thor at work for you. You could keep a laundress and have, the machine too and even then the saving on wear of the clothes would more than return what you give for the Thor. Figure it out.
