LET ELECTRICITY DO TIHIE HOVSEWORK

For Almost

Every KFssdl

All of these articles are practical, useful and ornamental which, combined with a price range that will fit any and every purse, makes them really ideal gifts. The Craighead Co., is especially desirous of impressing those persons seeking gifts of character, individuality and exclusiveness to visit the store. Demonstrations are gladly given and our advice is free and unbiased. We will tell you frankly the full story of all we have to sell and stand behind every article with our personal and the maker's guarantee.

Electrfc Vacuum Cleaners What housewife would not thoroughly appreciate this great labor saving device. It cleans everything carpets, ruga, curtains, matresses, upholstery and does it without dust or fatigue. Its parts are few and simple, a child can operate it and it does its work more thoroughly and better than anybroom or sweeper ever made. It is perfection and other forms of cleaning are years behind when compared with a Duntley. Phone us for a Demonstration. An Electric Flat-iron jFor instance, here is an electric iron; every woman in a household 'would rejoice at such a gift; for even if the regular laundry work is not done in the home at all there are myriads of things for which a convenient iron is used each day. These irons are furnished in various sizes, from the tiny three-pound "Travelers' iron" to the heavy eightpound one designed for truly heavy ironing, etc. The comforts of a medium weight iron needs only a twist of the wrist to connect it with an electric light socket, thus insuring perfect, steady and serviceable heat, can only be fully realized after one has used such an iron and then been deprived thereof. Price 4.50. Electric Toaster

But as varied as are the uses of the chafing dish one woman declaring that she could cook ANY thing on it there has not yet been discovered any one who could use it to make good toast. Hence we have a device especially for that purpose in the toaster, and which is built to hold a half-dozen slices of toast, and which is so constructed as to be actually ornamental to the breakfast table. The little bright nickel article rests on a porcelain base, either plain or decorated, and as toast, like coffee, to be really good must be freshly made, this is truly a boon. It can be used at the bedside or on the table and the toast made on it is always excellent, as a main requisite in making toast is to have a regular, steady, even heat such as is given by nothing as perfectly as by electricity.
