01 Saving on Laundry
We told you to save last Friday's
ad from this paper. Pin it to
your next bundle. SAVE 10
Last week we added a line to our ad, asking you to save the copy.
In doing so, we had in mind this cash reduction offer, making it
TO SHOW YOU THAT OUR ADVERTISING ALWAYS HAS A
CASH VALUE TO YOU. Whenever you see that little diamond
trademark, remember that the message with it is directed to you,
and has some value, or we wouldn't pay good money to get it to you.
Here is a laundry with thousands of dollars worth of the finest soft
water washing equipment that money can buy, ready and anxious
to serve you. One trial of the clothes washing service rendered by
the Sanitary will do away once ahd for all time with the old belief
that a laundry is hard on clotnes. . Tile fresh, clean smell and snow
white appearance of our work is mute testimony of the honest,
thorough methods, in vogue here. 1
This cold, damp weather means thaia lot of soft coal is being burned.
Your washing done at home ia often flecked with bits of soot and
grimy with coal smoke. So NOW is the ideal time for you to try the
Sanitary idea of laundering. Send-.us' your next bundle and we'll
BOTH be pleased with the results. '
