I like to watch the whim- sical stir and display about one of these petty progresses. The number of ro- bustious footmen and retainers of all kinds bustling about, with looks of in- finite gravity and importance, to do al- most nothing. The number of heavy trunks, and parcels, and bandboxes be- longing to my lady; and the solicitude exhibited about some humble, odd-look- ing box by my lady’s maid; the cushions piled in the carriage to make a soft seat still softer, and to prevent the dreaded possibility of a jolt; the smelling-bottles, the cordials, the baskets of biscuit and fruit; the new publications; all provided to guard against hunger, fatigue or ennui; the led horses to vary the mode of travel- ing; and all this preparation and parade to move, perhaps, some very good-for- nothing personage about a little space of earth !—Bracebridge Hall, by Washing- ton Irving A Food Faddist’s Fix John D. Rockefeller, Jr., was congrat- ulated in his office recently on the fact that he, like the poet Maeterlinck and other famous men, has taken to the motorcycle. And has motorcycling benefited your health?” his congratulator, a journalist, ventured to ask. “T think it has,” Mr, Rockefeller re- plied. “I won't ask you, though, to take note of my clear eye and good color, of 1 might find myself in the food faddist’s food faddist was lecturing to a Jarge audience on the marvelous results ~ | money. There are as many grades of efficiency in Vacuum Cleaners as in automobiles or any- thing else. .To the uninformed buyer the claims of a.cheaply-made machine may seem as convincing as those of a high-grade machine that costs more But experience soon proves, in this, as in other things, that “you can’t get something for nothing.” A good cleaner is a blessing to the housekeeper; but the chief effect of the cheap ma- chines is to give the public a wrong idea of the possibilities and benefits of vacuum clean- ing. Therefore we.make only efficient cleaners. Our experience in making air-suction apparatus exceeds u The Sturtevant Vacuum Cleaner will do its work |well for many years, Itwill not clog up while work- ing, and it will not injure delicate fabrics, because its suction is not violent but steady and constant. Tt has an unusually large dast-screen, Small screens clog and so cat down the current of air. Ttis simple in operation, with nothing to get outoforder. It issuited for homes, thea tres, hospitals, hotels, etc, It is finished in aluminum, occupies a space of about two square feet, and is easily moved about on rubber tired wheels.

Pay the difference— and Get a Vacuum Cleaner That Will Last that of all other manufacturers combined —a fact that gives weight to our state- ment that the fan principle is the right principle for a long-lasting and satisfactory Vacuum Cleaner. A fan suffers little wear, has no valves to leak, gives a con- tinuous instead of an inter- mittent suction, makes no clatter or groaning, and does not lose efficiency. This is why a fan is better and lasts longer than a pump, bellows or diaphragm. Sturtevant fans ventilate mines, draw wheat out from ships, convey kindling wood, furnish draft for battleship engines—and often give daily service for suction. 20 years. VACUUM CLEANER We make only one style of cleaner for household we as our tests show that itis the smallest machine that is practical and durable, and we do not care to manufacture acleaner that is a toy, or which will goto pieces or fail to do satisfactory work, This machine bears the same strong guarantee that goes with all our apparatus. Besides the articles shown in the picture, we include another length of hose for blowing and several extra tools. The cleaner rans from an electric light socket, and can be used with any length electric cord, ‘The things that count in vacaum cleaning are tofwme of air and continuous suction, The Sturtevant moves about 100,000 cu. in. of air per minute, which gives un- usual cleaning efficiency without injury to delicate fabrics.
