'■ Fit, Style, and Wobkmihship Guaranteed. HUGHO. ORAIGHEAD. Ashburton, January let, 1887. 12 HUSBAND AND Wl££. The Husband, Dear wife. 1 am weary of seeing Yon toil every day for your bread,. "While I am a poor helpless being } 'Tis often I wish I were dead. Yon ne'er were accustomed to toiling, Yonr hands were once white like the enow: While I watch yon work night and morning Yonr movements seem wearied and alow . The Wife. 1 , Dear husband, give over your worry, My work socms like labor, I ween, Bnt I am never compelled, dear, to hurry Now 1 tise Ferriman's Washing Machine. It lightens by two -thirds my labors, And makes all my garments so clean, That onr clothes are the envy of neighbors Who adore Ferriman's Wabhing Machine TO THE WIVES AND MOTHBRS OF ABHBTJRTON AND THE GENERAL PUBLIO OF NEW ZEALAND. In presenting to the public of Aahbuiton the marvellous STEAM WASHER, 1 believe I am conferring a boon of incalculable worth on every wife and mother m this beautiful land, an whom that most important function of every household devolves, known (and hitherto dreaded) as washing clothes of every description. By the nee of this Machine, this distasteful and slavish work is entirely relieved of its drudgery, and made a source of pleasurable exercise. The unequalled qualities whioh it possesses of thoroughly blr ncbing the clotheß giving them an unparalleled whiteness, and its harmless action upon delicate and colored fabrics, render it peculiarly useful and popular. The saving qualities of the Machine quite m keeping with its other m»r>torioT>B features. Any person who will giro it a practical test will be unquestionably convinced that from an ECONOMICAL stindpoint it is unsurpassed and unequalled. The consumption of fuel is materially reduced. The saving effected m this itarn alone will m one year equal the price of the Machine. As it only entails ibo consumption of two-thirds the amount of soap u*ed m the ordinary way of washing, this item of economy is self-evident to every person. The greatest saving, however, is effected m the wear and tear ,of the clothes. Every intelligent individual knows that tin use of tho washboard wears the various fabrics more than anything else, and SB the marvellous P team Washer renders its nee absolutely unnecessary, and thereby obviates almost entirety the necessity for " clothes mending," its saving qualities m thii particular will be at once apparent and appreciated. But all ita savin? qualities of a financial character are eclipsed, and dwindle into insign'ficance, when we tafce into consideration the trail, delicate, and ' weakly condition of thousands of wives and mothers who ate forced to tax their energies and waste their limited strength m Jthe old wty of washing • bnt who may, by the use of ita magical pro. pcrties, do the work without any fatigue to their feeble bodies, and with infinite satisfaction and pleasure to their minds. This, more than any desire or expectation on the. part of the inventor to make money out o the article, was the prime object he had m view. From the marvellous results obtained from ita use, however, and the unbounded and enthnsi. aatic commendations from everyone having need it since its introduction to the public, as 1 eannexed list of names of persons whi have purchased the machine and are willing to testify to its merits, will f ally attest, the advertiser has deemed it wise, m order to place this incomparable article of household use more prominently before the intelligent people of the district, to give the postal address of a few of the buyers, m order that an unprejudiced and entirely impartial opinion of its intrinsic value, may be readily obtained by anyone desirous of getting snch information from actual users and purchasers, who will undoubtedly be best calculated to give a just estimate of its value.
