HIGH-SPEED WASHING
PENNY IN THE SLOT MACHINE. For one penny a person may now wash his hands in some of the public lavatories of Cologne, but he is forced to be speedy. There is no opportunity for idling with a penny-in-the-slot machine which provides one with hot and cold water, soap, a draught of hot drying air, and liquid skin cream in 614 sec. The merits of the machine are, however, that it is practicable and hygienic. A penny is placed in a slot and the person’s hands are placed under the machine, which is quite small. For 2sec. cold water falls, then for llsec. liquid soap, then warm rinsing water 6sec. Hot air dries the hands in olsec. A drop of liquid skin cream, and one may face the world.
