Mention PHILOSOPHY OF HEALTH, and address, Rocky Mountain Magazine Station 92 Denver, Colorado THE SUPERIOR-Combination Cleaner with Brush Attachment has three highly efficient bellows, so arranged as to produce a continuous even suction, so powerful, that we have entirely eliminated the necessity of sliding or dragging the nozzle and front end of the machine over the carpet. This makes the machine run fifty per cent easier; saves the nap on the carpet and makes it possible to run off and onto rugs without lifting the machine from the floor. WE ACHIEVE these results by supporting the front end of the machine on two small side wheels just back of the nozzle. In addition, our new Combination Sweeper is fitted with a large revolving brush that will do its work as well as any carpet sweeper. This brush is full sweeper size and is very thick and substantial, having 4 rows of genuine bristles with spiral twist setting. The brush may be instantly adjusted to brush deeply into the nap of the carpet, to skim lightly and swiftly over the surface or it may be raised up entirely out of use, all by the touch of a finger. Both dust pans are emptied instantly without overturning the machine by merely depressing one small lever at the rear. These attachments make the Superior combination sweeper the premier sanitary cleaning device of the age. THE COMBINATION SWEEPER RETAILS FOR $10 CASH. Subscribers to the OVERLAND MONTHLY old and new will be supplied with the Superior Vacuum Sweeper for $4.95 when ordered with OVERLAND MONTHLY for One Year, Price $1.20. |
