How strong and firm it is, with its neat fire-box and sturdy legs!” exclaim the housewives as they see it exhibited on the stand, its copper shining like burnished gold. “What an ideal Xmas gift it would make, and so cheap too. There is no doubt Methven’s are the best.” Mrs. Jones, a busy housewife, buys one, and eagerly awaits Monday morning when she will use her new copper. Monday arrives and sees Mrs. Jones beginning her big washing. She lights the handsome copper and soon the clothes are merrily boiling Soon she finishes, puts the clothes in the basket, and takes them to the line. “How white and clean they are!” she exclaims as she lifts them out, “No black specks on them to-day, as formerly with other coppers. Methven makes washing a pleasure. “How quickly it boils too —ten minutes to twelve and my washing drying, my copper clean and shining. With other coppers I should be still bent over the tub, rubbing.” “Methven and Co. have other things too; seamless solid drawn copper boilers. Their gas-coppers are unexcelled, standing high off the ground, with a tap to let off water as well as the gas conveniences. One or the reasons why Meiiven productions are so popular is because they are har dsome as well as useful.” Mrs. Jones changes into an afternoon frock and taking a book goes to her pet arm-chair on the balcony. As she sinks on to the soft cushions, she exclaims: “What a change since 1 have been using a Methven copper. Washing day is now a pleasure. I can finish early, have time for reading; while my clothes are drying on the line. I shall tell my friends of the many advantages of Methven. It boils quickly and cleanly, makes the* clothes whiter, enables me to finish easily and spend my afternoon in pleasure. With it washing-day is never tiresome and Methven’s are not only useful but handsome —so cheap. Shall I ever end chanting the praises of a Methven?” Siethverr. Gas Co open Just turn on thecas.
