The Manhattan Laundry is more interested in domg BETTER work than CHEAPER work, although Manhattan prices are not high. All water used is softened by a-mineral process. THIS IS A ‘VIANHA’ITAN FEATURE. Washington water is 8 points hard. By our filtration process the’ lime is taken from the water, leaving it soft and pure like rain water. This re- duces the wear on the clothes at least 25%. member that washing, whether at home or at a laundry, will take the “life” out of the garments unless soft water is used. This special mineral zeolite filtration system means CLEANER clothes, since soap lathers more freely in soft water. All clothes sent to the Manhattan pass through an antiseptic process, as ad- vocated by the Health Department. The system of checking used at the Manhattan insures your getting back ALL your own clothes, and your table linens will never be marked. The point we wish all contestants to remember is this: The Manhattan wants to be known by the quality of its work. We want to prove through the carefulness of our employes the superiority of our laundrying and the prompt- ness of our service, that it PAYS to send laundry to the Manhattan. Say all this in a few short words and if you can say it better than any one else you will receive our check for $50.
