DIRECTIONS FOR USE. 1st. Soak your Clothes the night before Washing in clean cold water. 2nd. Put 4 buckets full or 10 gallons of water into a common boiler, then put in half pound of hard or a pint of soft soap, and j pint of this liquid, stir and boil the mixture until the soap is dissolved. 3rd. Wring the clothes out of the water in which they have been soak- ing and rub soap upon the most soiled places, and place them loosely in the mixture, and boil thirty minutes, stir.ng them occasionally. 4ih. Remove, and rinse them thorouglily, immediately after boiling, and then blue them, and your work will be done to perfection. 5ih. In case the clothes are very much soiled they may be slightly rubbed before rinsing, otherwise a good rinsing is all that is required. You can boil two or three lota in the same mixture; if more water is added, put in liquid and soap in proportion. 6th. For all common purposes of washing and cleaning, use a little soap, and a half gill of the iVlagnetic Liquid to a bucket full of water. When used in connection with J^oap it has no equal in cleaning Windows, Paint, Marble, Oil Cloth, washing Dishes of all kinds, cleaning Milk Uten- siU, scrubbing Floors, &c. Warranted not to injure any thing.

T. KING & CO i Entered according to the Act of Congras in ihe year 1851. by J. T. KING, in the Clerk's Office of Dist. Court of Md. By the use of this Liquid in a common boiler, a family washing can be done in about an hour. It will not injure the finest fabric. This is a truth which no one who understands the principle upon which it operates will attempt to dispute. There are now in this city over a thousand families that use it regu- larly, who will not only certify that it does not injure the fabric, but that clothing will wear much longer than when washed by the old process, besides saving the time and trouble of sewing on buttons rubbed off on the wash-board. ^ Our friends have tried a great niany experiments with the Lic^uid, almost 10 every kind of garment now in use has been washed with it, and in no instance that we know of has it ever proved injurious. We are more anxious than others can be to ascertain whether it is injurious in any instance, and therefore have given it away for tliat purpose ; and we always feel ihankful to those who will take the trouble to test it, and report !o us the result. Our confidence that it will not injure clothing is based on the fact that we have subjected it to severe tests. We have placed white cotton and linen gar- ments in the pure Liquid, and allowed them to remain forty-eight hours; then on being taken out and rinsed, they were found not to have sustained the slightest injury. When we consider further that for washing purposes we use only a half pint in ten gallons of water — that is, one hundred and sixty parts of water to one part of the Liquid — the idea of injury to the fabric cannot for a moment be entertained. Another most convincing proof of its perfectly harmless character is, that it will not injure the skin. Caustic properties of sufficient power to act on the texture of clothes, would certainly manifest themselves on an application of the Liquid to the ski^ ; but so far is this from being the case, that a constant use of it for many months in washing the hands and face has proved it to pro- du e beneficial results. When u-sed for this purpose, the proportions are about half a gill of the Liquid to a basin of water — soap to be applied as usual. These facts, in connection with our knowledge that the ingredients of which it is composed are entirely harmless, enables us to say positively that it will not injure any substance to which it may be applied for cleansing purposes. A gentleman from Ohio related to us the following which transpired in his store when he received the Washing Liquid. The village Doctor happened in just as he opened the box. Good morning, Mr. . Good morning, Doctor. Another humbug! After considerable discussion with the Doctor, who was one of those men who adhere tenaciously to an opinion when once expressed, Mr. convinced him that it would save a great deal of hard rubbing, and that the cloth would therefore wear much longer than when washed by the old process. Well, says the Doctor, all that may be very true, but you cannot get people to use it, for it must be injurious to the hands. While they were discussing this point, one of Mr. 's customers came in, a good honest, hard working man, whose hands were black with dirt. Mr. , why don't you wash your hands? The fact is, Mr. , I am ashamed to say, I have not washed them for a long time, and the reason is that washing always makes them sore. Now, Doctor, we have a chance to test it, at the same time filling;a basin with water, and putting in about a gill of the Washing Liquid. Mr. , agreeing with the Doctor, was afraid to try it; but at last was pre- vailed upon by Mr. , who promised to pay him good wages for every day's work he might lose on account of it. At first the man dipped his fingers into the basin and rubbed a little down the back of his hand, which left a white streak. After doing this a number of times, he took courage and put both hands in, and with little soap the dirt soon disappeared, leaving his hands white and clean. Mr. gave him a bottle, with instructions to wash with it regu- larly night and morning, and report to him the result. Not long after this occurrence, Mr, met the man and asked him how he liked the Washing n LIquul. First rale, was In's reply. He also said his hands wcro now perfectly well. Mr. has since been a good customer for the Liquid, not only for washing face and hands, but to do his family washing. The Doctor was obliged to acknowledge its good qualities, but could not give up hio favorite word humbug. Tiie principle heretofore explained in the application of the Liquid to the clothing, was operative in cleansing and curing the man's hands, it penetrated the pores of the sld.n, and dissolved the particles of dirt lodged there, which had previously irritated and prevented them from healing. A spoonful of the Liquid may be draidc without the least injury. We have often drank it and have given it to others with beneficial effects. It will give immediate relief in cases of acid stomach. A spoonful of it has been put into green peas while cooking, and the parties say it made them look and taste much better than usual. We do not mention this to induce people to use it as a medicine, or for cooking purposes, but to show tliat when used in small quantities it is not inju- rious to the human system. We have heard persons say in objection to the use of the Liquid, not from having tested its qualities, but from what they thought to be a correct principle, "that any preparation that removes the dirt so expeditiously as this, must injure the fabric." This is without doubt true in some instances, that is, an article may be prepared that will take off the dirt and at the same time injure the fabric ; and we have no doubt that there are a great many preparations in market, used for washing purposes, that will do this; but the remark is in no respect applicable to our own. We do not claim that, by the use of this, we can make an old worn out garment into a new one, or, that by it we change the immutable laws of nature, by which every thing undergoes a change ; garments will wear out, and we do not pietend to pre- vent it ; but we do claim that an article will wear a third longer by the use of this preparation. All who are acquainted with v/ashing know that the hardest articles to wash are those that are soiled by perspiration, and the reason of this is, that the dirt is absorbed into the fabric and held fast by the oily particles of matter from the system. This Liquid being an alkali, has an affinity for the grease, which is thoroughly extracted, and the dirt left free to be removed without hard rubbing. Alkali and grease are used to make soap, and no one objects to the use of soap as injurious; now as the most important ingredient contained in the Liquid enters into the composition of soap, it is clear that any objection urged against the one would be equally applicable to the other. It may be used advantageously in all cases where soap is required. It cleans all kinds of metals, and for cleaning printers' types it has no equal. To the reasonable and intelligent, enough has been urged to satisfy them that the article we recommend is no humbug ; and we shall leave the subject with the request to those who prejudge and oppose all improvements, that when convinced of their error with regard to this matter, they will have the candor to acknowledge it, and thereby aid in giving that relief to the poor wash-woman which this discovery is so eminently calculated to bestow. The time thus redeemed may be used by her in the improvement of those faculties mercifully conferred on all without distinction of condition, and the interests of humanity and religion be thereby effectually promoted. 12 RECOMMENDATIONS Baltimore, December 2, 1851, We the undersigned having seen J. T. King's Patent Washing Apparatus in operation at the Fair of the Maryland Institiite, have no hesitation in saying that it will accomplish all he claims for it. The most soiled clothing were put into the Apparatus, and in five minutes came out perfectly clean and looked much whiter than when washed by the old process. JOHN S.

From the Baltimore Jlmerican, ^November 15, 1851. " In the upper machine room of the hall we notice in operation one of the washing machines recently invented by Mr. J. T. King of this city, an appa- ratus which to us appears to be one of great utility, and entirely free from the many faults which have heretofore caused such universal prejudice against washing machines. The machine is exceedingly simple in its construction, easily managed, and is based upon correct principles. To describe briefly the one on exhibition, (which is on a large scale and sufficient for the purpose of a large hotel,) we may say it consists of a copper cylindrical boiler, which is so arranged as to revolve over a furnace, the flue of which passes entirely around the boiler. In washing, the boiler is filled half full of hot water strongly im- pregnated with common soap — the clothes are then put in and the opening in the end of the boiler fastened up so as to render it water tight, an escape for the excess of steam in the upper half of the boiler not occupied by the water and clothes, being of course provided to prevent its bursting. ^ *• The boiler is then revolved moderately backward and forward, by which 13 action the projections on the inside of the boiler (which we should hate men- tioned before,) moves the clothes first into the steam and then into the suds. No matter how soiled the clothes may be, in from three to five minutes this ope- ration cleanses them perfectly, and as effectually as tlie most vigorous and industrious laundress could render them. The operation as described, was performed at the Fair in the presence of several of our most extensive hotel proprietors and experienced housekeepers, all of whom expressed the fullest satisfaction at the manner in which the work was performed. The philosophy of the apparatus is readily comprehended. The most difficult garments to wash, as every housekeeper knows, are those that are soiled with any oily or greasy substance ; and the powerful action of steam, which by this machine is brought directly in contact with and made to penetrate every thread of clothing, instantly dissolves and separates the greasy particles, and thus insures the thorough cleansing of the article. We w^ould call the especial attention of housekeepers, and hotel keepers particularly, to this washing machine." " Washington, June 14, 1851. ' Mr. J. T. King, a dry goods dealer of Baltimore, having a little leisure time, applied himself to the invention of a washing machine. A fortnight ago he came to this city, where he is favorably known, bringing with him a model and a full sized apparatus. His object was to secure a patent. While await- ing the transaction of his business by the examiners in the Patent Office, he set up his machine at the house of a friend, in a certain neighborhood in this me- tropolis, where he knew that his skill was certain to be appreciated. The arrragements are extremely simple, embracing a small steam boiler, the water is heated by means of a furnace beneath it. A few spoonfuls of his popular Liquid produce rich suds ; and the turning of the crank completes the opera- tion. It was astonishing to witness the rapidity with which the work was done, fifty small pieces of clothing were cleansed in about five minutes! We may safely say that fifteen hundred pieces can he washed during ten hours. But this, of course, is independent of the wringing and rinsing. ♦« Mr. King extended an invitation to some of his lady acquaintances to send him articles to be washed. As the terms, gratis, were so reasonable, it was not long before he had piles of bed quilts, blankets, sheets, in fact almost every woven thing, which, by wear, requires cleaning. And such a washing and rinsing was never before known in that locality; and all our citizens would have thought so, too, if they had chanced to see the many colored and many shaped articles which were spread on the fences, wood-houses, and grass plats, and which dangled on the heavy-laden clothes line, the old song, ' There's nae luck about the house upon a washing day,' did not apply on that occasion." — Baltimore Clipper. The following is from Brown's new marble hotel, Washington, one of the cleanest, best arranged, and most magnificent hotels of its size in the United States, the proprietors of which are justly celebrated for their hospitality and kindness to strangers. The secret of their success is that ihey patronize the improvements of the age, and never count the cost of an article which will promote the comfort of their guests. 2 14 Washington, December 1, 1851. J. T. Ktng — Sir : Having witnessed, with Mrs. Brown, at the Fair of the Maryland Institute, the operations of your Washing Apparatus, the astonishing rapidity with which you washed a large quantity of the most soiled clothing with scarcely any lahor, and apparently without the least injury to the finest fabric, has induced us to give one a trial. When you come to Washington I should be pleased to make arrangements with you to put one up in our hotel. The principle upon which it operates is so simple, and it is so easily managed, that I have no doubt you could sell a large number in this city. The can of Washing Liquid you sent us has been fairly tested, and Mrs. Brown says it is a first rate article, and will save a great deal of hard rub- bing. Yours, &c. MARSHALL BROV/N, Brown's Hotel. FrSn a Philadelphia paper, September 4, 1851. King's Magnetic Washing Liqiiid, as sold by Messrs. Ambslcr & SchafTlcr, at No. 225 South Fifth street, 2d door below Lombard, is possessed of all the virtues that they claim for it. Why will people stand at their tubs for hours and work themselves to death, when by calling at No. 225 south Fifth street, they can get an article, for a mere trifle, which will save four-fifths of the hard labor, and give the clothes a purer whiteness, ihan can be accomplished by any other means } Tiiis fluid is a perfect godsend to washer-women, and only wants one trial to insure success. It is a bad plan to pronounce all such things hum- bugs ; there are no doubt many shameful impostors, but there are also many that are honest, and you ought not to form an opinion until you try them. Wo will answer for the genuineness of this article. Messrs, J. T. King & Co.— Gents. : In recommending your Washing Liquid, you are at liberty to use my name, for it has been fairly tested at my house, and you can hardly say any thing in its favor that it does not deserve. The prin- ciple upon which it operates is correct. It makes the clothes very white, and I have every reason to believe they will wear much longer than when washed by the old process. It has entirely changed my family's washing arrange- ments • before using the Liquid, it took our wash-woman the most of the week to get through washing; but now, by using the Liquid, on Tuesday evening every thing is washed, starched and ironed, ready for use. Your Washing Ap- paratus 1 believe to be a good invention, and have no doubt of its success. Yours, with respect, EDWARD S. NORRIS, 237 Baltimore street. Messrs. J. T. King & Co. — Gents. : It gives me pleasure to state that T have seen a number of your Washing Machines in operation, and am pleased to say that I consider that they will perform all that is claimed for them as to speed and efficiency. They are a valuable invention, and must in time be in the hands of every family who wish to keep up with the spirit and improvements of the age, both in the saving of time and money. Yours truly, &c., JAMES B. EDWARDS, No. 22 Charles street. 15 Baltimore, December 28, 1851. Mr. King — I take pleasure in recommending your Washing Liquid and Washing Apparatus to my friends and acquaintance. You are aware that all the clothing at my house has been washed with the Washing Liquid, either in a plain boiler or the Apparatus, ever since you first put it up, nearly a year ago; and a great many of my friends have used it, and all are pleased with it; therefore what I say of it I say knowingly. The Liquid, if properly used, makes the clothes look much whiter, saves a great deal of time and hard work, and I know from experience that they will wear much longer tlian when washed by hand or the wash-board, or by any other process of rubbing. Those you have washed for us in the Apparatus have given great satisfaction. Washing, I believe, is the hardest work woman has ever to do; and when I think of the incessant toil of the poor wash-AVomen from morning till night, it not only affords me pleasure to recommend your Washing Liquid and Apparatus, but I consider it a duty I owe to suffering humanity. M. C. GUEST, 193 West Lombard street. Frkderick, December 29, 1851. J. T. King & Co. — I have sent the can back for ten gallons of your Wash- ing Liquid, which you will please fill and send up I am pleased that your fluid meets with such good sale, especially when it has to contend with so many other kinds. Yours respectfully, GEORGE J. FISCHER. Washington, January 5, 1852. Messrs. James T. King & Co. — Gents. : Will you please send us twenty gallons mere of your "Magnetic Liquid," that great desideratum in the cleans- ing process, which it appears to have been reserved for you to discover. We have been engaged in the sale of your Liquid ever since you discovered it, and with one single exception, it has given universal satisfaction ; and on the score of economy it is much cheaper, we believe, than any of the old methods, such as soda and the like — besides its being so expeditious in its effect. Yours truly, T. W. JOHNSON & CO. J. W. GUEST & CO., our General Agents, will sell the Liquid, Washing Apparatus, or the Clothes Drying Machines, wholesale or retail, at our prices. Their office is No. 17U West Lombard street, two doors above Hanover street, Baltimore, Md. All orders addressed to them will be promptly attended to. KING'S PATENT WASHING APPARATUS. In addition to its application for washing, it is the best boiler ever invented for steaming purposes. Farmers can make it very convenient for steaming food for cattle ; it is also useful to wheelwrights to steam wood. One great advantage in it, when used for this purpose is, that steam can be created almost immediately; this is done by putting a small quantity of water into the boiler and turning it. As soon as you stop turning, shut the damper over the fire to prevent injury to the boiler. The steam escapes through the pipe, which may be conducted into any vessel or box where it may be required. 16 WHOLESALE AGENTS. BALTIMORE. A ye rs & Son, Grocers, Pratt near Light street. Brown, Wm.
