It consists of a metal cylinder, with cleets on the inner surface, and an interior cylinder of wood with cleets. There is a space of from six to eight inches between the two cylinders. One crank turns both cylind&rs at the same time in opposite direc- tions, rapidly creating suds, forcing the water through the clothes, and effectually removing the dirt. These are of 3 sizes, at |12, |14, and $16 each. Patent Portable Mangle. Fig. 414 is an admirable Mangle for mangling linen or cotton clothes, and the results are every way superior to the ordinary ironing process with heated irons. The rollers are operated upon by weights and levers contained in the lower or closed part of the case, and exercise a pressure, when in use, of many tons. For ironing bed and table linen, towels, etc., it is without an equal, and when closed, forms a sightly piece of furniture.
