I SJiweon - Strunsky pleads for more
and better listeners in society. He
thinks it would Le a great thing for
any social gathering if there wore one
good listener preent. This listener

Years of Experience Have Proven to k;e
That the MAJESTIC Range IS the Best
"Strange, that for years, I couldn't see -that trying to get good work from
an old, wornout range, merely to save the price of a new one, was not true
economy. My Great Majestic has more than earned its cost in the saving of
fuel alone, because the open seams and joints in my old, worn-out range
where the bolts were loose and the putty had crumbled away, made me
burn twice as much fuel as necessarv.
"Talk about luck in baking "luck" is nothing but good oven and my Majestic
oven is simply perfect. I can depend on it absolutely every day. I believe father
and the children are happier and 1 know we have better meals at less cs-
pense with our Majestic. "
Don't Buy Any Range Sight Unseen
Buying a range isn't an every day transaction. To be absolutely sure of complete
satisfaction don't buy from Drintcd descriptions see the Great Maicslic (dealer in nearlv
