All good furniture is an investment. In satisfaction, beauty and
comfort it pays constant dividends.
But The Kroehler Bed Davenport Goes Farther
It returns a money dividend in addition to the dividends in comfort and beauty that all
good furniture pays. It is, moreover, a great convenience, for it provides a spare bed
without taking up a spare room.
You can get along with one less room, save the difference in rent and save coal and
housework if you have a bed davenport.
A bed davenport does not take up extra space. You must have seating accommodations,
and nothing furnishes more in the space than a bed davenport.

discomfort or financial loss, through any suspension of or deterioration
m service. '
It has been the policy of this company to constantly improve the
street railway service m the cities we serve. There has been marked im
