USE A GAS HEATER FOR
KITCHEN WARMTH
Keep your clean, efficient gas range in-operation
Why go back to the muss and dirt and bother of your
p coal or wood range in wintertime? It’s not such a great
economy, after all, because solid fuel is expensive. And
> think of the bother! Aren’t your time and strength worth
something?
A little gas heater will quickly warm up the kitchen on '
, cold mornings and you can regulate the heat more easily
than in a stove built primarily for cooking. Continue to
uije your clean, convenient gas range for cooking, and
;? have no fuel to lug, no ashes to carry, no fires to build, no
m hard, slavish work.
