WE ANNOUNCE THE ARRIVAL OF A COM
PLETE LINE OP "HOT POINT" ELECTRIC
HEATING DEVICES. The power Co. has made a
heating rate of 3 1-2 cents for the first fifty and 3
cents for all over 50 kilowatt hours used in one
month.
This means that you can do your baking, cook
ing, ironing, etc., at a very moderate cost.
This makes electricity cheaper than coal or wood.
It means freedom from smoke, soot, ashes; no fuel
to carry; no overheated kitchen; meals prepared
in half the time. We give daily demonstrations of
"Hot Point" devices at our office, or, if you pre
fer, we will gladly demonstrate them in your own
home without cost or obligation on your part.
