Now You Can Decide
.- Suppose'"- yoii'-'accidfc today- to waste your
time and strength no longer over an old
fashioned range that regardless of cost you
will have leisure you will . have an electric
range: ...
WILL YOU HAVE MORE LEISURE TIME?
With controlled electric cooking you simply
place your dinner in the range, turn the switch
and the afternoon is yours. You will find
the food ready on your return.
WILL YOUR WORK BE MADE EASIER?
i The modern kitchen has no place for match
box or coal hod, kindling or ash container
electricity is the modern slave.
CAN YOU AFFORD IT?
Uy actual check through our accounts, the
cost of electric cooking is considerably less
than cooking by fuel. The budget plan clim
inalcs hc first cost issue. The electric way
is cheaper.
LET IT BE TODAY.
