Adequate, radiation, correctly installed, means heat that properly takes care of any desired varia tion in room temperatures. The fact that there is a separate heating unit (the Radiator) in each room, permits the keeping of a healthful tempera ture throughout the house. , The result is greater satisfaction, with less expense than with old-fashioned methods. When properly designed and installed, three or four filings in twenty-four hours, is all that is necessary with radiator heat, in even the coldest weather. Once you enjoy the comfortable, healthful warmth of "heat by radiators," installed by our force of skilled mechanics, you will be convinced that it is the most satisfactory method of heating. Let us explain why NOW is the best time to install radiator heating equipment. Nate Z weif el Sanitation Oilomatician Appliances ' f 1 fly
