The Gas Company of the City of Washington, D. C, Compelled by Public
Demonstration and Popular Demand to Connect Their Service Pipes to
The Celebrated "Mew Method" Gas
Ranges
This Is th
That Win
e Burner
s the Crown of Victory figsT
Guaranteed to Save
One-Quarter of
Your Gas
The body of the "New Method" Gas Range is
made entirely of steel, and all outside parts are
treated with best bakin? japan, baked on both
sides of the plates. This finish insures lasting
qualities equal to castiron. They cannot rust out.
Apartment-house owners will have no other
pas range, after giving the "New Method" a
trial. .
We carry many styles from the single-burner
plate to the high cabinet gas range. Special in
troductory prices on all.
City Forces Gas
Company to Time
The Washington, D. C, Gas Monopoly
Company refused to permit the '.'New
Method" Gas Ranges to be connected with
their mains. Thereupon, the "New
Method" company went before the peo
ple of Washington with a publicity cam
paign. They showed the consumers just
WHY the gas company did not want the
"New Method" Gas Ranges used dem
onstrating uion the street corners day
after dav that the "Xew Method" Gas
Ranges consumed ONE -FOURTH less
gas than tin? old style gas burners on
other ranges. The public demonstrations
were so conclusive and so satisfactory
that the City Council passed an ordinance
requiring the gas company to connect the
"New Method" with their mains on the
same footing with other makes of range.
Since then the gas company has gone out
of the gas range business. The' sold a
castiron range that was a great success
as a GAS CONSUMER.
A similar fight is being waged today in
the Citr of New Orleans.

AH other gas ranges are built alike very much" alike but
the "New Method" is decidedly different. It possesses
eighteen superior points over any other style. Let us show
you this week let us show you tomorrow. It will be con
nected free and you have an opportunity, to test it for a single
dollar payment. Let us show you.
OLD STYLE
What Is the Great
Improvement?
1 -
Too will naturally ask, "What is the Improve-'
mentf First we call your attention to the old
style burner used on all gas ranges, except the
V New Method." The ow-styie Durner is mue w . '...,
castiron, very thick and very soft iron, to permit of the small jet holes
"being drilled through it. Notice the small size of the jet holes ancj also
the small size of the opening for the passage of gas from the service pipe.
Compare thisTrarner with the "New. Method" burner held aloft by tha
figure.
It Is All in the Burner Employed
The "New Method" burner, as sh6wn in the illustration (held by the' figure of
the woman) is made from sheets of stamped steel, heavily enameled like the
ordinary cooking vessel. The large opening in the stem of the bpner (grasped by
the figure shown) permits of a large volume of air from the mixers to blow into
the burner along with the gas; the funnel-shaped -jet - holes through the than
sides of the "New Method" burner permit the gas and air to reach the point ot
combustion without friction. And this gas and air are so thoroughly mixed by
the time the match is applied that there is no "popping back." This danger is
entirely avoided in the "New Method."; You will readily see that the more an- or
oxygen you burn with the gas, the less gas will be consumed, and the same results
gained.' The air mixers are easily, regulated . according to the gas. pressure m
the mains. ' '
And they are Guaranteed to save One-Quarter of your Gas.
These "New Method" burners are vitrified enamel cannot rust, crack or break;
may be removed and washed like enamel ware.
