dles of sterling silver so that they cannot wear through
and plated bowls or tines and steel blades. A special pur
chase of this new kind of serving pieces has arrived-

With fuel at its piesent levels, it is all important that the maximum of heat be se
cured from the minimum of fuel. These are no days for a reckless fuel-consuming
stove. And, too, due consideration should be taken of one's health requirements and
the necessity of keeping; a proper warmth in the home. It is time now that those who
contemplate the purchase of a new heater make investigation so that their money may
be spent to best advantage.
The Meier & Frank Company suggests
s
A "Universal" Heater
as most perfectly meeting with modern requirements in the matter of efficiency and
economy. We have wood heaters, coal heaters, briquet heaters, combination coal and
wood heaters of this famous make. We desire to call particular attention to the spe

"Air Blast" Combination
Wood and Coal
Heater
The Air Blast has strong claims to rec
ognition as the greatest fuel-saving heater
on the market. With its new and scientific
overhead draft construction it supplies an
abundance of superheated air directly over
the fuel chamber.
It Burns the Smoke
and gases thus assuring the greatest per
centage of heating efficiency. The over
draft also prevents the customary free es
cape of the heat through the smoke pipe
and deflects it to the floor where it does
good. The Air Blast has other exclusive
features.
Universal Combination
Ranges
which are really two complete ranges oc
cupying the space ordinarily required for
only one range and which burn wood and
coal or gas separately or at the same time
are here exclusively.
Universal Pipeless
Furnaces
the famous asbestos insulated kind pio
neers among pipeless furnaces and yet the
most improved of modern types are also
sold. here exclusively. Heat the entire
home through one register. Better circu
lation. More heat with less fuel. No pipes
in the basement.
