The Kitchen Heater Means
Kitchen Comfort in Winter
The kitchen heater attachment to the gas
range easily holds fire over night. In the morn
ing tl.j i Jon is warm, there are no fires to
build, and Lreakfast is quickly prepared on the
gas range.
It enables gas range comfort through the
winter. Burns garbage, trash or solid fuel and
is made to radiate heat. Two places on top
for warming or cooking. Avoids the expense
and bother of setting up and taking down the
solid fuel stove.
An order placed now insures early delivery.
