Hot Water in Itself Is Not a New Discovery, But In
exhaustible Hot Water Never Became Available Till
the Invention of the Automatic Gas Water Heater
You know it's the sum total of little conveniences that look large
on tlic home horizon these are the niceties of living.
The Automatic Gas Water Heater furnishes steaming hot water
at the turn of a faucethot water in the middle of the night, in case
of sudden illness or emergency hot water for the morning oath, no
matter how many tubfuls the maid and laundress have previously
drawn hot water for a sizzling hot bath to break up a cold hot
water for quick shaving hot water by the cupful or by the tubful
simply inexhaustible and in the Summer time you get hot .water
without the discomfort of fire in the kitchen or furnace.
The Automatic Gas Water Heater turns on and lights the gas in
its own burners when you open any faucet in the house-heats the
water flowing through its copper coils extinguishes its gas when
you close the faucet.
In the average home the supply of hot water (oftener lukewarm
water) is restricted by a limited tank supply.
Compare the shortcomings of your present water heater with the
luxurious hot water service furnished by1 the Automatic Gas Water
Heater. Order one today. See it "self -operating" at our show-,,
