Reason Why the A-B Leads
The A-B has more practical points in its favor
than any other gas rantre made and it Is actual
comparisons that always result in the choowring
of the famous A-B. Women who appreciate
convenience, economy, service and beauty all de
cide in favor of ths A-B.
First in Convenience
The A-B ia deadgned maximum convenience. The
oven and broiler are elevated, eliminating the
back breaking stooping. The oven Is roomy,
broiling pans are of white enamel or aluminum,
rnakine cleaning very easy. The burner grates
'are large with plenty of space, and the warming
shelf is also extra linen. The shelf lighter for
all burners does away with, matches.
First in Economy
The flrnt cost of the A-B Is 1am tfian tnany .
charge for Inferior makes. The special construc
tions of the burners and mlxnra make gas con
sumption 253 less than usual. It Is a fact that
the Having in gas consumption will eventually,
pay for the range. -.-.
First in Sanitation '
"""" " V
Sanitation In cooking is of vast Importance and
in every detail the A-B is made ror aosotut
cleanliness. It has a fire enameled finish that
can be wiped off with a. damp cloth and which
is always blight and clean. The canopy Is tils
lined, the broiler pan and dirt tray Is of heavy
white enamel. The oven lining ts rust proof.
All castings are -smooth; no lodging place for.
