A Practical Demonstration
will be given at our store December 9th to 14th inclusive. Everybody attending will be ser
ved with delicious, evenly browned biscuits made from White Mountain Flour and good Seal
Blend coffee and cream. . -
You are invited to come, at any time that is most convenient, and learn how good these
biscuits are and see how easily they are baked in a LAUREL TWIN-FLUE RANGE.
Don't stay away because you are not interested in buying a range at present. ; You will
want one some day, and may never again have as good an opportunity to learn why all ranges
do not bake and cook as quickly and economically nor with the same uniformly successful re
sults which any LAUREL RANGE will give you.
As a special inducement to you who will need a range soon, we offer, provided you pur
chase or order a LAUREL TWIN-FLUE RANGE during this demonstration and sale,
Your choize of three very useful premiums
An $8 oo Set of "Wear Ever"
Aluminum Ware .
. This is the best set of aluminum ware you could buy no matter
. what price you were willing to pay. "Wear Ever" contains only pure
aluminum. It is unequalled for any kind of cooking. Aluminum ware
is light and always remains.clean and bright. It will not crack like
enameled, ware; it will last a lifetime and will always be valued for its
superior cooking qualities. Food flavors are not absorbed by aluminum
and foods' which are easily burned in utensils of other materials are not
ven scorched in aluminum ware under the same conditions. Remember
we give this premium only with Laurel Twin-Flue Ranges ordered dur
ing the demonstration.

An Electric Toaster
Of all the articles entering into the pre
paration of breakfast none will be more ap
preciated than this toaster after you have
once used' it. It operates on the ordinary
electric light current and is furnished with a
long flexible cord for attaching to any light
socket. All parts are, heavily nickeled and
being plain are easily cleaned by merely rub
bing lightly with a cloth.
A 26-Piece Set of Handsome
Silverware
Containing, in all, 6 knives, 6 forks, 6 teaspoons, 6 medium size table
spoons, which can be used also for soup spoons, and one each, butter
knife and sugar shell. Every piece is warranted R. & B. silverware; a
guarantee of wearing quality going with each set. The design is a
beautiful Poppy Scroll which is so popular at the present time; it is
carefully raised and carved to give the proper effect. This set of silver
makes a valuable addition to any table service. Come in and examine
these premiums, which are now on display in our store.
It's Quick, Convenient
Toast is made right on your breakfast
table. You make it as required. It is al
ways hot and deliciously crisp and evenly
browned. There is no danger of burned or
blackened toast, as the heat is easily regulat
ed. The only cost of operating is a fraction
of a cent for electricity. Come in and see
what a simple and convenient apparatus this
toaster really is.
This demonstration which we will conduct is given to convince you that the stove is of
as much, if not of more, importance than the "cook." f . .
You will notice in the illustration shown above that the lids of the stove are numbered. In
other ranges than Laurels the heat passes only under Nos. 1, 2 and 3 when the direct draft is
opened. Laurel Twin-Flue Ranges are built differently; they heat the entire stove top; they use
less fuel; they heat the entire oven to a uniform temperature when you want it, but do not
heat the oven at all when you don't want it This saves fuel and makes the kitchen more
comfortable. The special Laurel Twin-Flue construction which makes this possible will be explained
with many other desirable Laurel features during each day of this demonstration.
Don't Forget The Dates December 9, 10, 11, i2, 13 and 14. A useful
Souvenir will be given to every lady attending this sale.
Saturday, December 14 at 4 o'clock we will give away a
Laurel Steel Range Absolutely Free
