An Electric Range
Is a Thing of Beauty ,
Something every woman admires and wants in her kitchen
but not for beauty alone.
Because electric ranges employ no open flame for heat they are clean
and safe.
Because they are clean they are sanitary
Because they arc not subject to the whims of dampers and drafts and
flues they are reliable.
More thar. all else modern housewives prefer and use electric ranges
because they are economical and produce superior results with less trouhlt.
Ask about the new cooking and heating rate and decide to take advantage
of the low price time payment offer before it expires.

fact that he knew nothing of the addi

looked to Mrs. Hendricks for advice and
