The old-fashioned, stuffy, sweltering kitchen with its
smoke stained walls, ceilings and curtains, in which many
hours of needless drudgery, cleaning and scouring of pots

of two of the best known manufacturers of electric cooking equip
ment . . . Hotpoint and Westinghouse. Either of these fine ranges

ice and either is a bargain at the greatly reduced price at which it is
being offered this month. Now, you too can replace your old-fashioned
cookstove and enjoy the convenience and perfection of mod
ern electric cookery.
Our every effort is directed toward the best possible electric
service to our customers. Our constant aim is to improve your satis
faction with electric service. Our action in offering these ranges to
you at this time is solely in the interest of economical, efficient,
electric service. We believe it will be much to your advantage to
trade in your fuel range on one of these ranges,. before the limited
supply we have secured is sold. We will make a liberal allowance for
your old fuel range and install without extra charge, the electric
range you select, if within the city limits. Very easy terms and this
