AN ELECTRIC RANGE
Means K itchen C o m fo rt
Less watching is required when you cook on an
electric range. The radiated heat that is even and
easily regulated causes small loss of moisture.
There is no fear of burning—food may be left
cooking for honrs, if necessary—and stirring and
taming are unnecessary.
Xou can save your meat bill by using an elactric
rango, for you will find the radiated heat causes
from 15 per cent to 2 > per centlesa shrinkage.
It is the ideal way of eooking
from every standpoint, clean,
cool and convenient Let us tell
yeu about the fireleea cooker
principle which Is used in our
electric ranges.
