IT'S VERY
UNFORTUNATE

To have an expensive taste
and a thin purse. It's more
unfortunate to buy a cheap
article and pay an expensive
price. The best, although it
costs more in the beginning,
is sure to be the cheapest in
the end. We have Pianos at
low prices that are very good,
but if you ask us which is the
best we are compelled to tell
you that the Chickering is the
Piano Too expensive you
say? Oh, no. Not if you con
slider tone, action and durabili-
ty; it's by far the cheapest in
the end. Catalogues and

FIRE PROOF QUALITIES
OF -
STRONG'S IMPROVED
3 PLY ROOFING.

While we claim that our Roofing is
fire-proof against burning cinders,
sparks. or pieces of fire falling upon it,
we do not claim that it will not burn
when exposed to an intense heat, but we
do claim thar it will resist exposure to
fire without injury, longer and better
than any kind of metal or other
form of roofing for the reason that
the materials of which it is compos-
ed and the method of manufacture rem
der 1t practically indestrucuble from
heat when in contact with the surface,
which under such circumstances simply
forms a crust which retains its natural
position as acts as a protection TO the
building. The fact thar it does RETAIN
/ IT'S NATURAL POSITION when eX-
posed TO heat is selfeyident that it
would be a great advantage in protect
ing the shoathing aud other woodwork
/ IN cases where fire or heat come in con-
tact with the surface of our Roofing,
/ while a metal roof, AS soon as il comes
/ i'm contact with heat, buckles and dies
/ to pieces, leaving the sheathing and 9TH
er woodwork exposed and at the same
/ time leaving an opening through the
roof which gives the flame draft and
causes the woodwork to burn more read
/ lily; whereas STRONG'S IMPROVED
/ 3-PLN ROOFING has tendency to
check the progress of the fire, aud in
many cases saves the building from to-
| tai destruction.
