the ideal summer cooking stoves?
If not, let our statesmen explain
them to you. There is a blue flame
stove here that will make the ex-
planation easy to comprehend. 1t
is the New Process Blue Flame
Oil Stove-so good that we are
able to sell it with strong guaran-
tee. 1t bakes, broils, fries, boils
and roasts-there is absolutely no
danger in its use. 1t was good
stove last year-much better this
year, as it has a number of new
improvements. And to make it all
the more worthy of your attention
it is not high priced. For stove

Besides the New Process we
carry the Puritan Wickless Blue
Flame Stove, for which we are
agents in Sacramento. It's safe to
say that The Puritan is the only

on the market. We don't merely
say that it will work perfectly-we
demonstrate that it does, and guar
antee that it will continue to do
SO.
