One of the most important things to
be considered In house building nova
e days, is It's heating. During the past
decade. many heating arrangements
have been placed on the market. but
the acme of success waSNnot reached
until the Stanton Seamless Heater was
introduced into use. This Heater Is en-
tlrely new In its construction, the rad
iating sheet being in one single sheet
made of heavy flnnga steel, and the
end is bolted down 70 bed plate or
tho same material. The heads are Of
the same steel and arG cemented with
the best asbestos furnace cement and
tie bolts being only three and one-half
inches apart. the crate bars are heavy,
double osciliating, and anti-clinker.
Any kind Of fuel can be used, and the
fact that 1t uses less -fpel than any
other heater, Is an extrth point In its
favor making Il the best and most pop
ular heater on the market.
The heater has been on-t the market
since 1898, but its rapidly increasing
sales caused Henry Stanton, the in
ventor, to organize stock company, IN
February Of this year. with n capital or
$4,000, to enlarge the works. The new
works at Martins Ferry is 90Xl5O rect
and will give, when completed. work to
over one hundred skilled, men. with ia
cIlltles for increasing the capacity OF
the plant at any time. The officers OF
the company are: Presldept. George
J.. Spence; vice president and manager
Henry Stanton: Il. H. Rider secretary
and treasurer.

the best homes in Wheeling and Ohio.

singing its praise. \ postal card to the

The Egyptians were the first to brew
bccr. and they made drink from fer
mented barley and called It ''Wine from
Corn" and thought that Its drink was
necessary for the health and preserva-
tIOn of the human body. From them It
was given to the Greeks, Romans and
Gauls, and then handed down to the
present ages. But the beer of the an
Client days was not the beer OF to-day
as no life and health giving malts were
used. Hops were first used In England
during the reign OF Henry VIII, and so
unpopular was It's use that parliament
was petltloned against It, saying the
"Wicked weed would spoil the beer,
but the beverage made with barley
malt and hops became popular during
the reign Of Queen Elizabeth
In the meantime the Germans were
busy perfectlng the brewing OF beer
