Refrigerators and
Ice Chests for 1905.

AS the Refrigerator season IS
about at hand, we desire to call spe-
clal attention to the peerless" Re-
frlgerator, which we are again ham
ding for the sixth consecutive year.
We consider this the most easily
cleaned, most sanitary, most perfect
ice preserver and the most all-round
perfect Refrigerator ever put on the
market.
The construction of this Refrigerator is
of the very best; the outer case being of
selected ash, thoroughly dried in hot-air
dry kllns; the panels are in one piece, and
are grooved into the rails and stiles, which
are mortised together in the most substan-
al manner, making a perfectly tight cab
met. The joining and cabinet work are the
best obtainable in a refrigerator; the inner
case or body is of kln-dried, closely
matched, odorless wood, lined with metal
and fastened together with hardwood
cieats, which support the outside case.
making refrigerator which cannot be
equaled for strength, durability and beauty.
The space between the inner and outer
cases is filled with the best non-conducting
material known-mineral-wool tilling-and
this filling is SO put in that it cannot settle
or shake down. The floors of the provision
chamber are covered with metal and are
on level with the bottom of the door,

should be spilled in it; the walls of the
provision chamber are lined with metal of
the best quality, the joints being carefully
soldered to prevent anything spilled from
leaking through, which might cause the
case to swell; provision chambers are fur
nished with metal shelves-cleanliest made
and so open as to offer no obstruction to
the free circulation of air. The locks and
hinges are made of solid bronze. There is
not an inch of the entire inner surface
of the Peerless" but that can be cleaned
readily of all impurities.
The new sanitary cleanable fiue wall used

refrigerators 1t is a f1ue within a f1ue,
and operates upon the same principle as
the forced draft. The improved Peer
less Ice rack Is the most perfect of any
made and Is one of the leading features in
the construction and working of the Peer
less" system of refrigeration. 1t is made of
metal and braced and riveted in such a
manner as to give the greatest possible
strength. The Peerless" sanitary drain
pipe and drip cup, both of which are easily
removable, are circular in shape and i'm

sfbilfty of cold air escaping from the ice
chamber, or of warm air entering from the
outside Our very successful experience
during the past five years with this Re-
frigerator prompts us to recommend it,
without the least hesitation, to those wish
