Refrigerators and
Ice Chests for 1905.

AS the Refrigerator season is rap
idly approaching, we desire to call
special attention to the Peerless"
Refrigerator, which we are again
handling 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-alr
dry kilns; the panels are in one piece and
are grooved into the rails and stiles, Whlcn
are mortised together in the most substan-
tial manner, making perfectly tight CAP
met The joining and cabinet work are the
best obtainable in refrigerator; the inner
case or body is of kiln-dried, closely
matched, odorless wood, lined with metal
and fastened together with hardwood
cleats, which support the outside case
making a refrigerator which can not be
eeualed for strength, durability and beauty.
The space between the inner ana outer
cases is filed with the best non-conducting
material known-mneralwool filling-and
this filling is put in that 1t cannot settle
or shake down. The floors of the provision
chamber are covered with metal and are
on a level with the bottom of the door,
making 1t easy to keep clean, II anything
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

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
eadily of all impurities :

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
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
portant features, as they prevent the pos
sibilty 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 1t,
without the least hesitation, to those wish
ing a strictly first-class Refrigerator-one
and one that will not use large amount
OF ice-at reasonable figure.
We show the Peerless" in all
