Our experience with gas mantles
dates back to the time when the first
mantles were put on the market. That
means that we have had experience
with mantles. Among the thousands
that we have har died we never used a
mantle as good as our Never-Break
guaranteed mantle. Costs nothing to
try one, If not as we say. Guaranteed
to outlast ten other mantles and gives
better light. We handle mantles from
10 cents up. All mantles are the best
in their class.
