"ANCHOR"
Is the beet Steel Range on the market and the

In fact the Anchor Is the only Range on the
market that has any particularly distinct TEA
lures. The manufacturers of this range have
broken away from the worn out traditions of
range building and have constructed a dur
able and beautiful Range full of efficient,
modern features.
This Range is so constructed that the Smoke
FIue comes out at the Back, thereby leaving
ooth the top of the range well as the
arming closet without any distractions.
They are made from heavy Cold Rolled Steel
Plate, the bake oven being made of ten gauge
Steel Plate, this being the heaviest material
ever known in Steel Range construction. The
oven hues are double with thick Asbestos Card
Boards between the two steel plates, therefore

beauty Of the whole thing was
the refrigerator counter with
french.plate glass front and in
that front was display of pro-
ducts of Fitzgerald soil among
them young onions, radishes,
golden crown lettuce, parsnips,
boquet of french mustard and
new irish potatoes from seed
planted in February. Dressed,
plump, spring chickens, juicy
steak and roasts were tempting

appetizers-the latter being all
from one garden, that of c.

counter, we are told is the only

beautiful display are great blocks
of the frozen crystal which keep

vases on each side Of the new
scales filled with magnificent
roses completed the aesthetic
portion of the new enterprise.
