Gentlemen:
We wish to say few words to you in
reference to your radiators, thirty of
which we have, as you know, been using
In our office building for several months.
Our office rooms are very large and
present some features that make the
heating of them rather a difficult prob
lem; we were, therefore, doubtful at
first whether your heaters would give
entire satisfaction, but we are now glad
to say that after about four months
trial they have heated the rooms far be-
yond our Expectations and have given
us the most satisfactory heat that we
have had since the occupancy of our
present Office building
They are clean and easy to care for,
and we would recommend them to any
one who is looking for desirable gas
heater
Wishing your company, from whom we
have always received the most courteous
and just treatment, the success which it
deserves, we are, yours very truly,
