NOT AN EXPERIMENT


Readers Of this paper should not get
the idea that Coles Hot Blast is in any
sense an experiment tt has been proved
supreme over an heating stoves by years
of use by hundreds of thousands 0f
customers. Their annual output oil the
Amous Coles Hot Blast from Chicago,
the Original, is 60000 stoves They are
In use In every state OF The Union ia
the homes of capitalists and wage earn-
ers, and the most enthusiastic testimoni-
ais are received at the factory Of the
Cole Manufacturing Go. in Chicago
every day.
The reason the Coles Hot Blast IS
three times over the biggest selling soft
coal heater is because the patented fea-
lures that make it remarkable are con-
trolled by the Cole Manufacturing Co,
and, therefore, could not be used on any
other stove
So Coles Hot Blast is backed BY its
astounding guarantee only after the
manufacturers have proved in thousands
Of cases absolutely everything they guar
antee.
We have letter from the President
Of the Cole Manufacturing Co. author
izing us to guarantee every purchaser
Of Coles Hot Blast in this way:
Coles Hot Blast is guaranteed to re-
duce the fuel bill a third over any lower
draft stove of the same size; guaranteed
to hold FIRE from Saturday night until
Monday morning; guaranteed TO have
smoke proof feed door; guaranteed to
remain air tight as long as used; guar
anteed to give uniform heat day and
night with soft coal hard coal or Ignite
guaranteed to use less hard coal for
heating a given space than any bs.se
burner with same size FIRE pot. and .r,ar-
anteed to heat the rooms frcIn one to.
three hours in the morning with t6e fuel
put IN the day before (Which does away
with kindling or rebuilding the fire each
morning).
This Is making a great heater business
Tor US, and should at least induce every
reader OF this naper to see them before
buying their heater this winter.

days it seems TO have come very regu-
larry. The midget Jockey Zeigler had
the mount on Grin Ormonde in the
first race, and brought him home
first, although he had to do the best
he could to beat Orobo by a neck for
the long end of the purse. Alright
was the p~acefnakcr until wen into the
stretch, but weakened when the pinch
came and had all he could do TO save
third money by a head from Dryer
brothers Woodline. The latter was
wen played at odds around even mon
ey. but Jockey Wockcr got away bad
ly and had To run all around his
field.

afternoon came out of the second race

ut the finish was a length behind

way in the six furlong event Her
owner thought by using blinkers She
would run kindly. She was lively
enough at the post and set a fast
clip for five %furlongs, but she quit
when Van Dusen called upon her for

finish.

best in the closing race. which was at
