About the plumbing remarked
Uncle Bill, 1--WE can't use too much
care; for good health and many
comforts are dependent upon SAM
tary plumbing and scientific VEN
tilation and heating; and when
coupled with the use of porcelain
bath tubs, good sinks and handsome
and appropriate fixtures, to say
nothing Of the conveniences, they
combined a pleasing interior finish
which is most desirable. Now. to
avoid encountering any trouble in
after years, l am going to have A.
L. Eshelman, manager OF the Abb
lene Plumbing & Heating Co. to ex-
ecute the plumbing and heating
said Uncle Bill. "Then we can ex-
pect a square deal, for this is the
kind OF reputation that A. L. Eshel-
man has won with cognizant pub
lie for doing things, and has every
facility at hand for executing con-
tracts promptly, too.
at is the task of the painter and
decorator, too, that counts very
much in obtaining artistic and har-
monious results" Clipped In the
bride. For" said she, at is the
painting and decorating when ex-
ecuted by capable artisans that aug
ments the attractiveness of both the
exterior and the interior of the
house, rendering 1t pleasing and in
viting."
"Then," interrupted Uncle Bill,
"Ill take no chances on blotchery,
but TIL go over to w. M. Fritz's
wall paper and paint store and pick
out the paper and see him about this
contract. He is an artist with the
brush, employing all the time COM
petent men, who WELD the brush
with dexterity, and by giving the
painting. paperhanging and decorat-
ing to w. NJ. Fritz we can rest as
sured Of getting good workmanship |
and a we'll finished house, painted |
and decorated in ship-shape and on
time, too, at a reasonable cost"
"In my earlier days" remarked
Uncle Bill, "the practical use of cleo
tricity was unknown. 1t did not
enter into the construction Of a
building at all, but 1t is different
today. The conveniences that 1t
affords are manifold. Now, about
the electrical equipment for our new
house. am going to See ]. e.
