as its location, and the material from
which its walls are built. 1t is the
up-to-date plumber who can design
sanitary installments that give the
full hint of their capacity. 1t is the
bad plumbing that often times makes
unhealthy homes and results in sick
ness and heavy doctor bills.
If you need plumbing or heating
work done, by all means have it done
by an expert and men who fully un-
derstand their business. The gentle
men whose names head this article
are expert plumbers and heating en-
gineers, and have a reputation that

ing things well and as a result have
completed some contracts on the best
homes in Champaign, besides a num-
per OF large factories and public
