A Colonial Furnace will Save its Cost to You in Fuel and Repairs If you don't own a furnacd that gives you greatest economy, you are always adding to the original pur chase price. On a business basis, that is poor practice. Don't argue that you must have heat anyway," "without respect to cost." The furnace that eats the most fuel, is least de pendable in heat. The more extravagant the upkeep, the less the satisfaction. Keep these points in mind when you investigate the Green COLONIAL Furnace i juj jf ecu a lsvmc ,i i cat i mcnsyier Creen columiau FuhnACB Stoking in fuel and shoveling out ashes, is a thankless, costly job. Green's COLONIAL Furnace overcomes all these wastes, because every part -of it is the result of long experience a real refinement in furnace design, materials, workmanship. k ' How the fuel is consumed, the way the draft operates, the method in which the heat is extractedthe certainty that you are not heating all out-doors cleanliness. , convenience, warmth m every room, comfort and health for the family security against the coldest days, and the damp days, too:. All these things certainly should, enter into your consideration of a furnace! . You wouldn't buy a gold bond or a first mortgage on a printed announcement, and we don t expect you to buy a Green COLONIAL, Furnace on what we say in thia advertisement. ' But we do believe that you will investigate the Green COLONIAL Furnace. Study its many merit-points; it has no other! Get acquainted with its five-year guarantee ! Figure on its low upkeep cost.
