These improvements are patented; 'that is why this range is a distinctive specialty. That is why it is superior to all others. It burns coal or gas either separately or togeth er. It is a complete coal range and a complete gas range all in one. We want to -tell you about all of these conve niences and demonstrate them to you. When you call be sure to ask for the Boiler-Iron Chief 3-Puel Book. It's free. Derryberry & "Forbes, Inc. A' Sermon On Lumber In conclusion my friends, we can't get away from tins lumber question.
