HERE is an economy wave over the land.
American people are beginning to realize
that thev arc living too fast, beyond their
means. It has "been the rule that the man
. with $-20,000 a year as well as the man with
$2,000 a year lives up to every penny of his
income. "Slowly but surely this order of
rli:mrin?r. The era of extravagance and
waste in business and personal expenses is wearing an
end. Efficiency and economy is the order of the day.
Hank deposits are growing. i
It is up to evcrv one to economize. The best and
surest way to do so'is to place your surplus in the bank.
If you already have a bank account make it a point
from today on to increase it. Add to it weekly, daily
if possible.
IF YOU HAVEN'T A BAXK ACCOUNT DE

BUILD IT WITH RIVETS"
erha 3 you never thought of the selecting
:itchen range as a "Problem."
nt it is a Problem, and the proper ,olu-
it will make a big difference in your
day living expenses.
the first cost of a range was its only cost
ildn't be so important. Hut the cost of
ion fuel and repairs is the big item.
You can choose now between a $40.00 and
kitchen its beyond your power to say whether you will burn 15 pounds of coal
per day or 40. Remember, no range is going to show up its bad tricks when new,
when you are still able to take it back where you brought it and complain.
All ranges are tight when new but the way they are Diade tight determines
how long they will stay tight. MONARCH Ranges are made tight by' riveting
the unbreakable malleable iron castings to the Triple AValls a joint that stays
tight forever.
So it is quite a Problen after all and the way to solve it is to study the con
struction of each range you look at and select only one that is built to stay tight.
In other words, select a MONARCH Range.
