has a smoke ordinance that
permits boilers to emit smoke only five
minutes in four consecutive hours. That
is some ordinance, but the Kewanee
Smokeless Firebox Boiler comes within
its provisions without turning a hair,
The poorer grades of
Western bituminous coal make a lot of
smoke in the ordinary boiler, but we have
never yet found a case in which the
Kewanee Boiler was less than 90
smokeless. And it doestft make any
difference how cheap or poor the coal may be.
Pence ,the Kewan.ee
Smokeless Firebox Boiler is the logical
boiler for every city in America and the
sooner you flat owners, merchants and
manufacturers put it in, the better for
your health, your pocketbook and your
relations with the smoke authorities.

The evolution of tho lircpiau tu u,u'i
tho ovulutlon of the homo.
In primeval tltnea the flrcplnco wus the
first Improvement on a Vonflro. It wna at
first tho only means of nettling tho homo
and It consisted merely of nn openins
In what was eaulvulcnt to n. l.nr i.r"
nuisonrji set on end, reaclitnB from
floor to roof. The flrcplnco was soon
Improved by nnrrowlnic tho throat, by
Improving structurally tho quality of
masonry and by bettering architecturally
tho design employed.
Massive construction was the only type
known, nnd for good reason, since the
fireplace was nt the same time tho source
1. . i. iror.dod ii wot" . , , urd th
tirch of tho flrcplnco Itself provided tho
cooking arrniigemcntB. Meats were hung
over tho firo on open, revolving spits.
lCettlvH wero suspended on slmplo cruiicj
or burled In coals.
Tho earliest flreplaco furnishings wore
necessarily crude, being band wrought
from tho most avnllablo material, gen
erally by tho master of the home.
In very modern times the fireplace Is
regaining tho prestige which It lost In a
ineasirro when supplanted as a heating'
device by stoves nnd furnaces. It U now
recognized again that tho- flreplaco con
tributes nn essential part to tho comfort
of heat nnd th kitchen of tho home. The
ur.d attructlveness of any substantial
Iwme, Tho modern home owner cannot
afford to dlspenso with the comfort, con
venience and ornamental service which
coma from an nttractlvo fireplace con
sistently equipped.
In the modern fireplace tho architec
tural beauty of old masonry Is retained.
Combined with structural accuracy Is
beauty of texture and design. Massive
ness Is not now the only criterion. The
fireptace for your home must harmonize
with the woodwork, with the size of the
room and with tho furniture and decora
tions. Moreover, up-to-date construction
guarantees proper draft control and fire
places are no longer smoky.
