Dries in 30 minutes Funk Mercantile Company How much more you would enjoy cooking if you had a Monarch Range! The oven is ready for baking with such a little fire. And the heat is so uni· form that everything bakes beautifully. But, best of all, there is the knowl edge that your Monarch is going to give you just as good service, with just as little fuel alter many years as when it is new. Records of thousands of Monarch Ranges eighteen and twenty years old prove this to be true. If you know how a Monarch is built, you understand how it is possible. The whole secret is tiithtness - per manent tightness. Air Leaks waste Colby Ave. fuel, and interCcre with the operation of any range. But air leaks cannot occur in a Monarch Range because every joint is Tivcted. It uses none of the stove putty, which ranges made of cast iron have to de pend upon as a temporary protec tion against air leaks. Riveted joints are permanently tight. And it is possible to rivet Monarch Ranges throughout, because we build them of unbreakable Malleable Iron. Such construction is impossible where ordinary iron is used. It requires an iron that cannot crack or break. As a protection against rust damage it has VitriftLscd Rust Resisting Linings. Experts recommend them as the only dependable form of protection.

It would pay everyone to buy two house dresses and we feel confident that they will save more than if they buy only one dress or one pair of shoes from any outside town.
