Did You Feel the Cold
Wave Monday,
and did it make you think
of that old heating stove!
Now don’t you think it is a
business proposition to
lay aside that old stove
and buy a new one, don’t
you think it will pay to
have a stove that will be
economical on coal and
at the same time keep an
even heat! If it is for a
school-house, residence
or public building, we
believe we have a stove
that has proved beyond a
doubt that it has no equal.
It is the
Famous
Round OaK.
Other stove companies
have tried to imitate it,
but they have never been
able to put out a stove
that would hold the fire,
use as little coal and last
as long as the Round Oak.
We can refer you to Round
Oak stoves in this town
that have been used for
the past 25 years and in
good shape yet. Come
and let us show you. A
good supply on hand for
school-houses.
