Reasons Why the Great Majestic
You Should Buy
It has the reputation of being the best ran^e money can buy.
It not only has the reputation b ut IS the best range made,
and we will prove this to you if you will let us.
3d. It Is constructed of malleable iron, material you can't beat, and
of Charcoal iron, material that resists rust 300 per cent greater
than Steel, is riveted together air tight. No heat escapes or cold
air enters the range, thus uses very little fuel to do perfect work.
4th. The reservoir alone is worth the price of range over any other
reservoir made. It bolls 16 gallons of water; is heated like a tea
kettle, with pocket against left-hand lining, and is movable and sets
on a frame, hence cannot wear out. When water gets too hot It can
be moved awmjr from tre. ,
Majestic Ranges one less fuel; heat more water—and heat it
hotter; costs practically nothing far repairs; lasts three times as
long; bakes better; easier to keep clean and give better satisfaction
than any other range oa (he Market If you know positively that
the above statements are trne. wouldn't you buy a Majestic at wee?
