Coal is dirty to put in. And it's dirtier still to burn, with its dust, soot and ashes. A coal furnace means endless drudgery, shoveling, starting and banking fires. It means constant attendance and a house always too warm or too cold. Meanwhile consider the 12,000 Nokol-heated homes. Their fuel flows in pipes from the wagon to the Nokol fire-box. There is no dirt, no soot, no smoke, no dust. And Nokol keeps the house at just the temperature de- sired all winter long without attention, for the Nokol thermostat is an un- failing janitor. Ask any one of the 600 Nokol owners right here in Washington what he’d take for his Nokol if he couldn’t get another.
