EOPLE who take time in choosing a refrigerator, who compare before they buy, usually get an Electrolux. And here’s why! They find that Electrolux differs basically fromall othtrrefrigerators .-.and every point of difference is an advantage they want! For Electrolux is the only refrig- erator that has no moying parts. A tiny gas flame does all the work .-. circulates the refrigerant, which is cooled by ordinary air. This trolux’s greater efficiency . . . its amazingly low eost to Tun . - its conveniences! We want you to, for the more you know about refrig- erators, the more likely you are to choose Electrolux. Come in today!
