'War supplies are being transported in such vast quantities that congestion is bound to develop at terminal points. Therefore, the Government has earnestly requested the public to postpone all “unnecessary traveling.” It has said in very plain terms —*“Please keep off the railroads.” By all means observe this request.

Didn’t you ever put off buying something you really needed until you could pay for it all at once and get spot cash price? Our plan with this range is different; you get the use of a perfect, guarante ed range, but you pay for it on convenient terms. Come in and let us tell you these special terms. FREE CONNECTIONS Every club member is entitled to have the range installed en- tirely free of cost and all con- nections above the floor, both for water and gas made free. This, you know, is quite a saving. A COMPLETE GAS RANGE IN A COMPLETE COAL RANGE This Range cooks, bakes or broils with either gas or coal, separately or together. It conserves kitchen space, labor and fuel. It does every- thing a perfect gas range and a perfect coal range will do, but requires only 36 inches of floor space. You will have to give this one Range just half as much care as you would give two, yet you have all the conveniences of two. Having gas and coal both in the same range helps save fuel because you can use just whichever is the better for that particular moment. In “between seasons” you can use a small fire for warmth and the gas for speding up the cooking. It is manufactured by the Sill Stove Works, makers of Ranges for over 60 years—that alone is a guarantee that it is of highest grade workmanship and materials. These Are the Special Terms For 6 Days Only OUR STERLING CtUB OPENS APRIL 29 CLOSES MAY 4 Six days only to join this club and get these special ad- vantages that come to club members only. DOUBLE GUARANTEE You take absolutely no risk in joning this club. Every member receives a double guarantee bond, signed by both the Sill Stove Works and by us. We guarantee in writing that this 2-fuel range will do all we claim for it. WE BUY YOUR OLD RANGE Your old range has paid for itself in service. We want to make it easy for you to exchange it for a modern range that will conserve food, Jabor and fuel. Therefore we will make it pos- sible for you to sell us the old range. We shall be glad to talk this ‘matter over with you. “Make It the Firsi Thing Monday Morning” A. A. MILLS NEW BRITAIN CONN.
