No More Back-Breaking Scuttles To Be Carried Up Those Cellar Stairs ! If you buy coal in large quantities you must have room to store it; if in small quantities, it is expensive. When you want to use it you must carry it from its storage place to your range, and of all tasks that is one of the most weary. When you burn woad or coal you have the heat, dirt, and ihe trouble of attending to the fire. If you use gas you require no room for storage; no back-breaking scut- | tles to be carried from the cellar to the kitchen. The fire in the gas range burns steadily and without atten- tion; it is always ready, without dirt or trouble, in large § or small quantities. particpating Political Speculation, People in this section believe that John C.
