THE FLAT-FLAME BURNER WAS THE VEHICLE OF LIGHT AND THE BEST TO BE HAD IN THOSE TIMES. ALL THREE LONG SINCE PASSED INTO THE CLASS OF MUSEUM EXHIBITS. The introduction of the gas mantle in the 80’s supplanted flat-flame burners. It had been found that a far superior light could be obtained from the heat in the gas when used through a mantle. It is the heat in the gas that is used for cooking, heating and industrial work. There is no excuse for using a flat-flame burner today. HAVE US REPLACE YOUR FLAT-FLAME WITH A MANTLE BURNER Exrra Manties FREE. There are three mantles on a “C EZ” (See Easy) Light, which sells for $1.75 on easy payments. To each purchaser will be pre- sented three extra mantles. An extra mantle will be given to each purchaser of any one of the three “Reflex” Lights. The “Thrift” Burner sells for 24 cents. We give an extra mantle with that, and an extra mantle with a “Thrift” Light which sells for 39 cents, including a handsome glass globe. When you purchase a Gas Lamp or Lighting Fixture from us we give you a continuous “Lighting Service,” free of expense to you, except where broken mantles or parts have to be replaced, and then no charge is made for time and labor. ‘We install the Fixture and place the Mantles in position free of charge.
