of this boiler question gets down to the coal (|uestion — 

 what does it burn? What heat do you get for the coal 

 you burn? One boiler may have a grate that cuts out 

 the ashes in an "improved" way, and by the same

 ning because the repair costs crowd 

 up the actual cost.

 — but the element of attractiveness is an indisputably
