Think What a Roof 

 Must Stand 



Before you decide on any roofing, for any purpose, consider what that 

 roof must stand. Consider the expansion and the contraction of alter- 

 natino^ heat and cold. Think of the rotting rains of spring. Of the ice 

 and the sliding snows that winter brings. Of the burning embers, that, 

 in time of hre, it tniist withstand. Then send for our free book, which 

 tells the very facts you want to know about all kinds of roofings. 



This free book tells about roofs of shingles, 

 lin, tir, iron — of "prepared" and other 

 roofings. 



It tells what we have learned in nearly twenty 

 }ears of actual tests of these various roofings. 



It tells the first cost of each — and the after 

 cost — it tells the advantages of each fairly, 

 frankly, comprehensively. 



We gladly send this valuable lx)ok free, be- 

 cause it tells alxiut Ruberoid roofing, too. 



Since Ruberoid was invented, nearly twenty 

 years ago, there have sprung up more than 300 

 substitutes. 



Bew^are Substitutes 



These substitutes have names which sound 

 like Ruteroid. lh\fore they are laid on roofs, 

 they look like Rulx;roid. 

 IJut do not let these 

 facts deceive you. 



Xo other maker can use 

 Kulx;roid gum. 



And it is this wonder- 

 ful, flexible gum of ours 

 which makes Ruberoid 

 sun proof, moisture 

 proof, heat proof, 

 cold proof and weatlier 

 proof. 



RUBEROID 



(TRADEMARK REGISTERED) 



15c Pure to look for this regfistercd trademark -which 

 is statnpcil every four feet on the under side of all 

 trcmiine Ruberoid. This is your protection ac:ainst 

 substitutes which many dealers brazenly sell as 

 Ruberoid. Ruberoid is usually sold by but one 

 dealer in a town. We will tell you the name of your 

 Ruberoid dealer when you send for our free book. 



It is this exclusive Ruberoid gum that we 

 iise which makes a Ruberoid roof so nearly fire- 

 proof that a shovelftd of burning coals thrown 

 on the roof will not set it afire. 



A Rtiberoid roof is practically a one-piece 

 roof. For Rtiberoid comes to you in yard wide 

 rolls, the seams and laps of which are cemented 

 together in one solid piece. 



You can easily lay a Ruberoid roof yourself. 

 Or you can have it laid at small expense. Xo 

 skilled labor is needed. The average cost of 

 laying will run from twenty to eighty cents a 

 hundred square feet — according to the roof. 



Ruberoid in Colors 



Ruberoid also comes in attractive colors — Red, 

 Green, brown. These color roofings are made 

 under our exclusively owned U. S. and foreign 

 patents. The colors of Ruberoid roofing do not 

 fade or wear awaj'. For 

 they are a part of the 

 roofing — a permanent- 

 color roofing, fine enough 

 for the costliest home.
