THE WORLD'S ADVANCE 



of the night prowler. The various rooms 

 are interconnected by the inter-phone 

 system, equipped with electric fans and 

 illuminated by both the direct and indi- 

 rect systems. A stationary vacuum 

 cleaner located in the basement is piped 

 to outlets set in the baseboards of the 

 principal rooms, thus furnishing a more 

 convenient method for housecleaning 

 than would be derived from a portable 

 machine. To give an idea of the com- 

 pleteness of the electrical installation, it 

 will be necessary to mention the equip- 

 ment of each room, while the figures in 

 parentheses denote the cost of operating 

 in cents, for one hour, the apparatus 

 after which they are placed ; calculations 

 being based upon the rate of ten cents 

 per kilo-watt hour. 



LIVING ROOM 



This room is warmed either by a quadruple 

 glower radiator (20) or an air warmer (10). 

 An electric reading lamp and cigar lighter 

 (24) are present on the library table, and an 

 electric piano is playing over in the corner. 



DINING ROOM 



Upon the sideboard and dining table are a 

 percolator urn (3^2), a uni-set chafing dish 

 (5), uni-set samovar (5), radiant grill (6) 

 and toaster (5^-2). A telephone connecting 

 with the kitchen is located near the head of 

 the table. The room is warmed by a luminous 

 radiator (10). 



BEDROOM 



Near the head of the bed is located the inter- 

 phone and master switch. An electric heating 

 pad ( l / 2 ) replaces the vexatious hot-water bag, 

 and a glower radiator (7) warms the room. 

 The shaving equipment consists of a one- 

 quart water heater (4) and an indirectly illu- 

 minated shaving mirror. Other necessities are 

 a hair drier (cool or warm air), a massage 

 vibrator (^) and a curling-iron heater (54). 



NURSERY 



Here we find a one-pint milk heater (3), 

 a uni-set nursery outfit (5), a twin radiator 

 and a heating pad. 



BATHROOM 



The room is warmed by a triple glower 

 heater (7^) or cooled by a six-inch electric 

 fan. A ventilating fan, placed in the outside 

 wall of the room, serves to draw out the im- 

 pure air. A pedestal type hair drier ()/), one- 

 half pint hot water cup (i l / 2 ), and shaving 

 mirror complete the list. 



SEWING ROOM 



The sewing machine is actuated by an elec- 

 tric motor (i) and the room warmed by a 

 glower heater. The small-sized ironing board 

 is equipped with a three-pound electric flat- 

 iron (2^4). 



KITCHEN 



There should be no trouble about "keeping" 

 the cook with such an equipment as this ! The 

 electric range (10 to 44) will boil the onions 

 while the ozonator (l) will neutralize the odors 

 emanating therefrom. If the air becomes too 

 "close" the ventilator in the wall will draw it 

 out-of-doors ; if too warm the electric fan will 

 adjust matters. The circulation hot water 

 heater (30) supplies hot water for the baths 

 in twenty seconds, or for the electric dish 

 washer (2), if desirable. In contrast to the 

 former is the electrically operated refrigerator 

 and the ice cream freezer (2). 



LAUNDRY 



The laundry is complete with the washing 

 machine (2), mangle (i^4), drier and flat- 

 irons (3 to 5). 



MILK ROOM 



The equipment herein will appeal to those 

 who keep one or more cows. It consists of a 

 milking machine, cream separator (34), bottle 

 washer (i), churn (i}4) and cooler for cream- 

 ery packages. 



WORK ROOM 



The handy man of the household will wel- 

 come the electric soldering iron, metal melt- 

 ing pot, grindstone, drill press, riveter, glue pot, 

 chipping hammer and motor-driven lathe, 

 which are to be found in this room. 



THE GARAGE 



The electric automobile is having its battery 

 charged from the mercury arc rectifier, while 

 the motor-generator in the corner is humming 

 attune to the accompaniment of the electric 

 piano located in the living room; and rightly 

 it should, for neither could live without the 

 other. Receptacles are provided for connecting 

 up the buffing motor and vacuum cleaner. The 

 inter-phone on the wall completes the last de- 

 tail of this remarkable Home Electrical. 



He who hails from the country will 

 be attracted by the live stock and poultry 

 exhibits. There are pigs, horses and 

 cows a-plenty, and they represent the 

 leading types of American and foreign- 

 bred stock. Among the several score 

 magnificent horses is a blue-ribbon mare 

 which tips the scales at 2,150 pounds.
