Your Housewarming 



lasts the winter through where you "request the presence" of 

 MONARCH Metal Weather Strip in your home 



No matter how costly your woodwork may be, there is a natural weathering process 

 that "seasoning" cannot control. Windows and doors that fit perfectly when new 

 will shrink and swell during different seasons, leaving cracks between the sash and 

 frame that aggregate in each case an opening equal to more than sixteen square inches. 

 This hole, four inches square, in every window is a handicap to the heating plant 

 that cannot be overcome by excess radiation, but only by excess consumption of coal. 



Monarch Metal Weather Strips completely seal these cracks between sash and frame. 

 They keep out cold and dampness, keep your home warm and cozy within, and 

 standardize the temperature of the entire house at a 20 to 40% reduction in coal con- 

 sumption. 



There is a specially-designed Monarch type of strip for every kind of outside opening. 

 Self-adjusting to shrinking and swelling of sashes and frames, Monarch's first cost is 

 its final cost. 



Look up Monarch Weather Strips in your telephone directory and let our licensee tell 

 you more about them. Or, if Monarch is not listed in the book, write us direct for 

 additional information.
