Such a Sale 

 Means Something 



It means that for the majority of 

 American readers, this book has 

 by far the most interesting back- 

 ground because it deals with simple- 

 hearted, decent, self-respecting peo- 

 ple who are the backbone of our 

 life to-day.

Exactly Why Kelsey 



Superior to Steam or Hot Water 



Of first importance, it's a healthier heat, because it's fresh 

 air fresh heated. It is not the same old air in a room heated 

 and reheated. 



To keep the air fresh in a steam or hot water heated room , 

 when it's chilly outside generally means some one is in a 

 draught — uncomfortable. 



The Kelsey, both heats and ventilates at the same time 

 — it goes on night and day. It's always agreeable to all. 



Think what it means to live in rooms that are warm [and 

 still continuously being supplied with fresh air. To 

 those whose throats are sensitive to the chilly fresh air, it 

 is a boon. With steam you must first have fire enough to 

 boil the water before the radiators begin to pound and snap 

 with heat (a most disagreeable thingfin itself)* 



With the Kelsev the heat starts coming to your rooms 

 the very minute the fire starts. No wait. No disagreeable 

 pounding. With Hot Water the radiators are large, the 

 piping doubled, and when once the water is heated you 

 can't shut it off. but must wait for both water and radiators 

 to cool, and all the time you are heating the same old air 

 over and over again. 



This is a most uncomfortable thing in early Fall or late 

 Spring, when the midday sun begins warming up. With 

 the Kelsey, a little fire will give you just a little heat you 

 need to take off the chill in your rooms in early Fall or 

 late Spring. 



The Kelsey saves coal over steam, hot water, or any 

 kind of furnace heat. It's less trouble. It's more flexible. 

 It is an economizer and healthizer. Send for catalog.
