   System 
  of

  WITH 
  this 
  System 
  you 
  

   can 
  absolutely 
  govern 
  

   the 
  temperature 
  in 
  any 
  

   room 
  by 
  graduating 
  the 
  open- 
  

   ing 
  of 
  the 
  radiator 
  valve, 
  and 
  

   the 
  radiator 
  will 
  only 
  be 
  heated 
  

   in 
  proportion 
  to 
  the 
  amount 
  

   of 
  steam 
  admitted; 
  therefore 
  

   no 
  room 
  is 
  overheated, 
  which 
  

   means 
  a 
  great 
  saving 
  in 
  fuel. 
  

  

  This 
  System 
  costs 
  less 
  to 
  install 
  

   complete 
  than 
  the 
  ordinary 
  

   hot-water 
  system, 
  and 
  it 
  can 
  

   be 
  put 
  in 
  by 
  any 
  steam-fitter.
