  WHERE 
  

  

  PRESSED 
  RADIATORS 
  

   ARE 
  USED 
  

  

  They 
  heat 
  a 
  room 
  more 
  perfectly 
  because 
  

   of 
  their 
  ease 
  of 
  control 
  — 
  heat 
  quickly 
  when 
  

   you 
  want 
  heat 
  — 
  cool 
  quickly 
  when 
  heat 
  is 
  

   not 
  required. 
  

  

  Their 
  small 
  size 
  permits 
  of 
  placing 
  Kinnear 
  

   Pressed 
  Radiators 
  under 
  window-seats 
  and 
  in 
  

   other 
  places 
  where 
  there 
  would 
  not 
  be 
  room 
  

   enough 
  for 
  a 
  clumsy 
  cast-iron 
  radiator. 
  

  

  And 
  on 
  account 
  of 
  their 
  light 
  weight 
  

   Kinnear 
  Pressed 
  Radiators 
  may 
  be 
  placed 
  

  

  On 
  the 
  Wall 
  — 
  Off 
  the 
  Floor 
  — 
  

   Out 
  of 
  the 
  Way 
  

  

  These 
  features 
  are 
  worthy 
  of 
  investigation 
  

   and 
  there 
  are 
  others 
  just 
  as 
  important.
