Any person, no matter ho\A/ inexperienced, may easily operate 

 an IDEAL Boiler. It requires less care than a parlor stove.

 not be understood, we most cor- 

 dially invite correspondence.

Artisuc Hardware 



adds not only to the artistic beauty of any home, but increases its selling 

 value as well. The vast superiority in appearance and the wearing quali- 

 ties of Sargent's Hardware more than offset any slight increase in cost 

 over inferior goods. Even if the most expensive goods are selected, 

 the cost of the liardware is but a small proportion of the total cost of 

 building. 



Sargent's Book of Designs— Sent FREE 

 illustrates a number of hardware patterns especially for homes of Colonial 

 Design. But among the seventy and more styles pictured c.m be found 

 designs appropriate for any style, period or architectural molif. In addition 

 to the Book of Designs we will send free to anyone requesting it our
