ent makes of man, pony and horse 
mowers, showing the working parts 
very clearly. Every one interested in

quest.

SAYS 
“irSASIZZLER” 
The second day of September, 
Mr. William Rhodes of Leech- 
burg, Pa., wrote for our catalog 
of Hot Bed Sash and Frames. 
At the bottom of the letter was 
this P. S. 
“Our No. 630 ‘Burnham’ Boiler is a SIZZLER. 
Talk about heating, why we had to keep the fire 
door open most of the time last winter to keep 
steam from getting too high. ’’ 
Now why is it a “sizzler”? — why a boiler of record breaking 
economy? This just printed catalog of ours, tells. Not in the 
usual dry boiler talk way, but in a regular showing up of point 
after point, exactly as you would want to know when putting your 
dollars in one. It’s a good kind of catalog to have 
SEND FOR IT.
