HOUSE AND GARDEN

September, 1911 
There is another winter coming. 
Does it mean furnace drudgery, 
excessive coal bills and a shivery 
breakfast every cold snap for you? 
Don’t blame the weather; don’t blame the house; don’t blame the 
furnace—it does the best it can. Instead, put in a modern, sanitary, 
adequate, economical Pierce Heating Equipment—a steam or hot water 
system that is a success in over 200,000 homes. Pierce Boilers are built 
to meet every heating requirement. They save fuel, require little atten¬ 
tion, cannot get out of order, and save their cost long before they have 
served their time. 
Your steam-fitter will tell you just what 
Pierce Boiler your house needs, and the cost.

J OHNSON’S Wood Dye is not an or¬ 
dinary stain — but a permanent 
Wood Finish of great beauty and 
durability for all interior trim and fur¬ 
niture of every character. Johnson’s 
Dye is now extensively used by leading 
architects and contractors everywhere 
for finishing Red Gum—Cypress—and 
other soft woods, as well as the most ex¬ 
pensive hard woods. It gives the wood 
a lasting, beautiful finish without raising 
the grain—and when used in connection 
with Johnson’s Prepared Wax it pro¬ 
duces the beautiful, dull, artistic finish 
now so popular.
