Build Your House Imperishable of 
NATCO HOLLC WTIL._ 
The shrewd and farsighted owner builds today not alone for comfort 
and beauty—but against fire and fear of it — deterioration and decay. 
NATCO HOLLOW TILE is absolutely un¬ 
affected by fire. It stands eternal against decay. A 
home built of NATCO is not alone for today or ten 
years hence, but for your children’s children. It lends 
itself to the best architectural treatment and design. 
Once built, it defies time and its maintenance cost 
is nil. 
Its blankets of air, which completely surround the 
house, compel a uniform temperature. A NATCO 
home is cooler in Summer, warmer in Winter, and 
always free from dampness. It is vermin proof. 
It is economical because its first cost is its last cost, and 
yet it costs no more than houses of older and perishable forms 
of construction. 
Advanced architects build their own homes of it. The 
greatest of modern buildings are fireproofed with it. Let it be 
the fabric for your own home, i
