OAK, as a CABINET WOOD, is 
serene in its conscious superiority. 
From the aristocratic dignity of the 
chateau to the sweet homey-ness of 
the cottage or apartment-—and from 
the earliest middle ages to the present discrimi¬ 
native moment—OAK, “that sturdy friend of 
Art” and “the world’s premier hardwood,” has 
remained the first choice of those who com¬ 
bine a knowledge of truly permanent values 
with a sense of the highest artistic adaptability. 
Responsive alike to the best skill of the artisan 
and the artist, OAK combines all the qual¬ 
ities which contribute most to a home whose 
FURNITURE must (because of the little 
folks) at the same time impart ideas of beauty, 
dignity, poise and permanence—and good-na¬ 
turedly repel the onslaughts of buoyant youth. 
‘‘There is no finer heirloom than good OAK furniture.’* 
There is no move safe a.nAenduri7ig\nvesX.ment—none bet¬ 
ter worth insisting upon. Have you tried INSISTING'?

TRENTON, NEW JERSEY, U. S. A. 
IVorld’s Largest Makers of All-Clay Plumbing Fixtures 
The Selection of Plumbing Fixtures 
for Your Home deserves serious consideration. How serious depends upon 
the kind you select. The proper kind will outlast a lifetime with reasonable 
care. The life of the other kind may be very, very limited.

Bathrooms ^Character 
represent the best in plumbing. Glaze baked 
on clay gives a much harder surface than the 
same glaze baked on other materials. The heat 
applied to our ALL-CLAY products would 
melt other plumbing materials. The harder you 
bake, the harder the object. 
That is why "Bathrooms of Character” fixtures 
are so much more sanitary and so easily cleaned. 
Grittysoaps cannot scratch their surface, 
medicine and common acid stains will not 
adhere. 
A permanent investment — a beautiful one. 
ARE YOU 
SATISFIED? 
Do you continue to 
use garbage and 
rubbish cans be¬ 
cause you are 
satisfied? Or do 
you tolerate them 
because you think 
they are necessary 
evils? 
The KERNERATOR 
Has at last emancipated the home from these evils. 
The door shown is located in the kitchen. Into it is put every¬ 
thing that is not wanted—tin cans, garbage, broken crockery, 
paper, sweepings, bottles, cardboard boxes—in fact all those 
things that accumulate in the home from day to day and are a 
continuous nuisance and dangerous health hazard. 
The material deposited falls down the regular house chimney 
flue to the incinerator built into the base of the chimney in the 
basement. From time to time a match is touched to it and it 
burns itself up. The material deposited is the only fuel required. 
Not one penny for operating cost and yet you have abolished 
garbage and refuse cans forever.
