THE COLONIAL 
ARCHITECTURE 
OF SALEM 
. By 
Frank Cousins and Phil M. 
Riley 
In terms of the so-called 
Colonial style, our national 
building heritage, Salem is the 
architectural center of New 
England, and affords the high¬ 
est inspiration to architects and 
home builders for modern 
adaptation. 
Salem presents perfect exam¬ 
ples of the gable-roofed cabin 
or cottage, the many gabled 
Elizabethan house, and the 
adaptation from the French of 
Mansard to the square three- 
story structure first of wood, 
and then of brick. 
This book aims to present the 
story of Colonial Architecture 
of Salem, from the period of 
1628-1818. The best and most 
typical examples have been 
chosen of each period, first 
preference being given to arch¬ 
itectural excellence. 
Thus we have a complete 
survey of the Colonial period, 
whether expressed in door¬ 
ways, mantel pieces, fireplaces, 
cornices or houses as a whole. 
With nearly 250 illustrations 
from photographs. Eight Vol.

Deane's French .Range, 
Plate No. 160, burning

A Range That Saves Coal 
saves money. A range well-built on the 
right principles will save coal. The fire should start 
quickly, burn evenly under perfect damper control, 
and practically envelope the oven with heat. 
Deane's 
FLan^i 
for over 60 years has been specified by architects and demanded 
by experienced housewives because it meets most exacting de¬ 
mands. It embodies all the characteristics described and is 
constructed of the finest materials obtainable to insure a long, 
useful career. It costs more than ordinary ranges but pays 
for itself in better cooking and fuel saving. 
The range shown here has two large ovens, with platform- 
drop doors. The heat passes around five sides of the ovens, 
insuring even temperatures and perfect roasting and baking. 
It rests on a fire-proof hearth and, where the chimney per¬ 
mits, is constructed to eliminate the smoke pipe and to give 
increased surface space. The warming closet in the plate shelf 
and the hood and ventilator are valuable features. 
We have fully described and priced this range and others, 
larger and smaller, and combining coal and gas, in Circular 
No. 31. Send for it now.

The Difference Between 
A House and A Home 
One word marks this difference 
—PROTECTION. 
This modern home means to its 
owner not only shelter, not only 
comfort and beauty, but also safety 
from fire, and the modern way of 
making sure of this safety is by 
building throughout of 
NATCO • HOLLOWTILE 
The Natco house is warmer in winter 
and cooler in summer—thanks to the en¬ 
closed air spaces in the tile. It is damp 
proof and vermin proof, solid and substan¬ 
tial, permanent and enduring, and best of 
all it is everlastingly safe. 
Natco walls are built of a single thick¬ 
ness of the large hollow tile, whose sur¬ 
faces are scored on the outside to take the 
beautiful stucco finish, and on the inside 
to hold wall plaster permanently and well 
without cracking. 
Natco costs less than brick and concrete, 
and but little more than less permanent 
frame construction. 
When you think of building think of 
Natco. Send today for the interesting 32- 
page book "Fire Proof Houses”. It shows 
you how other discriminating people have 
built beautiful houses of Natco.
