QUALITY 
In Hardware 
T HERE is necessity for attention to de¬ 
tails in hardware equipment if you 
would avoid petty annoyances from the 
use of unreliable goods. The item of 
“butts,” for instance, brings forth this injunc¬ 
tion from one writer: “Don’t use cheap 
or inferior makes if you don’t want your 
doors to sag.” 
Using goods that can be relied upon 
to give good and satisfactory service are 
cheaper in the end even if they cost a trifle 
more at first. 
It is QUALITY to which especial at¬ 
tention is paid in the manufacture of

First Steps in Heating Values 
It has taken many, many care¬ 
ful steps in planning, manufac¬ 
turing and testing to develop the 
marvelous heat - producing 
IDEAL Boilers and AMER¬ 
ICAN Radiators. They are the 
final steps in heating economy. 
They save heavily in fuel—save 
in care-taking, save furniture 
and decorations from ash-dust, 
save in doctor bills, save fire 
risk to building, save half the 
daily house-cleaning, save in 
time and temper. 
are a high-class investment from every 
standpoint for any size or kind of building 
requiring heating. 
The cost of IDEAL Boilers and AMER¬ 
ICAN Radiators will average the lowest annual outlay. For instance—an IDEAL- 
AMERICAN outfit costing $200, and lasting 25 years, represents an outlay of $8 
only a year. As there is no reason why IDEAL Boilers and AMERICAN Radiators 
will not last as long as the building, say 50 years, the outlay would be $4 only per 
year. The saving of a few tons of coal a year, which these 
outfits effect, will easily repay the first cost and then produce 
a handsome yearly profit on this ideal heating investment—to 
say nothing of the other savings, the comforts and the health 
protection. No one, therefore, can afford to continue the waste { 
and nuisances of old-fashioned heating.
