“Below the Line” when not a tiny breeze sways lazy palm-topped trees, when blazing sun shrivel man and beast—you can 
merrily enjoy your home, if your house is wrapped or overcoated with BISHOPRIC. 
Winging your flight to the farthest flung outpost of the freezing Northland, you find, contrarily, the same effect. 
South or North—hot or cold—Bishopric affords the construction and the durability that meets every demand for comfort. 
A stucco house built throughout of Bishopric provides the utmost 
maximum, within practicable limits, of Comfort. The superior insulat¬ 
ing qualities of Bishopric are so decidedly extraordinary—it keeps a 
home extremely warm and dry in winter—likewise cool in summer. 
While Bishopric was designed first for superiority, actual practice 
has proved that a Bishopric built house costs decidedly less than 
stucco and frame houses built by other methods—also reduces repairs, 
depreciation, insurance and fuel 
costs to a minimum, in conse¬ 
quence it is the most economical 
construction for the cottage as 
well as for the mansion. 
“Bishopric For All Time and 
Clime” a booklet for you, con¬ 
taining facts and details on in¬ 
sulation, sound-deadening, damp- 
proof construction, and illustrat¬

houses built with Bishopric
