HODGSON 
Portable 
HOUSES 
“Complete in every detail” 
H ODGSON Portable Houses are made of 
selected red cedar. They are carefully 
constructed by skilled workmen and lined 
with heavy fiber lining. 
These houses come to you in sections all 
ready to bolt together. Doors are hung, 
sashes fitted and all details attended to be¬ 
fore they leave the factory. 
The only tool you need is a hammer to 
wedge in the key-bolts. These bolts lock 
the sections firmly together and keep them 
rigid against the severest strain. 
Hodgson Houses are made to endure. 
In every climate of the globe these houses 
are standing to-day as staunch and steady 
as the day they were built—some of them 
many years ago. 
Hodgson Houses are as beautiful as they 
are durable. Neat and artistic in design. 
They are painted a French gray and 
trimmed in leaf-green. 
Send for the Hodgson catalog G. It gives 
complete information and shows many 
actual photographs of Hodgson Houses 
and cottages. Also portable garages, play¬ 
houses,poultry-houses,etc. Write us to-day.

You Can Enjoy Soft Water 
from every faucet in your house 
N O matter how hard, how unsatis¬ 
factory your present water sup¬ 
ply is, a Permutit Water Softener 
will give you a steady flow of delight¬ 
ful, soft water from every faucet in 
your house for about 5 cents per 
day. It is entirely automatic, with 
nothing to get out of order. No 
chemicals are used and it operates 
on regular city pressure without any 
additional pumps or motors. 
Permutit material possesses the wonder¬ 
ful property of abstracting all hardness 
from water that is passed through it. 
From time to time it is regenerated by 
adding common cooking salt, and that is 
absolutely all the operating expense there 
is. You just dump some salt into the soft¬ 
ener and let the water run through it into 
the sewer for a few minutes. No salt is 
carried into your house lines and the Per¬ 
mutit is made absolutely as fresh as new. 
Thousands are in daily use everywhere 
—hundreds of doctors have Permutit in 
their homes. utes' time once a 
week to maintain.
