WHEN EVERY T H I NG'S JUST RIGH T

W

ELCOME! t hou month when everythi ng's just righ t; Now shade and sunshine both afford delight; Now Summer's sultry, stifling heat has passed, Not yet has come the chilly autumn blast.

Nocturnal frosts and constant showers by day I lave not appeared to make a permanent stay.

Of equal length are now both day and night,This is the month when everything's just right.

N Oheat or cold at night prevents our sleep,

Refreshing now our slumber, sound and deep.

No dust nor mud upon the road is found, While soft, new g rass again bt•decks the ground; The orchard trees a heavy bu rden bear Of luscious, mellow fru it, and st ill they wear Their ~ummer garb of leaves, fresh , green, and br ight,All hail the month when everything's just right!

The apples, melons, grapes, a tempting sight, All crown the month when ever ything's just right.

With the HollaTtf! Air-Admitting Firepot, the esbes are always dropped away and the fire is n ext to the castings, wbero it ~ves. intense beat and .beats the castings equally around the enttre cucumference. Thts makes the Holland Furnace, without exception, the most enduring, as well as the most economical, furnace made. 'We want to show you other patented features also.

The Holland patented radiator travels the smoke full diameter of casing or direct to flue, as damper construction operates from the outside of casing, whereby a direct draft may be had by simply lifting a weight hanging in front of furnace, which allow• quick escape for smoke while feeding the furnace and ~events muoking of feed door, etc. Smoke al so travels twice a far. which saves waste, and you get equal heat for all pipes.

Burns Any Fuel With Least Waste You can burn any fuel-soft coal-slack screens- hard coallignite or wood. The Holland js the simplest and easiest furnace to operate and the most economical in fuel consumption. Sold under manufacturer'& double guarantee, which we also stand back of. Call and investigate just the Holland to suit your need, or ask for catalog and prices.
