FAVORITE Hi...:; ' i - -— ’ Being a Story of How we Were Convinced te?- \ First, we were attracted by the handsome apI.J Tl'i pearance of the Favorite, but we did not decide k to handle it for this reason alone, although we decided it was the most handsome base burner , ’ on the market. wan^ a better reason than an attractive aZZZI ~ j looking stove, so we looked it over thoroughly, j comparing it point by point with other base burners, and this is what we found: That the material from which it is made is all of WliL the highest grades—the doors, mica frames and joints being absolutely air and paper tight. We were told the Favorite produced the most satisfactory results with about, half as much coal as other base burners. We discovered this to be true. We found the reason to be in its Triple Exposed Flues. The sectional cut herewith explains these flues better than we can in words. The heat passes from the fire pot into the two outside down flues, across tne bottom of the stove, under n-f A the ash pan, where it enters the central flue. It then passes back over the bottom and up Z the central flue to the chimney. Just think a .. a of this great radiating surface, and it is more than y ‘ YouDFmdtfM doubled, because the flues are SET OUT.from the back of the stove. The flues therefore radiate ,iom W all sides, and the back of the stove radiates heat, also. This feature alone places the Favorite in a class by \ Fa p* itself, making it the best and most economical heating 9 wS ® stove in existence. But other features of its con- m nt jt’' struction must not be overlooked. Would like to tell U H Ugl» you all about them. ~ Hf Un D° not put off buying your heating stove j ‘S until the cold days come. Come and ' j \ ' see us now » our Favorite will be your Favorite too.
