Evening Republican, Volume 21, Number 252, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 8 November 1917 — The Coal User's Lament. [ARTICLE]

The Coal User's Lament.

There is dust and there is dirt •and coal on the floor, There is ashes and soot and grime galore. ’Tis the same today, yesterday, and the day before. ‘Twill be so tomorrow, and for evermore— Unless perchance you should bestir yourself, wake up, get busy and decide to have an OIL-AIR BURNER installed in your cook stove or range—when presto! your doleful lamentations will be changed to a song of triumph— No fires to kindle, no coal to tote; No ashes to handle (that sure got got my goat). . My labor is lightened, I have time to spare; By the Oil-Air Burner, I am to swear, Not alone in the kitchen are its advantages seen, But the whole house over is more neat and clean. Get in line, join the chorus of satisfied users of the Oil-Air Burner. The women of the cities use natural or manufactured gas to cook with and their greatst regret when moving away from the city is that they will not have gas to use. The OILAIR BURNER makes its own gas from common coal oil (kerosene), and it is certainly the nsxt best thing "to natural gas. PEOPLES SPECIALTY CO., S. Van Rnsselar St. Advertisement.
