Carbonoid Helps Save Coal
li
t&'i:
When you allow the dome and flues of your furnace to become covered with soot, you “choke your furnace” and reduce the heating power of the fire. Carbonoid removes the soot and gives you a greater volume of heat. Scientists say soot is a non-conductor of heat, and a coating of soot even i^-fnch
thick on the dome and boiler flues of your furnace will reduce the circulation of heat. You can remove all soot from your furnace and pipes, do away with all dost and dirt and get more heat from less coal by using carbon-
oid.
And that’s simple—just place the substance on the furnace hot coals, open your damper and the soot will go up the chimney in a creamy gas, without dirt or odor. Carbonoid is guaranteed to be fully satisfactory, and we offer it in packages priced at 25c and 50c. —Ayres—Sixth floor.

There’s None Smarter Than Duvetyne in Frockdom
You could easily understand how one might be so enthusiastic about the new models as to say they’re perfectly lovable—-their material in its supple softness would alone merit such an endearing description!
The shades are the kind, too, to emphasise the shadowy $s depths of tone natural to duvetyne—midnight and French blue ^ and soft browns.
There are enticing bloused stytorwith fly-away overskirts a bit after the coat-mode frock. Others are perfectly straight in line, a simplification of the Moyen age silhouette. And a third is a cunning peasant model of duvetyn combined with satin, in straight gathered skirt and plain blouse with round neckline and short sleeves.
Prices range from $61.00 upward to $169,50, and inchidmg models trimmed with nutria at $138.00.
They Are New Satin Models, Too Fascinating with beads, colorful and fancy stitching, and facings of Georgette crepe that somehow manage to be in evidence. These satin frocks are in dark blue, blade and dark brown, and are in a style range surprisingly varied. Their prices range upward from $49.00—with every price a moderate one in consideration of their quality and style. —Ayres—Gown room, third floor.
