The Evidence in favor of Indianapolis By-Product Coke for all househeating purposes cannot be challenged. The demand today is for a smokeless city. The best way to make it a reality is to use a smokeless fuel—and man's ingenuity has improved on nature and given us coke—a fuel with all of the heating elements (carbon) possessed by the selected coals from which it is made, yet having none of the disadvantages of raw coal. But that is not all. Indianapolis By-Product Coke, besides being smokeless, gives maximum fuel value per ton, it holds fire a long time, is easy to handle and simple to regulate and conserves the housewife’s energies by freeing her from the dirt and soot which fill her home not only each time coal is delivered, but until the last ounce is burned. Why put up with such inconvenience when at your command you can fill your bins with a fuel that is clean and comfort giving and meets all of the essentials of an Ideal Fuel. Try It Now—Thousands Use It Spring Prices Are Lowest Phone Your Fuel Dealer Majestic A'l /I Main Bidg. Citizens uas Company 2541
