Increase fthe Efficiency of Your Hot Air Furnace In many houses, owing to the structural design or lack of head room, or on account of the long runs necessary, it is impossible to install a furnace with pipes having sufficient rise, and of the proper lengths to insure even moderately rapid distribution of heat. The result of such conditions is that in many cases a large proportion of the heat of the furnace radiates into the surrounding cellar or goes to warm the pipes or walls of the house; the air falls in temperature before reaching the outlets to the rooms by reason of its slow travel through the pipes; a more intense fire built to remedy these conditions results merely in a larger proportion of waste of fuel and in only a very slight increase in heat delivered to the various rooms. A furnace equipped with AN ELECTRIC FURNACE BLOWER is sure to relieve- these conditions as it rapidly forces the heated air through all the outlets to the various rooms of your house where it is needed. AN ELECTRIC FURNACE BLOWER combines extreme durability, quietness of operation and high electrical efficiency, in an outfit which may be conveniently installed in new or old furnaces.

Everybody chooses "Wyeth's" Sage and Sulphur because it darkens so naturally and evenly that .nobody can tell it has been applied. You Blmply dampen a sponge or soft brush and draw this through the hair, taking one small strand at a time which requires but a few moments. Do this at night and by morning the gray hair has disappeared and after another application it becomes beautifully dark and appears glossy, lustrous and abundant.
