The oven is on a level with the shoulders--so yo i have no lifting, no stooping, no steam or odors to inhale when baking in Cole's High Oven Range. You can operate the oven in a comfortable, erect position. a The natural course of heat is to rise. We have taken advantage cf this and have placed the oven high instead of down low. The heat rises around all four sides of the oven evenly. All sides are heate& alike. Your baking will not be over-baked on one side and half-baked on the other. The temperature of the oven can be changed in less than a minute, yet you can keep it the same for over two hours on one charge of fuel--so perfect is the fuel combustion. Every atom of heat is utilized, due to our patented Hot Blast Combustion (which burns the wasting gases) and to the patented air-tight construction, giving a great saving in fuel. Cole's H gh Oven P-'.ange equals the work of ranges which cost twice as much. This New Improved Cooker and Baker is a money saver for you to use. It will save fuel and will lessen your work--you have only one fire to give attention, 3 drafts to regulate, no dampers -- it's simply a wonder. Let os show yon its many good features which were made to please particular housewives.

Here it is in a nutshell. Cheap mixed paint is a poor buy--it's cheap, it's shoddy, it won't wear or give satisfaction. So it isn't worth considering. Hand-mixed lead and oil is good as far as it goes, but it is impossible for anyone with a paddle and bucket and working by rule of thumb to make as good a paint as that which is worked out on a strictly scientific formula and mixed and ground by powerful machinery. Good prepared paint, such as Sherwin-Williams Paint (SWP), will give the best of results. It is made of Pure Lead, Pure Zinc, Pure Linseed Oil and the necessary coloring pigments and driers, all combined according to exact scientific formula, the result of over 40 years* experience in paint making, and mixed and ground by powerful machinery designed especially for the purpose. The result is a paint that covers most surface and wears longest. Just call and get color cards and all information.

"A Millionaire Tramp," coming on next Sunday evening at the Central opera house, is to amuse the patrons of wholesome and instructive amuse­ ments, as it were, holding up the mir­ ror of nature and revealing the mys­ teries of the workings of crime in. some of the big cities. The story is a pretty love story of heart interests, showing what disappointment will cause some unscrupulous villains to resort to, to blast and ruin the life of another, and how, by the untiring efforts of the everwatchful detective, crime finally gets its reward and justice achieves its victory over wrong doers. The management of the present company has saved neither labor nor expense in putting forth the present company to interpret this great play, and has sur­ rounded the same with scenic effects suitable to the action of the play, giv­ ing it the naturalness of life. Many pleasing and novel specialties will be introduced during the action of the play. 17-1 "A MILLIONAIRE TRAMP." One of the government's most able sleuths will be here on Sunday even­ ing, Oct. 15- This announcement should not be read with any fear or scruples of trouble on the part of the community. Honest, law abiding peo­ ple hail with pleasure a "detective" in their midst, and the name only strikes terror to the lawlere and unscrupulous criminal.
