Warning
The householder who gets his winter's supply of an
thracite coal in his cellar within the next few weeks need
have no fear of repetition of the severe winter of 1917-18.
To hold off ordering until fall means a rush at that time
which the mines and railroads will not be able to handle.
*
If coal is not kept moving into the cellars of the houses
now, there will be a curtailment of production which can
not be made up in the fall. This is likely to create a
serious condition for the householder which will be diffi
cult to remedy.
The price of coal cannot he reduced. On the contrary, the
high cost of mining, transportation and local delivery to your
home makes an increase in price absolutely necessary. The costs
are steadily advancing, and hoiv far they will go cannot now he
foreseen.
We arc daily receiving excellent quality coal at our three
yards, located at Forster & Cgwden Sts., 15th & Chestnut Sts.
and 7th & Woodbine Sts. Phone us your order while quantity is
highest and prices lowest.
