From one to more than 16 gallon

and circulated in the home to make
the atmosphere humid enough for
health and comfort, ficcording to “Hu:

on the subject, this book is written in
non-technical terms so that it can

Shows Dry-Air Menace.
| Scientists’ reports are cited, show-
|ing that the atmosphere in most
| American homes is as dry as that ov-
er deserts. The effects of this condi
tion—in causing colds and other sick-
| ness, in depriving the American miss
{ of her natural complexion, and In
making rugs and carpets fuzz and
wear out—are described,
Then the booklet states the correct
| air condition as 70 degrees of warmth
| and 45 per cent relative humidity. To
: show just how this deal can be at-
i tained in every home, the Institute's
engineers have calculated the amount
of moisture that must be supplied
|in homes of every size.
Describes All Humidifiers.
The booklet closes with a discus-
i sion of all the household humidifiers
| that home owners have to select from,
j including the automatic air moisten-
j er that is part of the vapor-aire heat-
| ing system,
Publication of the “popular educa
' tion series” of books on air condi-
! tions in the home is in line with the
| Institute’s object “to teach the Amer-
lican home owner the science of
| healthful heating through the control
; of temperature, humidity and air mo-
| tion.”

ROUND FLUE FOR
BEST OPERATION
| All chimney flues have one of four
| shapes—round, square, rectangular or
! oval—and it makes a lot of difference
! whieh one it is, according to the Hol-
land Institute of Thermology of Hal-
| land, Mich.
. Smoke and gases from the heating
! plant rise through the flue in the form
of a spiral. A
round flue accom-
modates this mo-
tion without re-
tarding the gases
by friction. But

{a current of air more than 5 degrees

used in summer to keep the home
cool as well as in winter to keep it

Seeing Is Believing
It has a longer wheelbase, a stronger frame,
a more powerful motor and a larger body
than any car under $1000. It affords more
room, comfort and refinements. It gives full
advantages of a really fine BIG car. Not
cramped or cheapened in any way. It holds
the road better, handles easier and performs
smoother. It is a safer car to ride in and a
more durable car to invest in. If this sounds
exaggerated, remember we put it entirely
up to the car itself to prove all of these claims.
You will find improvements found in no
other car under $1000. You will find ad-
vantages you thought were obtainable only
in high priced cars. You will find that if
the car does not sell itself you will not be
asked to buy.

at its low cost. If you have not seen and
driven this Eight you are missing the
“buy” of the year.
