practical application to the
I mma
Smokeless
9
Until science discovered a way to construct the Automatic
Smokeless Device, and make it completely dependable, all oil
heaters had one common great fault—smoke.
With the advent of the Automatic Smokeless Device, and its
PERFECTION
©IS Heater
'(Equipped with Smokeless Device)]
the smoke problem was successfully
solved.
The Perfection Oil Heater is the
only heater equipped with this
Automatic
Smokeless Device
which insures a steady, full-glowing heat,
with the wick turned up as high as it will
go, without a shred of smoke. Reverse the
motion, turn the wick down—there’s no odor.
The smokeless device automatically locks
and prevents the upward movement of the
wick beyond the proper exposure. That
is the secret. This splendid result gives
leadership to the Perfection.
You may now have all the heat you want—when you want it—and
where you want it—without the annoyance of smoke or odor.
Brass font holds 4 quarts of oil, which permits a glowing heat for 9 hours.
Brass wick tube—damper top—cool handle. Cleaned in a minute.
The Perfection is beautifully finished in Nickel or Japan. ,
