IDE LORAIN STEEL RANGE
“On Legs”--The Proper Way to Make
Them—A Decided Novelty In
Range Construction.
All the Good Points of the Regular Steel Range
Are Retained and In Addition New Features Which
Are Found Only In ,
/ $ 'it "
The Lorain.
The moft noticeable point of The Lorain Steel Range is that it is mounted
on legs which is a decided departure from the established construction of steel
ranges.
The Range setting up as it does from the floor keeps the nicked and japan-
ed parts away from the broom and scrubbing brush, the chemicals in washing
powders cannot eat the base, and the range can always be kept like new.
The floor can never get over-heated, nor will the floor rot under the range as
ordinarily constructed. You can cook around the range without continually
knocking your toes against the sidds.
The simple, pleasing harmony of design of The Lorain Steel Range will ap
peal to you. It’s good taste is unquestioned. ^ As closely as metal can, the
severely plain lines of the prevailing mode of “Mission Style” furniture is
followed.
The careful and reserved use of nickel enhances the appearance without
cheapening it. Wisely what nickel thereis left is smooth and plain. The range is
dignified in appearance. It has a quiet elegance you find in no other make.
The Test of Merit is Success.
You will find a good many other ranges that will be satis
factory for a time, but you will find no other which will re
quire so little fuel, which is so convenient and easy to take care
of, and which will last you as long as The Lorain. For the
test of merit is success and the great success of The Lorain pro
claims it meritorious.
