No mail-order stove concern in the world offers such insurance on your investment. Why risk the unknown Mail-Order brands? 3—Bargains! Every stove or range sold by mail is (on paper) the "greatest bargain ever offered." There's magic in the word"bar gain"—it is one of the biggest assets of the mail-order system of stove selling. Don't Jet the "bargain" idea run wiih your business judgnunt. No mail-order stove concern can sell stoves for less than their market value without going bank rupt. The huge profits of mail order selling come out of the buyer's pocket. Your own good judgment will tell you that a local merchant, who buys stoves and ranges in carloads, will give you a better deal aad bigger valve than you can ever secure from any mail-order stove concern.
