Before the World War Russia CALORIC HEALTH The CaloriC system of heating is the applicaiton of nature's law of air circulation to heating buildings. The very basis of CaloriC efficiency is air in motion— constant change. Scientific tests show that air in every room in the CaloriC-heated home is changed practically every half hour. The CaloriC therefore is a ventilating system as well as a heating system. The CaloriC is unreservedly endorsed by hundreds of physicians throughout the country and by many thousands of discriminating people who recognize the vital importance of having, not only heat in their' homes, but pure healthful heat. CaloriC warmth is as pure and balmy as a June breeze! Cords Fabrics REDUCTION produced about 80 per cent pf the flax fiber used in making linens. This suppV was cut off, while the demand for linens continues as strong as ever.
