If you have one of the ordinary
fueldevouring wood heaters you
will be glad to know of the
new principle of the Down Draft
that saves onehalf the fuel This
principle is found only in the
Wilson
Hot Blast
HEATER
Feed the fire half as often
half as much at a time the down-
draft prevents waste of heat up
the chimney forces back all
gases into the fire where they
are burned
Because the Wilson is airtight
fire can be held for 36 hours
also perfect combustion is
made possible
We sell the Wilson Heater
