Three Kinds of REFRIGERATORS
There are three distinct classes of Refrigerators.
Beginning fit the bottom, they are:
1. LOW GRADE—the
, ."bargain, sale" kind. Cost ££¥1
little—worth less. Ice con- v1-1
sumption enormous, effi-
ciency almost nothing.
2. MEDIUM GRADE—
pretty to look at—many
of them really well built
—but all of them lacking
in two vital essentials of
refrigeration.
3. BOHN SYPHON—
The Queen of all Refriger
ators, and so acknowl-
edged all over the world.
No other refrigerator is
licensed to use the
BOHN Sphon System of
rapidly circulating pure, cold, dry aft. No other refrigerator
is insulated with “Flaxlinum,” the greatest heat-resisting in-
sulation ever made. . Ice consumption small—efficiency
100%—absolutely sanitary.
This illustration shows but little of the real merits of the
BOHN—does not show its one-piece, seamless porcelain-
fused into-sted lining—does not show how it keeps every-
thing cold, clean and dry. COME SEE IT.
