Its reputation in this respect, however, was nearly lost several years ago. A county official down in the basement of the courthouse thought he detected a _ faint systematic thumping.

"Tuousanps of housewives in CALIFORNIA—more than 3 million in America, have found that electric refrigeration saves money on food. It reduces wastefulness caused by food spoilage. Lettuce, celery, stay fresh and crisp, tomatoes stay firm and easy to slice—milk, butter, meats, and fruits stay fresh and wholesome. Important, too, is that every day may be bargain day at your grocer’s and butcher’s when you can store away food specials in your electric refrigerator. Even in the warmest of summer weather, when things don’t “keep”, you can trust adequate refrigeration to preserve your perishables in the finest condition. Can you afford to-postpone much longer these opportunities for more thrifty living and the many conveniences as well, that electrical refrigeration brings? Ask about the very easy terms-on-which you can own an electric refrigerator. Make this practical investment today.
