It is well also to remember that it is not so much a matter of cost or expense as of atâ€" tention to the little items that taken together sum up comfort and security. ‘_ Just consider a few points! Start at the outside of the home! Whether you Ccommence at the top and go down, or at the bottom and go up you will soon note that there are many items to be considered. Starting at the roof, is that important part of the home as it should be?â€"Check the roofâ€"to be sure there are no. lecks ;or: weak spots. I Timmins Simple in operation and economical are these heaters and built to Beach‘s high standard of perfection. A great little heater. vory low. You don‘t buy a kitchen range very often . . . once or twice in a lifetime . . . yet there is no other piece of furniture in the home that is called upon to give as much service as the stove. A good stove is the housewife‘s most important helpmate and therefore her interest should be carefully considered when selecting a range. A smart appearing quality range of strictly modâ€" ern design not only brightens up the kitchen but inspires greater interest in cooking, making it a pleasure instead of a drudgery. shown at right is a new Beach air circulating type, built on the prinâ€" cipal of the successful Beach furnace.

Quebec Heaters from $12.00 from $26.00 Circulators Beach engineers, through scientific reâ€" search, have det€rmined the exacting requirements for quick troubleâ€"free cooking and have built this range which truly represents a new standard in coal range perfection.

BEACH R Priced from $40 and up in Coal and Wood Ranges Perhmaps a survey of the exterior of the home may tempt you to some reâ€" modeling of the house. There is time Of course, this is the right time to see to storm doors and windows. It is well to see that the storm doors and windows are not only put on now, but that they are put on right. A local nuan last year made the boast that atâ€" tention to storm doors and windowsâ€" sceeing that these additions to comfort were in place to the best advantazeâ€" meant dollars saved to him as well as winter comfort. Then there is the matter of paint! Keeping the exterior of the house painted is not only a matter of apâ€" pearance, but often it means also a matter of real economy. All the windows should be >xamined. If there are places where the windows do not fitâ€"where weather or other causes have taken tollâ€"now is the time to make the few repairs that will reâ€" duce the fuel bill as well as providing for mor»e comfort. If any panes are cracked or broken, now is the time to replace the glass. Even the putty round the panes is worth considering! Here a very little expense or work will mean much in comfort and appearance. Don‘t imitate the Irishman of the story who claimed that nothing could be done about the leaking roof of his home, because when it was raining it could not be fixed, and when it wasn‘t raining there was no nsed for fixing. In the present fall daysâ€"when the weather is comparatively mildâ€"the roof should surely be put in the best possible condition.
