i Don’t make the mistake of buying a cheap range—a great many ranges are built to sell not to use. Dont make
| i mistake of buying the range you expect to last a lifetime “unsight unseen”—you’ll be sure to be disappointed. D
let any smooth-tongued salesman talk you into buying a n unknown range—get a Majestic and you re sure to be sj
! fied. Come to our store during the demonstration week—see the Great Majestic—find out why the Majestic is
per cent stronger than other ranges, where others are weakest. And remember we can show you hundreds of satis
Majestic owners in and around Newport—people who are just as enthusiastic about the Great Majestic as we are.
