The Test of True
AMERICANISM
The Germans say—America is not a Nation—it is a hodgepodge
of people—that we have no National spirit—no National soul.
The 25c thrift stamp is the test of Americanism—the test of HOW
MAN^t AMERICANS THERE ACTUALLY ARE!
The thrift stamp was issued so that EVERY American qould
help his country. And unavoidably the number of owners of thrift
stamps will be to the enemy the actual number of real Americans.
Every American'man, woman and child must come forward and
enroll as Americans. We’must answer this German libel by proving
ourselves ALL Americans."
J Don’t You See Why You—INDIVID
1 UALLY YOU—MUST—Buy
I Thrift Stamps and War
Saving Stamps
It is your inescapable duty to buy today your thrift stamp or war
savings stamp.
16 Thrift Stamps and 14c can be exchanged for a War Savings
Stamp and it will be worth $5.00 in January, 1923.
Your Post Office, any bank or any authorized agent will be glad
to sell you thrift stamps or War Savings Stamps---or answer any
questions regarding them.

The Copper-Clad I
Cabinet Range I
Looks Best, Cooks Best,and Cleans |
Like a Dish ■ t 1
The Copper-Clad is a Plain
Range. It is smooth like a dish.
It has no rivet and bolt heads
on the nickel. It has no hinges,
catches or latches on the out
side. They are all inside like
an automobile body.
The ebonized iron is framed
with a silvery nickel, making
it the most beautiful range in
the world. The ebonized iron
never cracks, peels or discolors.
It wipes clean like a dish.
The best thing about a Cops
per-Clad is f iat it outlasts any ~lj
range, because lined witn pure B
sheet copper where other rang- H |
es rust out. Between the H
sweaty asbestos and range body ^
or outer casing is a sheet R ;:.i;
copper that keeps the body per- k.
fectly dry and free of internal jl
No other range has this feat- H
ure. Some plate the inside V
linings—next to the heat, but Mftlj
that can not stop the sweat;
It’s got to be between the as- R||||
bestos and body. •
If the Copper Isn't Between the Sweat p Asbestos and Outer
Casing It Is NO 7 a Copper-Clad. || ML
