to tell Europe how to stop a war; as the man who declared "history is bunk;"
as the man who discovered the Jewish menace; as the man who advised
America as to what dances it should adopt, and also as the man who made
$100,000,000, or maybe it was $1,000,000,000. As usual, it does not
occur to him that others--for example, physicians—know more about the
food value of milk than he does. He has made $1,000,000,000, or possibly
it is $1,000,000,000,000, and that, of course, entitles him to speak.

Nokol
leadership is
no accident
75,000 oil burners installed in the United
States, by 347 manufacturers, 22,000 are Nokols.
This leadership is no accident. Founded on a sound
method of burning oil, for eight years Nokol has
beets steadily improved. In buying Nokol today,
you buy the benefit of this improvement and
experience.
Nokol enables you to use a higher grade of oil
than the ordinary burner. It is not forced by in
efficient operation to resort to the use of heavy,
low grade oils that cause smoke and soot and
coagulate in cold weather. Nokol burns a cheap
distillate vs-hich will always be plentiful, the most
desirable fuel for home use.
The fuel cost of Nokol burning distillate is not only
less than that of hard coal—it is to the best of our
knowledge less than that of any other oil burner
regardless of the grade of fuel used.
Cold weather is only two months away.To be sure of
having your Nokol by fall, call or phone us today.
