"To have your roof last— Use Raberoid Roofing first " It's the Wear you get out of a roofing that proves its economy and its value — not the price you pay per roll. Cheap roofings are dear at any price. They cost ten times more for repairs than you could possibly save on their original cost—and they don't last. RUBEROID TRADE MARK REQ. U. S. PAT. OFFICl ROOFING is the most economical roofing you can use because it w^ill outlast any other. It is moderate in price, costs less than metal or shingles, and is weatherproof, wraterproof and fire- resisting. It is made in Red, Brown, Green and Slate Color and is the only permanent roofing with permanent colors.

They range in size from a capacity sufficient for the requirements of the largest apartment- house, or stock-farm, to the minimum, which suffices for the needs of the country cottage. Ease and economy of operation place these pumps in a class by themselves. The absence of fire or fuel does away with personal care, making their action automatic, while their con- struction is such, that they are operated by very ittle power; you simply attach a wire to the source of supply for your electric light, and the pressing of a button starts and stops your electric pump. Your pump may work just as long, and not a moment longer, than may be required, hence there is no waste of power. These pumps may be installed wherever a trolley line runs and, of course, wherever there is a public or private electric lighting plant. In point of simplicity, convenience, and labor- saving qualities, the 'Reeco" Electric Pump is a marvel; it is a wonderful demonstration of one of the many and varied applications of electricity to practical every-day uses. Is the electric light more convenient in your home than the lamp or candle? You will find that the "Reeco" Electric Pump bears the same relation to the hand pump and 'old oaken bucket," in its convenience and the additional household comfort which it supplies. Be sure that the name RFP;*fl"" Fl FPXRIP ^PPc^^s upon the pump you purchase. This HtWWU bktU I II lU name protects you against worthless imitations. When so situated that you cannot personally inspect the pump before ordering, write to our nearest office (see list below) for the name of a reputable dealer in your locality, who will sell you only the genuine pump Rider-Ericsson Engine Co.
