A POOR RANGE WILL SPOIL THE BEST COOK

You are not always to blame when a roast goes bad in the oven—­when a cake falls in the centre—­the fault may be with your gas range—­your oven does not heat uniformly or you have to use too much gas to get the results you are after.

The Fortune gas range was designed to help you cook.  The Fortune is not merely our conception of what a good gas range should be.

The Fortune gas range is, on the other hand, the result of exhaustive scientific study—­stands today without a peer.  The Flex-o-tuf iron used in its construction insures long life and continued good service—­you can depend upon it.  You know that it does not waste fuel, and because domestic science teachers and lecturers have endorsed it, that it is the one and most practical range for you.
