ETROIT VAPOR STOVES"Work Like Gas"
Burn, Oil, Gasoline or Distillate.. lr -. IThere are many times when the
happiness of the entire familyhinges upon the cooking and bak-ing qualities of the kitchen stove.A Detroit Vapor Stove insures therapid thorough baking necessary
for a perfect result of the housewife's most particular cookery on abirthday or other special occasion.Detroit Vapor Stoves give an intense even heat. They cook and bakeas fast as gas and at a cost much lower than with gas, coal or wood. Burn19 hours to a gallon.There are no wicks or wick substitutes. Durable 81 pound iron burnersvaporize the oil so that they really burn a gas instead of a liquid. Theburners give a hot blue flame that can be regulated to any requirement.The kettles go on as soon as the match is struck. Double walled ovensdistribute the heat and use it twice.Each stove is complete in itself. No pipes or pressure tank. It can beplaced anywhere for comfort and convenience.
