When the advantages of natural gas are considered from the viewpoint of general utility, economy and convenience, it is readily understood why every modern household has adopted it, when available, in preference to any other fuel. While cleanliness in the home is one of the greatest advantages derived from the use of natural gas, a decided saving in cost will result from its use, as absolute control eliminates all waste, and maximum heat is produced immediately upon lighting, while the turning of a valve immediately stops the cost of operation, In supplying natural gas, we are really selling you service for which you would readily pay twice as much, after having experienced the annoyance and extra expense.
