Grandma wiil tell you that PEARL OIL was a kerosene
leader in her day — just as it is now. It doesn’t give off smok%
soot or gases that might smell up rooms. It gives more heat
with bright steady flame that won’t creep up to scorch pie^
cakes. And PEARL OIL is pure—it all burns — no waste!
Use it in all your kerosene appliances. ‘
