This means that from 10 to 25 cents of each dollar you spend for gaa ear-

Much of this waste can bo eliminated by stopping up the crevices around
outside doors and windows with efficient weather-stripping, and by plugging
the crocks under inside door* with felt or flexible rubber door-bottoms. In
{hia way, warm air it prevented from escaping and cold air from coming in,
with resultant increase in beating efficiency. -.
