CLEANING?
Your lamj>s, oil cookstove or oil heater will not need
cleaning half so often ifyou fill tliem with ekiui, reliable
oil—Socony (So-CO-ny) Kerosene Oil.
NEW YORK-BUFFALO
Very often the lamp is blamed for smoking, smelling and forming wick crust, when it is really due to the use of in¬ ferior oil.
Kerosene is not all alike by any means—any more than all butter is alike. Or all flour, or all sugar.
Socony Kerosene Oil is the name of the Stand¬ ard Gil Company of New York's best kerosene. It is manufactured by improved refining meth¬ ods, and every gallon conforms to certain fixed standards of quality.
Say "Socony" to thegrocer's boy whenhecomes to take your oil can. I^^ook for the Socony sign on your grocer's window. It is a quality sign and one of the easiest ways to recognize a re¬ liable dealer.
We recommend the following oil burning de¬ vices as the best of their kind: Nero Perfection Oil Cookstoves and Water Heaters. Perfection Smokless Oil Heat^, Rayo Lamps and Lanterns.
