T his is an instrument that lias but recently been

A newspaper advertisement is too limited to
describe the variety, bc3uty, and superiority of
his assorimentinent of STOVES; a few only can
be noticed. The ventilated AIR TIGHT
STOVE, admirably suited for the dining room,
chamber or nursery, vastly superior to any stove
of the kind heretofore ofTcrcd. ALSO—
The self regulating Air Tight Stove, anew
and beautiful article, by which any degree of
temperature required may be obtained.

among the rest the Cook's favorite Improved —
For the superior excellence ot this Stove, he
takes pleasure in referring to a few subjoined

We the undersigned have used in our families
the “Cook's favorite Improved" Cooking Stove, for
the last year or two, and have no hesitation in
recommending it to those who wish a first rate
Cooking Stove. We believe it superior to any
that we have yet seen, as regards economy in
fuel, simplicity and efficacy in its operations, and
to be what its name purports to be, the Cook’s
Favorite.

able to attend to her usual domestic duties. !*•
