Cfk/KING BY STE,cM AND MOT AIR.
QLATER'S improved PATENT STEAM KITCHEN
/ for Cooking In the most complete and economical manrer,
combines the advantages of in open fire place for roasting, Sr.
affording a constant supply of boiling rater, and is capable, if re-
quired, of warming vapour or water baths, rooms, dresser., &c. at
a distance of one hundred feet or more.

TheSteatri Kitchen for Ships use is on the same principle, but
made portable, and so arranged, that during the process of Cook-
ing. four quarts per hour of pure fresh Wittr is produced by distil-
lation front that of the sea, and eight quartz per hour during the
suspension of that operation, thereby securing, in ease of need.,
ninety-six gallons in the forty-eight hours, with a certain saving of
one-half the fuel necessary for the use of any other kind of ap-
paratus.
The simplicity and uniform arrangement of the whole, aithmit
being liable to be out of repair. together with the exchisien of evt ry
kind of inconvenience arising front badly-tinned coppers, excessiiv
heat, or disagreeable smell, are advantages obvious to every oral.
The Patentee's former Steam Kitchen and Roaster. with recent
improvements (and of which more than five thousand families ex-
perience the advantaees), continue to meet with Feneral approba-
tion; and, with the New Patent., may be seen, SLATER'S 1411-
proved PORTABLE FILTERING JARS.

HOUSE, London.
