HedHh ana Economy great deSideratum.
The advantages which the poRIc FIREPLACE
possesses over all other Stoves, and other contri-
Vances Tor burning coal, are numerous The COM
mon hre place or crate, Is the worst among them
all. II Is dcplorabe to witness the enormous loss
OF heat caused by rush Of cold air from every
hole, crack and crevice by door and window in
this way three iourths of the heat passes up the
chimney, and is Il total loss. If recourse be had
TO stove, it is next TO impossible to regulate the
quantity OF fuel SO as to have n medium heat YOU
must raise it to red heat, or do without fire
there Is no way by which a mOderate heat can
be had in stove in burning the anthracite coal
Besides this, the air, passing over the heated iron
plates, becomes vitiated and unfit to be received
by the lungs; the Doric Fire Place supplies the
defects OF the former, and removes the objections
to the latter. II presents classic front, an entab-
latIre supported 10y Doric columns whence il de-
rlves It's name. 1t yentilatcs while it warns. They
are easily kept clean without the daily labor of
brightning, as is the case where brass is used -
''The style is simple and elegant. and consumes
but a small quantity Of coal" They are various
IN form and size, and are made to suit Steam
boats, Churches, Public Offices, Stores, Halls,
Sifting Rooms and ParlOrs.
The incesSant supply of fresh cold air which
clrcuates between the lining s. the outside, makes
The IRON nearly mdestructible, and consequently
they VIII last Tor great many years uninjured.
In support Of these positions we adduce the fol-
lowing testimonials.
We the subscribers, residents Of Boston, New
Bedford, and the vicinities, having used and pro-
we'd to our satisfaction the Doric Fire Place, re-
commend it TO the public for the following rea-
sons, viz
ls-Because it secures the safe s. entire COM
busion of the coal
2d-Because it snpes the heat produced by
that combuston and converts it to use, by diiius-
ing It equally and pleasantly through the room.
3d-Because It secures the room from the epHs
of a smoking chimney, without recourse TO the
bad alternative Of an open door or window.
| 4th-Because it combines and in itself unites all
the principal advantages Of both the usual modes
Of communicating heat by radiation,-as in
common fire places. and by transmission as in
close stoves securing the benefits of both. with
out the evils Of either. Ii tcaymS while it remit
lates the room.
! 5th-Because it is so far portable that il can
be set into common Fire Place, and again reno
we'd from it without injury to the jambs-so that
it may be used by a tenant without becoming
fixture.
6th-Because its construction or arrangement
Of parts is such that the iron plates are ndestruct-
Bile by the heat, and will thereto last indefinite
y.
