which fire is necessary, fire has been kept in

ant ,ssummer heat With careful management .
for if the door is left up, will burn SO rapidly
10 spoil the stove, and fill the room with smoke
which will puff out with great violence Another
thing must be attended to - the doors of the room
must not be left open constantly on the swing
for it will create heat last enough to supply any
apartment except its own. 1t takes about three
minutes to fill it, which is done going to bed
and then, unless The weather IS extremely cold,
windy, it will! need but very little if any more
wood, till tire next nigh at the same time. DC.
casonally the damper will have TO be raised little
and for short intervals during the day. 1t is per.
| fectly safe, when closed and may be left filed
with wood, without danger, for twenty four hours;
and on returning, the room will be warm and com

| On the whole, it is my opinion, that, properly
manufactured and properly managed, no stove is

'air tight, for studies, sleeping apartments sitting
rooms and sick chambers. One cord of sound,
dry, hard maple wood, will nearly supply a room
during the coolest winter, unless it is very large
and open and exposed to currents of fresh air from
without. would not be without for twice
this cost.
