From DR.. Samuel Ridder, Of CharLeStOton Ms.
This may certify that have used in my family
the air-tight Stove invented by Rev. Isaac Orr,
and found it fully to answer the description given
of 1t by him, and to consume during winter, or
while the weather is cold as TO need fire in IA
dining room, only one cord of wood Tho room
was warm during the day and night, that plants
hourishcd and grew quite as well as if they had
been in green house. If could get no other
Airtish int Stove, would not take Fifty Dollars for
Iit,-so highly do | value 1t. II proper attention Is
paid to The door and damper will venture TO say,
it will be found tho most comioi table. convenient,
and economical of any stove in use. have had
the stove above referred to in use about seven
wears. (Sisnedl SAMUEL KIDDER.

the stove night and day. All the wood that IT has
taken to keep fire for the twenty-four hours, has
been only what could bring in my arms at one

! On the whole it is my opinion, that, properly
manufactured, and properly managed, no stove Is
so cheap, economical, safe, aud pleasant, as the

rooms, and sick chambers. One cord OF sound
dry, hard maple wood, will nearly supply room
during the coolest wiGtCr unless 1t rs very large
