From the Rec. "A. blanchard, of Warner, N. III.
About the first of February last | obtained one
of Orrs Air tight Stoves, aud placed il in a room
eight feet high, twelve wide, and fifteen long
This room had Two doors and four windows. 1t
was unexpected, and the doors and windows
not listed. During that part of the year in
which fire is necessary, a fire has been kept in
the night and day. All the wood that it has
taken keep fire for the twenty -four hours, has
been only what could bring in my arms at "ne
time. or sound, dry wood, il has never taken
more, to supply il during the coolest days we had
last winter, and this, thus far. The heat of this

place have ever used. 1t is like uniform, pleas-
ant, summer heat With careful management .
for if the door is left up, will burn 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 dous Of the room
must not be left open, constantly on the swing
for it will create heat last enough 10 supply any
! apartment except its own. 1t takes about three
minutes TO fill it, which is done on going to bed
and then unless The weather IS extremely cold, or
windy, il will! need but very little if any
wood, till the next night at the same time Oc-
caslonally the damper will have to be raised little
and for short intervals during the day. 1t is per

with wood without danger, for twenty four hours
and on returning, the room will be warm and com
Portable
On the whole, it is my opinion, that, properly
manut fractured, and properly managed, no stove Is
! SO cheap, economical, safe, and pleasant, as the

| rooms, and sick chambers. One cord OF sound,
dry, hard maple wood will nearly supply 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 one for twice
this cost.

Mr. SpauIdiRq DEAR Sir,-I have used for
few weeks the "Air. Tight Stove as manufactured
by you, and should be unwilling to dispense with
1t for any consideration. sing lie armiu of wood
put in at night or in the morning, lasts twenty four
hours, with further care, except perhaps an &C.
casional slight movement of the door, as we may
wish To raise or lower the temperature and in one
instance single supply of fuel lasted foriy-eight
hours. L have found ii an excellent article for
sck room, producing mild and equal temperature,
night and day. am confident that no convenien-
ces heretofore possessed can compare with this IN
cases of pulmonary affection, substitute for re"
moval to IA southern climate during win
ter seasons.
Yours, &c, HARVEY CURTIS.
From the Vermout Chronicles.
In this village, there is alright stove i'll q
+ room 20 eet by Is, and 8 feet inches high, with
four doors and three windows, and (the house old)
: plenty of cracks and crevices. A single armful OF
wood has sufced for the coolest "a hours thus far
in the season and without touching the stove in-
the meantime, the thermometer at the back part OF
the room is kept within half degree of the game
, roint for 10 to IL hours together The stove is
large, and is managed according to the directions.
NoTICE TO PURCHASERS. 1t is best to observe
strictly the Patentees directions till you clearly
see good cause to vary from them. They are the
result of the experience of several years.
BE sure to put in plenty of wood at time. AT
ter it is in, and charrod, it need be consumed only
so fast as the heat is wanted Be TO put in o.
nough to last through the day, and have u good
deal left when you replenish it at night.
