Gas Consuming Cooking Stoves,

TTlESE Stoves have hollow CRATE of such
i II form that the air, entering through
holes in front Of the stove, must traverse
one bur after another before it escapes into
the buck. fire plate. which is also divided
into passages through which the air must
pass before it escapes through pcrlorations
into the fuel, so that the latter is subjected
to two series of III oronghly heated air which
tend rflrctual'y tn consume the gases mixed
with the product of combustion. The advan-
tagcs of this arrangement is the great econ
ony in consumption Of fuel and the thorough
cqnaliziag of the heat throughout tn: oven.
The stoves are warranted to give satisiac-
ton, and are offered at city prices for cash.
