X. s. STEvENs-Sir:-Ih have used one of the Pa
tent Galvanized Ovens of your manufacture for five
years. When purchased anticipated much from
it, from what had heard; and can say that II has
more than met my expectations. II is decidedly a
great improvement over any other invention that
have seen for all kinds of baking, and think the
same amount of cooking eau be done with one-quar-
ter OF the uel used by any other process My folks say
it is pleasure to the Galvanized Oven, the heat
being so confined that they suffer no Inconvenience
from il, even in the warmest weather. l can with
confidence recommend it to the public. 1t needs on
ly to be tested TO be approved.

X. S. STEvENs-Sir:-We have used in family
for the last five years of yonr Patent Galvanized
Ovens. and would most cheerfully recommend 1t 10
the public. Mrs w says it would be almost the last
article OF furniture in the house that she should part
with. She considers it as great improvement in
baking and roasting the cook stove, the cook
stove is over the old-fashioned way with the open
IRE for cooking. 1t great deal of fuel and is
great comfort in warm weather, as it heats the
room so little.
1t seems TO me that when its merits arefuly known
that it must come into general use for family who
has ever had it. afford to be without it.
