BOYNTON'S ELEVATED OVEN RANGE

This new and beautiful Range which has Just
been completed, is offered to the public as the
most complete, convenient and desirable Elevated
Oven Range in the market, and is the result of long
experience in the manufacture and setting of Cook
ing Ranges and we do not hesitate in recommend
ing it as the nearest to perfection of any Elevated
Oven Range in the country.
We will enumerate some Of the peculiar advan-
tages this Range possesses
First--H is more beautiful in form and design
than any other pattern.
SecOnd-It has much larger hot place Surface
for Boilers and Stew Pans afording larger accom-
rnodations for Cooking purposes.
Third-It has smaller Fire Chamber, and burns
less coal than any other pattern of Elevated Oven
Range for the simple reason that the fire chamber
is entirely surrounded with fire brick instead of an
open CRATE in front and water back in the rear,
forming two sides of the fire las in all other pattern
ranges both of which chill and deaden the fire and
detract largely from the power, and make it abso-
lutely necessary to burn a larger amount of fuel
Fourth-The body of this Range is higher than
other patterns and is more like the French Kitch-
eners, making it much more convenient and easy
for the cook. III -
Fifth-The hot closets are more accessible,
placed in natural position (being in the body of
the Range) instead OF above the ovens as in other
patterns.
Sixth--The ovens do not project over the boiling
surface SO as to make it inconvenient in removing
the boilers, as in other patterns. ff' l5'E t~.
Seventh-There are better arrangements for con-
veying the steam to chimneys and controlling the
draft, than most ranges. ....- O.,
Eighth-The ovens bake more evenly, as we have
a return fue over the top of the oven (which is the
point that most often fails thus securing perfect
baking oven on the top as well as on the bottom.
Ninth-The fues in this range are all complete In
themselves SO that it is unnecessary to form them
of brick, (Which absorbs the heat) and makes the
setting of them much more simple and sure.
Tenth-The water back can be removed and the
plumbing work can be repaired, if necessary, with
out disturbing the brick work.

The Democracy of Monmouth coun-
ty are likely to have q contest over the
nomination for State Senator. A con-
siderable number of the party mana
gers favor the denomination of Hon. II.
S. Little, but others very strongly
object, alleging that Mr.. Little has moi
done as much as he might have done
as Senator to promote the interests Of
the county, and insisting that some
better representative of the aggressive
sentiment of the party should be NOM
mated. The Monmouth Democrat
supports Mr. Little, but his Opponents
have access to the columns of the In
qnirer, the Republican paper, and are
keeping up a steady fire in opposition
to his nomination. 1t is quite likely.
however, that he will finally beat the
field, as we shall be glad to see him
