u
ter of Importance and difficulty, now that so many
stoves are said to be "the best" Many dealers
would have one think that the merit of their stove
was in its pecularities and complications.
1t has been the design of the manufacturers Of
the Fearless to use such old principles the ex-
perence Of over thirty years has taught them t.
be the best adding some new features which will
themselves as being practical and scien-
tifc yet simple.
Some persons, in selecting n stove, hastily, pur-
chase such one as some friend has been using
many years. instead of looking around for the
stove that has the latest improvements, for grea,
progrc is being made in this branch of fnanufact-
ures, and the best stove Of few years ago is su-
perseded by that Of moro recent invention. The
Fearless is offered to the public as embodying all
that is desirable in frst-class cooking stove dis
carding those features which have rendered the
success Of so many stoves only partial. There arc
no complicated arrangements which confuse the
mind and the neglect Of which interferes with the
perfect operation of the stove. There are no ex-
ira hampers, ETC., which must be operated and at
tended to, that the work may be properly perform
ed but it is so simple that any one may use it
successfully.

ment in the kitchen, and the
BEAUTIFUL APPEARANCE
Of the Fearless is the first remark Of all who see
it, closer examination will show that the me-
chanical part Of the stove is such as to challenge
SMOOTH CASTINGS AND PERFECT FITTING
JOINTS
That cannot be eXcelled, are some evidences of
the care and expense bestowed upon these points
by the manufacturers. 1t is an air-tight stove in
which fuel is economical and all the heat utilized.
THE OVEN Is VERY LARGE AND PERFECT

saving OF at least one-third of the fuel made
The oven is heated very quickly, and the temper
allure is equal in all parts of the oven.
The steim and noxous gases are carried by a
tube connecting an opening in the top oven plate,
with the center top Of the stove which is double
and perforated, and thence to the fues of the
stove. The arrangement is as simple as it is eff
fective
THE HOT AIR DRAFT
IL one of the most important features of the Fear
less. The draft is furnished by opening the slides
in the front door. when the air comes in contact
with the heated doorlining passing out at the top
then by contract with the front fre-platc the tenn
perature is yet further increased before passing in
to the fire chamber The advantage of this sys-
TEN over that of admitting cold air directly into
the fire chamber, is shown by the rapidity with
which the stove can be heated, and the great saw
ing in the amount of fuel
ECONOMY
Can be practced t. the best advantage by the use
OF the Fearless, when using the stove for coal.
SHAKING THE CRATE
From the front of the stove, the ashes will fall
through.
DUMPING THE CRATE
by opening the wood door and turning the spin
die of the CRATE with the crank furnished for the
purpose, the contents of the fire-box are emptied
into the
CAST IRON ASH PAN
In the hearth and thence carried out BY the han
die; there is no occasion for any dust or ashes
getting into the room.
AN ASH SITTER
Is furnished with each stove by which tho coal
and ashes may be separated with very little srou-
ble The Fearless has
TIN LINED OVEN DOORS.
Which tit very closely, and havea
HARD WOOD KNOB OR HANDLE,
By which the doors can be opened with no danger
OF burning the hand.
The top oven plate and plato under the fre-box
are covered with
NoN-CoNDUcTING CEMENT,
So that part Of the oven is over-heated and the
oven-sde and space under the fire box is as avail
able asany part of the stove thus practically Civ
ing it
INCREASED OVEN CAPACITY.
The Fearless is made only of the best qualities
of new iron, so mixed as to secure tough strong
plate; and for
DURABILITY,
We can claim the Fearless as unexcelled. and the
cracking of any of the plates by fire can never
occur.
THE LARGE FLUES
Will ensure strong draft in the poorest chimney
and make the stove equally desirable for wood,
hard or soft coal. We make the stove with the
PLAIN TOP,
In which all the peculiar advantages are secured,
also with the
Low CAST IRON ENAMELED RESERVOIR,
In which the water is heated very quickly, wheth-
er the damper is turned up or down. The con-
venlence OF Low reservoir cannot be -estimat
cd. Those who have been accustomed to using
the old-ashioned high reservoir know how incon-
yenient it is to raise a pailful of water high
enough to pur into them, end will Welcome this
great improvement. The reservoir is only a couple
of inches above the top of the stove, to prevent
the dust on the stove top gettiug into the water,
and it makes space for
LARGE, HOT CLOSET
Underneath, which is also made of cast iron.
Thus the Reservoir and closet arc substantial Is
any part of the stove, great improvement over
those made of copper and tin, which leak and
rust out
WATER PIPES
Can be put in the Fearless for heating water for
bathing purposes.
THE DOUBLE STOVE COVERS
Are very durable and the air passes between the
plates preventing their getting red hot and burn
ing out. BROILING
Can be done on the top Of the stove removing the
front cover and center, and putting in the halt
moon pieces which make one large, round hole
The manufacturers Of the fearless have during
the past thirty years, made many excellent stoves
in fact the general superiority of all their goods is
known all over the country, but in the Fearless
they assert its being the best stove they ever
made, and confidently recommend il to all in search
I of the best cooking stove.
