New Patented Sef-Feeding Base burning
PARLOR FIRE PLACE STOVE.
Mr. S. B. Sexton is the original lnventorof the
Illuminating Baltimore Fire Place Heaters. -
His several succeeding patents have been I'M
provements, until this last is the superior of them
all. 1t excels all the popular Fire Place Stoves
in beauty of fnish tasteful carving, and IN heat
ing power. 1t is the result of twenty-tw" years
practical experience in inventing and manuiuc-
turing Fire Place Stoves, and combines all the
improvements of our former Stoves, Wit" addl-
tional improvements made this present season.
This Stove is decided success. Several hum
dred of them were put up in dwellings during
the latter part of the Fall and during the Win
ter and we have received many testimonials
giving them the highest praise for powerful
heating capacity and economy in the c"nSump-
ton of fuel ~ ~
added d new Fire Place Stove 10 our list this
season. This Stove is suitable for dining rooms.
It is very ornamental and would answer for par
lors also. 1t has the convenience of large oven,
which can be used for warming plates, and heat
ing irons, as we'll as baking and boiling:
We also manufacture the BALTIM URE
PARLOR HEATERS, which are Top-Fced
and Self. Feeding Stove. They are beautifully
finished and of great heating power.
