THE PEERLESS OIL sTOVE-NO SMOKE-NO
9MELL--NO DANGER.

The public have long needed and demanded a
good substantial stove, and this end has been
reached in the manufacture Of the Peerless Oil
Stove. 1t is absolutely and perfectly safe and will
do any and all kinds of cooking as well as any
wood or coal stove will bake bread, pies and cake
quickly and evenly. Steak can be broiled better
and quicker than on any other stove For laun-
8dry purposes 1t is unsurpassed. 1t can be placed
close to the ironer and will keep the irons hot
without heating the room a particle.
