new store in Campbell's Block, Fort street, op-
posite Wilder & Co., and has there a display of
useful goods calculated to delight the eye of np-
preciatiye housewives and excite the apprehen-

plated granite ware, q new material that,
being FIRE and acid-proOf, almost unbeatable, Of
handsome color and shape, light and graceful,
and withal Of moderate price, will take the fancy
Of very many wanting such goods. In the same
style, but manufactured OF " agate are plenty
OF water cans, tubs, trays, bowls, etc. These
goods are of plain, substantial make. and will
stand an immense amount Of knocking about.
Near these goods are heaped up what may be
called the . brio n brac " of tin ware. Cunning
devices for moulding, stamping and otherwise
tOrturing dough into odd and attractive shapes

A new and novel style OF range. or large cooking
stove. strikes US as being as fine i thing as we
have ever seen. The upper oven is twenty
inches square. and, combined with the lower
oven. gives a space large enough to roast 4 pig
and n turkey at once. The fre-bOx is fitted with
heavy steam piping so arranged as to lead the
water from the main into and around the fire-box.
where il is heated, and then passes into a large
ard Yery strong drum from which it can be led
all over the house. giving hot water in every
NOM If required. The arrangement is very COM
pIcse. and the whole stove combines the advan-
taoe= OF the Old-lashiOned woOd-burner and
the more modern 50 range" The upper floor Of
the store contains some very powerful tools for
cutting and punching sheet iron rapidly and
smoothly, besides all the ordinary machinery
nsed in the manufacture OF tin ware.
