HOUSEKEEPING GOODS.

Our gentle housekeepers will be especially in
terested in knowing just where to go or send for
house-furnisbIng, house-warmIng and house
keeping goods. And to meet every conceivable
want Nh. SAM. .NoTT has opened and filled n
new store in Campbell's Block. Fort street, OPP
posite Wilder & Co., and has there a display of
useful goods calculated to delight the eye Of ap-
preciative housewives and excite the apprehen-
sions Of their husbands. Almost Immediately
upon entering the establishment our eye Is caught
by n display Of tea and coffee services IN nickel
plated . granite ware, n new material that,
being FIRE and .acid-prOof, almost unbreakabIe, Of
handsome color and shape, light and graceful,
and wifhal of moderate price, will take the fancy
Of very many wanting such goods. In the same
style, but manufactured of = agate arc 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 a brac " Of tin ware. Cunning
desices for moulding, stamping and otherwise
torturing dough into odd and attractive shapes :;
tin tools for making work, woman's work e.
peeiaIly. much easier. Esg-beaters that Gu
minzle the white and the yellow intimately, or
produce the loamy l~ightness called : frosiins
mysterious shapes in tin wherewith to CRATE and
puIverize, slit and scatter, strain and mingle all
condiments and powders. Yankee devices for the
cook and baker abound. Rotary parers and
peelers, and an odd little tool for reducing
the ungainIy potato into the delicate shavingS to
be cooked "a Ia Saratoga" Brushes for all
cleaning purposes. and arranged 50 as to reach

all sizes. With these one can always have a cup
of hot tea. coffee or punch for that matter-if

A new and novel style of range. or large cooking
stove. strikes us as being as fine a 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 u pig
and a 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 fre-bOx,
where it Is heated, and then passes into a large
and very strong drum from which it can be led
ali over the house. giving hot water in every
room If required. The arrangement is very com
plete, and the whole stove combines the advan-
tages Of the Old-iashiOned - wOOd-burner and
the more modern - range" The upper hJOr OF
the store contains some very powerful tools fnr
cutting and punching sheet iron rapidly and
smoothIy. besides all tie ordinary machinery
nsed in the manufacture Of tin ware.
