The Most Economical Stoves.

Those desiring soft coal heating
stove should examine our "Denmark''
and "Perfect" retort base heaters.
They are elegant in design and per-
feet in operation. We guarantee that
no coal gas can form IN the stove;
hence tho great objection to burning
soft coal is done away with. They
are powerful heaters, and the judg-
ment of j. A. Rupert and DR.. Mckay
who have used them, is that they do
more than is claimed for them and are
the most economical of fuel of any
stove they have ever used. We have
the "Todd," "Geld Coin" and box
wood.heaters, "Universal' and "Per-
fect""Base Burners" "Canon" stoves,
etc., for coal, at prices which will GER
tainly please our patrons. Call al"
examine our stock and we will save
you money. [sl5tf] COFFIN Bros.

attributed it to the hair being tightly
