We desire especially to call attention to the
GAS STOVES

for heating and cooking purposes; they are
comparatively inexpensive, can be lighted or
extenguished in a moment, and can generally
be located in any part of a room by flexible
tubing and without cutting or defacing walls;
they are very suitable for rooms not supplied
rooms, etc, etc. The low price Of gas in this
c4ty. viz. 81 % Per i,tNJ tc... ACt IL prompt!
