To Housekeepers:

There is nothing which interests all in
sehlgent housekcepers as cooking and how
TO do 1t with the least friction, the
avoidance OF all smells, and the unneces-
sary heating of the house at breakfast
Time, again at dinner, and if that was not
enough, heating of the already hot rooms
once more for supper. All this has n
tendency TO keep the good lady of the
mouse III an Ill humor, and sometimes the
husband in "hOt water" ANY device
which would Sweeten the temper of the
wife would be appreciated by the husband.
Sucn a device is now on exhibition at 439
seventh street northwest-it is the Vapor
Stove. The stove is clean, does not smoke,
mas no ashes, has no wicks TO get ont
or order like the oil stove, does not smoke
OF smell like any of them The Stoves
are made In several sizes, SO that the are
suitable for the largest, as well as the
smallest family. The Stove can be placed
In any room in the house, and the lady can
COOK her dinner in q silk dress, without
having her dress solled, or any odor, or
SCOT, or smoke In the room 1t is econom-
ical in fuel and time-in one minute from
the time you light the Stove it is ready
TO Dron your steak, boil your eggs, or
bake your biscuits 1t is economical as To
fuel-a meal for an ordinary sized family
land Dy ordinary size we mean six or
seven) can be cooked for one cent, say
eiAtCS SCAeS % QdJ VI d uOiidI d IlOntn. III
You had wood given to you, it would cost
this much to have it cut up. The Stovehas
been In use for many years. Recently lymany
improvements have been made in it, and is
now as easy to cook on as a gas stove
while the cost is much less, and the heat
from the burners greater than any other
form of stove. There are thousands of
these stoves In operation, and are giving
perfect satisfaction, as one lady remarked:
Next to her husband, she loved her Vapor
Stove," and strange to say this woman
loved her husband very much. From a
careful estimate made during the present
month, from nine to ten thousand OF these
devices will be sold In the city of BaIti-
more during the present year, and nearly
half that number in Washington-the ma
tional capital. The Stoves are simple and
SO easy to handle that even a child can
safely use them. They need much less
care than a common wood or coal stove,
and If properly handled no more dangerous
lin fact, not so much So These Stoves
arenow on exhibition at 435 Seventhstreet
northwest, and the people interested in
these labor-saving devices are cordially in
vited to be present. A competent cook in

taste what may be done on these Stoves,

greatest blessings woman has had con-
ferred upon her have been the vapor Stove
