1t is no longer a matter of doubt that
gas will be the universal fuel III town
and cities for cooking purposes.
Its convenience, comfort and economy
hasalready been extensively demonstrated
even with the use of imperfect and make
shift appliances.
The rapid increase in the sale of these
appliances make it clear that the field for
effort and success in the sale of a COM
plete easily managed and economical gas
cooker is fully ready for the harvesters.
To this end the BLnsen-Rumford com
pany, with offices at Coal Exchange, mas
been organized for the manufacture and
sale of "ihe student Gri perfect
gas kitchener that has been three years
subject Of careful study.
Though occupying a space of only twen-
ty-four inches square 1t has all the ca
paCity and more than the convenience of
a coal or gas range with five. active fire
holes and which would require space
at least three by four feet
Moreover, the form of the Grill is such
that ii is ornamental rather than ugly
and 1t Is thus made desirable whether
the users live in palaces or apartments.
Further its construction is such that
1t can be quickly set to work perfectly in
any camp or n ountain or sea shore re-
sort.
1t can be used in a closet of moderate
size, or behind an ornamental screen in
the corner of any apartment. 1t is hand
some enough to stand by itself as a use
tul piece of furniture.
Many other points of interest are set
to any address when requested.
The grill was exhibited and a practical
demonstration of its capacity was made
before the Scranton Board of Trade at
its February meeting-suiiicient food and
sauces in elegant variety for fifty people
VAS prepared in the seCretarys palatial
office while the board meeting was in
progress and while the demonstrator had
had no previous experience in fine cook
cry, the expression of satisfaction and
positive delight over the results obtained
was universal.
The company begs to refer any who may
be interested In the personal opinion of
disinterested parties TO the honorable
president and secretary of the board, or
10 any member of the board who was
present on that occasion
1t is desired. to place the grill on the
general market early in the present sea-
son, and since all the details of manu-
flcture are completed, it only remains
20 make the. merits OF the grill widely
known to the general public.
Subscriptions to this end are invited
the immediate proposition being to place
quarter page advertisement in all the
cddinS magazines under a yearly con-
ract. II is believed this will bring a
nail order business sufficient to enable
ne company to pay a liberal dividend at
he end of the first six months and GER
lainly within "A year.
The grills are to be made under con-
tract and their cost will therefore be a
natter of absolute certainty. The obiec-
ions which some investors have to man
lldtluIlllS enterprises 90 not OBTAIN III
his case.
There will be no necessity for a large
stock OF grllS on hand and none out on
time accOuntS-no slow accounts nor bad
debts. The grlls will be made and paid
'or at fixed price only as fast as cash
)rders are received and tine money from
iales viii be in hand 10 meet every in
iebtcdness as fast as they accrue.
Proposing investors are cordially invited

company, No : Coal Exchange.
The capital stock OF the company will
1e $4,000 or 500 shares at $50 eaCh--25l

No more promising field for profitable
Investment can hc found anywhere today,
The grill will be attractiVely set before
he public In our magazine advertise
lents and we may reasonably expect
beral cash orders from every part Of the
'nted States and beyond.
We may reasonably expect early and
lberal dividends on the moderate in,
estment required and a consequent rapid
Increase in the value Of our shares.
