StaIIinqs' Bio Refrigerator.

The big refrigerator which the GOLD
LEAF announced had been purchased
by John D. Stallings, the popular
fancy grocer, has arrived. And even
before ice had been put in the thing
the thermometer went down. The
atmosphere has been decidedly chilly
ever since it struck town. The pres
ence of this gigantic cooling appar-
atus in Stallings' store may not have
had anything to do with the weather
but the GOLD LEAF is merely stating
conditions, not causes. But with it's
800 pounds of solid refrigidity stored
away in the ice chamber there can be
no doubt that it will keep everything
cool within the area of its four sides
if it has no effect upon the weather
outside.
The refrigerator has a front of 6
feet 4 inches, and is B feet inches
deep front to back. 1t stands Z
feet high and weighs 1,2OO pounds.
1t has capacity OF 800 pounds of
ice and is most conveniently ar
ranged in point of construction. The
ice chamber is above with compart-
ments on each side for butter, cheese,
eggs, sausage, and such goods as are
kept in small quantities. Below are
two large compartments with sliding
bottoms fixed on rollers easily drawn
out or pushed back in place. This
for the handling OF more bulky
goods. At the bottom are two more
compartments in which to keep such
things as cereal foods and other ar.
ticles of like character.
The advantages OF an apparatus
of this kind in a fancy grocery estab
lishment are too apparent to require
comment. Mr.. Stallings proposes tt
conduct a strictly first-class, up-to
date, city like grocery, where may b.
found at all times the freshest ant
best goods to be had in the grocer,
line. and at prices that are right.
