Bishop has devoted his vacation to

"A strange thing happened last Sun
day in connection with that Bible he
said. We had a strange minister
preaching here, and when he opened
the Book he came upon notice and
read it out with all due solemnity.
1t was a request for the congrega-
TONS sympathy and prayers for John

: Among the advantages Of stove that
hangs on the wall instead of standing
on the floor, the author mentions sim
plicity and cheapness of installation,
the saving of floor space, cleanliness
there being no inaccessible place under
the stove to accumulate dust and dirt
and the more uniform warming Of the
room. Besides all the advantages of
the ordinary gas-stove. these new wall
stoves thus have good points Of their
own. In connection with them, the in
ventor has devised a novel form of au-

gas from escaping at the burner, thus
obviating danger of asphyxfation or ex-
plosion and ''swivel burner" by means
of which the stove may be lighted

A New form of gas stove, the inven-
ton of Professor Junkers, of Dessau,
Germany, may be placed on the wall
any desired height instead of standing
on the floor. The inventor, who has
patented his device in the principal
countries of the world, believes that
although stove using heavy, compact
fuel must necessarily stand on the floor,
the adoption of gas may well free us
from old traditions and from the
clumsy forms hitherto in use. Profess
sor Junkers' wall-stoves are described
In Casters Magazine (New York. No
vember) by William Paul Gerhard,
who says:
1.-The course of the cold air, of the
heated air, and of the hot gases is
shown by three different kinds of ar
rows The stoves are constructed of
excellent material and the workman
ship is of the best. The cold air is
drawn in at the bottom, or very near
the floor line, and passes upward at the
rear behind the reflector and thence
through a number of fiat tubes, ascend
ing toward the front of the stove, and
after being heated by these tubes,
which are surrounded by the hot gases
from the burner, the air. now warm,
passes out into the room vertically up
ward, and also forward at the front
Of the stove. This secures a strong
circulation of the air of the apartment,
while at the same time the rays from
rne reflector, which are projected down.
ward, tend to warm the floor and the
bwer strata of air. In this way a room
may be quickly and uniformly heated.
There is complete combustion of the
gas, the heat units generated are uti-
med to best advantage in the heating
surfaces, and very intense heat is pro-
duced. The hot gases, after having
done their work around the air-tubes,
pass out at the top through the fue A,
which is connected with any available
chimney fiue. These gas-heating stoves
are odorless and perfectly sanitary. be-
cause there is no chance for products
OF combustion to escape into the room
1t should be noted that the wall or the
