Sterling assumes the burden OF
the hrst assembly but we hope the
large territory will become stock

have asyital part in thebuilding Of
a splendid summer school at
which our great men will be

This will be the 4th Chautaoua

In q Class By Itself.

We cannot say too much for the
Aeraame Range. As u range it is
a class by itself. 1t is the first
and only steel range that has sue
cessfully handled the hot blast
proposition.
As a demonstration Of this fact.
in a recent test, only twenty-eight
pounds of common soft coal was
required to keep a good fire in the
Aeraame 6rebox for tventy-three
hours. It is one Of the heaviest
stoves on the market, its weight
with reservoir being $50 pounds
with eighteen inch oven; with
twenty inch oven its weight 10
about SIS pounds.
The body Of the AerAame is not
unlike any other range. Il is
made Of heavy gauge Wellsville
planished steel. Oven top has
extra protection Of heavy cast iron
plates and heavy asbestos board.
In fact, wherever liable to wear or
overhead. cast iron and asbestos
are introduced. Back aue is made
from heavy cast iron and will not
rust out from dampness in the
chimney. The nickel parts are es-
pecially good and lasting, being
polished over five different wheels.
The frebox in the Aeraame is
its special feature, and is unlike
any other 6rebox ever made in
any steel range or cook stove. 1t
is practically a double 6rebox,
with hot air Aues extending round
the front and ends, these aues
supplying extra heated air to the
perforated back wall. The front
of the 6rebox is provided with a
separate hot blast or Bridge hue
which may be removed when using
hard coal or wood.
Again We say this range is in a

Lord Northcliffe Becomes Tenant OF
Dwelling Byron Knew Well.

LONDON. Feb. 4.-That Lord North
cloffe had become the tenant of Sam
uel Rogers old house at % New ST
James place is an interesting circum-
stance. Here the proprietor of the
Daily Mail will be able to receive his
friends in the very room in which Lord
Byron first met Tom Moore. 1t was
of this house which he knew well that
Byron wrote. There's not a gem. a
coin. a book thrown aside on the Chin
ney-piece. his sofa. his table, which
does not bespeak almost fastiGious ele-
gance in the possession.
What delightful house it is
wrote Lord Macauley. 1t looks out or
a green park. just at the most pleas
ant point. The furniture was selected
with a delicacy of taste quite unique
in drawing room for example, the
chimney pieces are carved by Flaxmar
into most beautiful Grecan form. A
bookcase was painted by Stolhard in
his very best manner, with groups
from Chaucer, Shakespeare and Boo
cacio. The pictures are not numerous
but every one is excellent"

When the fruit is taken into the

It Was Only 50 years Old, but He Was

LONDON, Feb. 4.-The Aldershot
News narrates curious occurrence at
Worth Camp. Aldershot due to the re-
cent removal of the war office from
Pail Mall to the new building in
Whitehall.
The officer in command of a battal-
ion quartered on the Marlborough lines
was amazed one morning to find on his
parade ground a traction engine and
several trucks. Stones, gravel and
material were deposited on the ground
and in due course of time the engine
and trucks returned with more
Going to headquarters for an ex-
PLANTATION. the commanding officer was
Informed that the instructions had
come from the war office to send the
material there. Not satisfied with this
explanation the officer pursued the
matter further, with the result that
the original requisition for the ma
terial was produced and was found to
be dated 1856.
In moving out of the old offices in
Pail Mall a clerk had found the re-
QUESTION in a pigeOnhole and seeing
that it was for hundred tons of road
material he had the order executed and
the material dumped on the only avail
able spot at North Camp.
