FireIess Cooker.

The principle OF tho flreless cooker,
In which the cooking having been once
started over a fame Is continued In
an insulated cabinet or box, through

Ing and roasting. In the latter case
the heater is stored In steatite radi-
ators or slabs, which quickly absorb
heat. The radiators arc heated over
flame or by electricity That II is
possible to use electricity In connec-
tion with the flreless cooker with pro-
portionately greater economy in tho
use Of fuel than in the use Of gas. oil
or coal. has, 1t Is stated, been prac-
tically demonstrated in the flreless
cookers ready for the market. The
reason why the economy is greater
with electricity Is that It is possible TO
utilize practically all the heat gener-
ated by the current. The coils are In.
troduced In the radiators. and while
the temperature is being raised tho
oven is closed to prevent tho loss of

BURLINGAME TELEGRAPHNG TYPEWRITER
is A WONDERFUL INVENTION

An invention by which typewriter
message may be transmitted hundreds
of miles and reproduced on a type
writer In almost any number OF Offices
Is the Burlingame telegraphine type
writer. now on exhibition at the Office
Of the Burlingamo Telegraph Type
writer company, at 403 D. F. Walker
building in Salt Lake City.
The most noticeable thing about the
Invention is its extreme simplicity An
ordinary typewriter OF any of the
standard types, is attached to the sys-
tenn Of electro-magnets and the mes
sage written Is transmitted over a
wire connected by means of the COM
mon telegraph ground circuit to SINH
lar machine connected with another
typewriter which produces the mes
sage exactly as written.
The mechanism consists primarily
Of a number Of small electromagnets,
operated by ordinary dry batteries
capable of producing an electromo-
tive force OF ten volts. A system of
steel bars Is connected to the keys of
the typewriter, The operation OF the
sending typewriter causes success
sion of make and break" in the cir
cult OF the sending mechanism. Only
a slight amount of electric current
transmitted over the connecting wires
Is sufficient to cause similar make
and break" in the mechanism Of the
receiving instrument which operates
the typewriter attached TO the ma
chine at the receiving end of the line
The fact that the electric current for
the operating OF the machines is all
supplied at the ends OF the line, and
that only a small electrical impulse Is
transmitted over the line wire, IS
what makes the invention valuable
and makes possible the sending OF
messages. II can be seen that by con"
Meeting practically any number OF ma
chimes with typewritcrs attached, to
the line wire, the message written at
one end of the line can be reproduced
great many times.
Not only Is the saving of telegraph
operator accomplished in this manner
by the transmitting OF the message
directly to the receiving typewriter
buj dozens OF messages in different
offices may be delivered similar TO the
operation OF several telegraph instru-
ments in different parts of tele-
graph office. or like the operation OF
party lines on telephone circuit,
A company has been organized and
a factory is now being constructed in
Syracuse. N. Y, to manufacture the
machines. The company Is capitalIz-
ed at Sl.000.000. AT the present time
