She has'always taken a prominent part

Although this range may have

X' -". i v J I .stores in the citv, and therefore
C v - --" j L lMs not appeal to you, us a sub-
ject of special attraction. We
assure you that it is decidedly
different from ail others in construction, containing those particular
features which make it the best Uange ever offered to the user. The
firebox is so'constructed that the heat will radiate into the oven at the
same moment a fire is started. Consequently, soon as the fire has at
tained the necessary 2 0 degrees of heat, the oven also will register the
same temperature; therefore, it is ready to bake. The results of this
direct action will have a telling effect on the coal pile, saving nearly
half the fuel used in ordinary stoves. The fire back lining is guaranteed
for 5 years use. The front section of the top can be suspended, making
a convenient place for broiling or toasting. A special cover or lid 'on top
is arranged for cooking oat meal, milk. rice, etc., without fear of scorch
ing. The body is made up of three distinct walls, which retain all heat
ir.to the stove. If you will call at my store and examine this Range, you
will admit thre is no other to equal it at pi ices that will meet
your approval. I have some special bargains in express wagons, childs
and Misses Rockers, bookcases.
