ocr: ISth, 1353. HARDWARE, BY SPRAGUE &, HAWKS. THE UNITED STATES, A New Patent Elevated Oven COOKING STOVE ON AN ENTIRELY ORIGINAL PRINCIPLE. In this valuable inveutlon we do awav with all the objections ever made to the elevated Oven Move. I he pipe-Hue is placeu in Iront ot the oven, in fact, forming apart of the oven itself, and by this means we are euabled to regulate the baking more perfectlv than in any other Ftove which was ever made. We have but one damper to it, which has three winjjs never liable to get out of order, and is also patented. By turning the damper one way, wc force all the heat and iiame under and up in the back of the oven, over the top, and theucc down in front, until it enters into the Hue, and passes off tho curvature in the bottom of the oven, which requires the heat to descend, and hugs the oven during the circuit. Reversing the game damper, we totally exclude the entire heat from the oven, it all passing into the flue direct, without even reaching the oven. This simple and beauti ful arrangement needs, we are certain, no further recommendation from us. The pipe being thus located, the stove can be set close to the wall or side of the room, with a small zinck or tinned board hung on the wall; the pipe being so far from the wall as not to injure it; the stove, so set, will occupy less room than ordinary square or dividing flue stoves. A number of these Stoves have been sold recent ly, and have given Entire Satisfaction ! We refer to U. C. Sqnire, J. M. Spencer, Dr. Fos dick, Mr. Rudduck, W. R. Conine, U. Michael, and twenty others in this village; and also to Mor ris of Little Prairie Ronde; J. O. Lofland, Uziel Putnam, and numerous others in the country. We have also several other patterns of Cook stoves warranted to give satisfaction. Also a gen eral assortment of II A R D W A R E 9 COMPRISING NAILS, IRON, GLASS, SASH, DOORS, HOUSE TRIMMINGS, Carpenters Tools, Foreign and Domestic Cut lery, Cross-cut Saw-Mill, and Circular Saws, Tin ware of all descriptions.

ocr: H -A. PL 3D W J JEL E , BY SPRAGUE &, HAWKS. THE TOUTED STATES, AAew Patent Elevated Oven COOKING STOVE ON AN ENTIRELY ORIGINAL PRINCIPLE. In this valuable invention we do away with all the objections ever made to the elevated Oven Stove, ine pipe-nue is piaceu in irom oi ineoven, in fact, forming a part of the oven itself, and by this means we are enabled to regulate . the baking more perfectly than in any other stove which wag ever made. We have but one damper to it, which bus three wings never liable to get out of order, and is also patented. By turning the damper one way, we force all the heat and name under and up in tfie back of the oven, over the top, and thence down in front, until it enters into the flue, and passes off the curvature in the bottom of the oven, which requires the heat to descend, and hugs the oven during the circuit. Reversing the same damper, we totally exclude the entire heat from the oven, it all passing into the flue direct, without even reaching the oven. This simple and beauti ful arrangement needs, we are certain, no further recommeudation from us. T5ie pipe being thus located, the stove can be set close to tbe wall or side of the room, with 'a small zinck or tinned board hung on the wall; the pipe being so far from uie wuu as uono injure n; me siove, so set, win occupy less room than ordinary square or dividing flue stores. - . .
