The Gas Stove is portable, gives perfect and imme diate control over the heat, requires but little atten tion, is always ready, keeps the kitchen and house cool," and is only alight when actually in use. The difference between the cost of cooking by Gas, and by the ordinary mode, is much greater than usual at the present time ; for while coals have lately advanced in pries 50 ter cent, Gas has bern re duced to 12s Cd per 1000. - r The following statement, which is the result of many experiments, shows therelative cost of boiling a Gallon of Water in a copper kettle by means of a recently lighted coal fire, and by a Gas Stove, and the time required in each case :— Coal used Weod Tlme Total pw toil used- cm Pl£,yed- Cost- With Fire.. 4Jibs. l-sthofld 1 hour. ljd. With Gas.. . cubic feet at 12s Cd Twenty ay per 1000. minutes. * ' Therefore, by the use op Gas, there is a saving of nearly two to one in money, and economy of wo- TniRDH in time, and the avoidance of trouble in' lighting, smoke and dust. ■'• \ A choice selection of Gas Stoves for boiling, frying, broiling, stewing, and roasting can be seen, and the above statement as to cost proved by application to E.
