The dimensions of these Stoves are as follows: SINGLE OVEN STOVE Top surface contains six 10-lnoh holes, with ample room between, and one oven 23 x 24x 19. Fire box takes 28-lucb wood. DOUBLE OVEN STOVE The Double Oven has a top surface containing twelve 10-inch pot boles, with two ovens, each 28 x 24 x 19. One fire-box of suitable size for area to be heated. Below will be found Testimonials from some of the leading Lumbermen, who have used my Wrought Iron Cook Stoves since I commenced manufacturing them. They are the names of gentlemen who are welt known and rellab'e, and will carry more weight than any recommendation of my own could do. Tbe Best Stove I have ever Used. Peterborough, May 31, 1880. Adah Hall, Esq., Peterborough. Dear Sir,—I have used vour Wrought Iron Cookinp Stove in our lumber- ing operations since its introduction here, and have no hesitation in saying that I prefer it to any other. For durability, economy and efficiency, where a large number of men are employed, it is the best stove I have ever used. You can, with confidence, offer it to hotels, boarding houses and lumbermen. Yours truly, THOS. GEO. HAZLITT. Tbe Stove for Lumbermen. Peterborough, June 1st 1880. Adam Hall, Esq., Peterborough. My Dear Sir,—We have used your Wrought Iron Cooking Stoveand find it is very satisfactory for lumber operations, especially so on drives. We can recommend it highly. Yours truly, J M. IRWIN In addition to the above I can refer you to the following lumber firms who use my Wrought Iron Range exclusively in their camps :— THE GEORGIAN BAY LUMBER CO Waubaushene THE LONGFORD LUMBER CO Longford Mills MESSRS. GILMOUR & CO Trtnton and Ottawa MESSRS. RATH BUN & CO Deseronto THE MUSKOKA LUMBER CO Gravenhurst EVERY STOVE GUARANTEED.

Henderson, President; Norman Hekdersoi, Vice-President; Chas. H. Walters, SecTreas. Dealers in, and manufacturers of, Dimension and Bridge Timber, Sawq Lumber, Clapboards, Shingles and Lath. Packing Cases and Boxes a Specialty. OFFICE, MILLS AND YARDS : 342 to 396 William Street, MONTREAL, and at ROXTON FALLS, P. Q. from the Tees show every prospect of continuous improvement. As yet, however, there has been no increase in the demand for home consump- tion, and the iron works have no more than a normal quantity of orders on hand. Until the home trade improves, the present firm tone in the pig iron market cannot be regarded with entire confidence. Thursday was a very unfavorable day for a sale, the wet literally coming down in bucket- fuls, and those who had not previously taken a trip down to the docks to inspect the parcels they contemplated buying would have to rely entirely on the brokers' sale report. The seats were fairly well occupied, and from the appear- ance of the room pretty active proceedings might have been expected. The fact was, how- ever, that the wet, which continued throughout the day drove many into the saleroom who would otherwise have patronized the ap- proaches. Prices throughout were not very tiptop, but the major portion of the goods submitted with- out reserve had nothing specially choice about them. For the pine boards ex Baumwall there was some good bidding though the prices real- ized read low. The classification of the 1st Ottawa pine was not very strict, and they fetched about 2nd quality price. For the Mon- treal pine ex Suffolk the competition was not over brisk. The first lot of this parcel some 2x12 to 16 in. 2nd bright, hung at £9 10s., advancing by slow degrees to £11, at which they dwelt for some time, being eventually knocked down at this price. The 2x10 also ex- perienced similar treatment, but fell at 5s., on the opening bid, the room evidently not Leing very anxious about them. The battens from this port were very un- •vorably treatod ; 2nd bright pine of any dimensions must be considered extraordinaiily cheap under £9 if the quality is anything like the usual mill assorting. Some there were who inclined to the idea that the elections, from the quiet way they are now conducted would have no influence on trade one way or the other, but we do not share that view. As far as the indications in the saleroom went, they pointed to a very serious influence being exercised by the political con- test now going on, and considerable excitement was engendered by tho cheering from the adja^ cent Baltic which rang through the building at intervals as the tape brought intelligence of the result of the metropolitan elections. 8HILOH'8 COUGH and Consumption Cure Is sold by us on a guarantee.
