The perforated side grate seen above holds a 

 removable, metal, asbestos°backed fire shell, 

 preventing burning the tin off the outer case, 

 and deflects the air at right angles, preventing 

 back draft to the valveiess bellows. The air, 

 passing to the back and over the top, cools and 

 expels the smoke, fanning the burning fuel at 

 top or side till all consumed, giving cool smoke 

 for hours from one filling. It can't clog. No 

 top-heavy cap to choke with soot : no valve to 

 fail ; no holes shedding sparks or hot ashes. 



Four years' sales prove its success beyond a 

 doubt, expensive dies making it uniformly per= 

 feet as possible to devise. We confidently guar> 

 antee full satisfaction or refund the price. 



Price, $1 .00 ; 3 for $2.50 ; by mail, add 25c. each
