CLEAR AHEAD! 



WE LEAD IX SMOKEBS! 



Our new invention of a 



SOUBLE BLAST 



Smoker is pronounced the finest improvement ever 

 made on smokers. No more sparks or ashes in the 

 hive. Doolittle says : "The arrangement to change 

 the draft so as to make it a cold-blast, after the fire 

 is kindled, places it ahead of any smoker in the mar- 

 ket by a long way." So say all who see and test it. 



Don't fail to see an illustration and description of 

 it. Prices— Large. 2M» inch tube, $1.50 ; medium, 2 inch 

 tube, $1.25 ; small. \% inch tube, without double- 

 blast attachment, 75 cents. Dust box and extra noz- 

 zle with large size, 25 cents extra. 



By mail, 85 cents extra each.
