* The Plain does not have the Coiled Steel Wire Handle, neither the bent Cap for throwing- tlie smoke 

 iit right angles. All the other.s have all our new improvements. 



The movable bent cap enables you to change a curved shot to a straight shot instantly, and uice t'ersa; 

 throws smoke downward without spilling ashes; adds durability and c(mvenience. and is cheaply replaced 

 If injured The wire handle is always cool for opening and closing the smoker when refilling witli fuel. 

 Sound, dry stove-wood is the best fuel for Bingham smokers. Below is a copy of a letter from the largest 

 produce!' of comb honey in the world:
