Bin g ham Brass Smokers 



Made of sheet brass, which does not rust or burn out ; should last 

 a lifetime. You need one, but they cost 25 cts. more than tin of the 

 same size. The little open cut shows our brass hinge put on the 

 three larger sizes. No wonder Bingham's 4-inch smoke-engine 

 goes without pufl&ng, and does not drop inky drops. The perforated 

 steel fire-grate has 381 holes to air the fuel and support the fire. 



Heavy tin smoke-engine, 4-inch stove, per mail, $1.50 ; 35^-inch, 

 SI. 10; 3-inch, 81.00; 2J4-inch, 90c; 2-inch, 6.5c. Bingham smokers are 

 the originals, and have all the improvements, and have been the 

 standard of excellence for 22 3'ears. Only three larger ones brass.
