FOREST AND STREAM. 
[April 16, 1910. 
A Storekeeper Says: 
“ A lady came into my store lately and said : 
‘“I have been using a New Perfection Oil Cook-Stove all winter 
in my apartment. I want one now for my summer home. I think 
these oil stoves are wonderful. If only women knew what a 
comfort they are, they would all have 
one. I spoke about my stove to a lot 
of my friends, and they were aston¬ 
ished. They thought that there was 
smell and smoke from an oil stove, and 
that it heated a room just like any other 
stove. I told them of my experience, 
and one after another they got one, and 
now, not one of them would give hers 
up for five times its cost.’ ” 
The lady who said this had thought 
an oil stove was all right for quickly 
heating milk for a baby, or boiling a 
kettle of water, or to make coffee 
quickly in the morning, but she never 
dreamed of using it for difficult or 
heavy cooking. Now—she knows. 
Do you really appreciate what a New 
Perfection Oil Cook-Stove means to you ? No 
more coal to carry, no more coming to the 
dinner table so tired out that you can’t eat. 
Just light a Perfection Stove and immediately 
the heat from an intense blue flame shoots 
up to the bottom of pot, kettle or oven. But 
the room isn’t heated. There is no smoke, no 
smell, no outside heat, no drudgery in the 
kitchen where one of these stoves is used.

and attractive. Made with 1, 2 and 3 burners; the 2 and 3-burner stoves 
can be had with or without Cabinet.
