At no time has tho housewife had such an opportunity of getting the finest and beat stove or range made at lees price than she has had to pay for an inferior one. Wo have a largo lot of Charter Oak stoves and ranges that must be sold out, and we sell them at actual cost. TQierc Is no one who does not concede that the Wire Gauze Door Charter Oak Is the best. Tho shrinkage of meats roasted in a close oven is from 35 to 40 per cent. All meats contain 75 per cent, of water and only 25 per cent of solid matter and the loss that Is made In the roasting is mado In the evaporation of tho Lilccs—which is tho vital part of the meat. A ten-pound sirloin, medium or well done, if roasted in a solid oven door stove will be reduced to six pounds and four ounces of roasted meat, showing a loss of three pounds' and twelve ounces of Juice. While the loss is 37% per cent, of tho total weight It shows the enormous loss of DO per cent, of the Juices. When a Charter Oak Wire Gauze Door Stove or Range Is used In roasting a sirloin, medium or well done, it will be reduced to nine pounds and eight ounces of roasted meat, showing a loss of only eight ounces of Juice. While this loss is 6 per cent of the weight, It Bhows the yery small loss of but 7 per cent, of Juice. "The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world;" also the poclcetbook. The wife and mother Is consulted about fhe buying In every family. This Is as Jt should be, for no one takes such a wise, unselfish interest In everything connected with the house. The choice of the cooking stove or range certainly should be left f to her, and in every case where a. woman is familiar with the Charter Oak she se lects it, because she knows it will do perfect work and effect a saving In time, la bor and fuel, and will outlast any others. Furnish your cook with a Charter Oak and you will prevent any excuse for a late meal or a poorly cooked meal. Read tho following dialogue between the lady of the house and her cook: Lady of the House—Do you still Uko our Charter Oak as well as when we first cot It? Aunt Caroline—Oh, every bit and grain as well, ma’am. Lady o? the House—I am expecting some friends to visit us during the Dlxls Fair and I want you to do your very best cooking. i Aunt Caroline—Indeed I will, ma'am. There’s no trouble to cook nlco with that stove The Wire Gauze Oven Doore makes It so much easier than stoves I have been use to, and I have so much mors time to make every tiling Just right. Just look at dat roll. Do Boss his self will be all smiles when he Jumps off de eleeln- trlsh car and gets a whiff of It. You know he loves them better than anything any how I never have had luck with bread, biscuits and cake now. Lady of the House-Why, how do you explain it? Aunt Caroline—Well, ma'am. I don't have to watch every thing so close for fear It will burn up. You know how careful you have to be with a baked custard: it Is so apt to burn on top before It Is baked through. The Charter Oak bakes It per- fectly without any danger of burning. And then In roasting a turkey I don’t have to keep on basting It every five minutes. It roasts perfectly brown without It nnd without drying it up llko tight ovens do. And you know how crisp my biscuits Is without being hard and tough. You and de boss always praised my biscuits and rolls, but If It wasn't for tho Wire Gauze Oven Door I knows they wouldn't be near as nice. I hope I'll never have to cook anywhere where they haven't got a Charter Oak Stove. Yes, ma'am, let your kinfolks come on and I’ll keep them busy while dey are at your table, and when they go down to tho Dixon’s Fair they won't hab to bo hunting up dom boofs what I hear all the chilluns talk eo much ^Besides tho Charter Oak we havo a great many different kinds of stoves which come cheaper than the Charter Oak.
