The August number of tho Delineator Is
called 'the midsummer number and presents
tho usual attractive combination of fashion,
literary and household features that l'!s
tiiiguish this publication as the woman's
favoiite.inagazlue. The lluglos Sang Truce,
a romantic war story by Francis Lyndo, is
ohainiingly appropriate at this timu. A
timely sketch on tho women of Cuba, by
Kate Coventry, throws a bright light on their
household life. The (ieorge Washington
.Memorial Association, by Carolyn Hal-tcad,
discusses the progress made toward the leal
ijition of Washington's conception of a gicut
National Cnhersity. Iu girls' interests and
01 cupittious, by Lafayette MvLaws, will be
found many entertaining and timely hints
for girls. Summer desserts, choice and varied,
homo-made ices, hot weather housekeeping,
vegetables in new guises and piovlsion for

household subjects.

That it is a success was demonstrated by our
lest made last week in full view of the public.
Considering the difficulties the test was made
under, the stove really excelled all guarantees
which accompanies a sale. This range was
shipped direct from the factory, was never
subject to even a fire, and after the first match
was applied, it was ready for baking purposes
in two hours.
Two pans of biscuits, six
dozen In all, one pan on the
bottom and the other on
the shelf, were baked
brown In less than twenty-five
minutes, and distributed among
the spectators as a sample of its
baking qualities.
The same test and results will he derived
iu cooking and roasting.
This range, "The Cinderella" is daily dis
played on the sidewalk in front of our store.
An invitation is extended to all to call nnd
examine it. Several of them have already
been sold, and only the highest words of
praise are expressed by the purchasers.
