A Wonderful Stove. The Keystone Hardware Company has just recoived a car load of tbe cele brated Coles Original Hot Blast Slack Burners.

Tho second year tholr salos amounted to 35 stoves and last year they sold 104, the largost number of Btoves ol one kind ever sold in a slnglo season by one store In Jefferson county. Tho secrot of this great demand lies principally in the merits of the stove. They work so satisfactorily that they are praised whorever used, so that the stove virtu ally advertises Itself.
