“Legislative The House of Roseiahiy is nearly through supply, and the Legislature will probably rise on Thursday.

The obstructive tactics of the Opposition are supposed to indicate that they desire to give time so that Mr. John A. Matheson may be able to take his seat, and on the last day of the session having done nothing draw his full sessionai allowance from the public purse of the people. Honest, pat- riotic, public spirited Opposition !

One of the most vigorous speeches of the session was delivered yesterday by the Com- missioner of Publie Words ; and it is sigm- ficent that, though his comparisons must have been most odious to them, the Oppost- tion made no reply. For once, they were silenced !

TESTIMONIALS.

The following are a few testimonials from a list of several hundred :—

| |

The capacity of the Stove is surprising. | With a No, 8 Stuve we cooked for a party of | seven, giving them beeited oysters, steak, |

oes lamb chops, and baked biscuit, in 45 minutes, |

at a cost for gas of 44 cents. On another occasion we gave a dinner in courses of twenty Broiled shad, | beef steak, roast quarter of lamb, baked biscuit | and coffee; heating the water for washing the | dishes tour times, re-setting the table three | times. All was as plished in one hour and | forty minutes, at 2. «pense for gas of eleven | This work was all done on one No. 8 | tove. All were enthusiastic over the manner | in Which the oysters, tish and meats were cooked ; none had experienced any so teuder, | and of such full flavor be fore. We| @yvreat success, and most |

complete in all its parts and arrangements.

A. C. Woon, Supt. I bought one of your No, 12 Gas Cooking toves last Scptember, for use in my restau- rant, and have used it ever since for baking,

I can say for it that it is always ready and

no surplus heat, a8 we are using only that portion that we need, and as soon as the article is cooked the gas is extinguished and there is no waste I think it will do the same amount of work at less cost than coa), even at the high price of gas. It takes much less room than a coal range that would do the same work. I am perfectly satisfied with it aad would not be without one for double the price,

3. HARKER.

The Gas Stove you sent me, I am glad to say has proved an entire suceess. if my testimony is of any value to you, you | are at liberty to use it. The decrease in the |

| coal bill more than offsets the increase in the | | gas ditto.

The cooking is excellent and uni- torm in its operation.

No dirt or dust irritates the careful house- and Mrs. 8. describes it as a * real treasure.”

In my humble opinion, any man who really wants to add to the number of allotted days of bis better-half, had better invest in a Gas Stove and save her worry, and himself ex- pense.

W.

We are perfectly delighted with our Gas Stove. It gives entire satisfaction in every respect.

pleasure that I bear testimony to its genuine merits. :
