If your wife attends to the cooking, she will get a vacation every day, when formerly she was a slave. A “Quick Meal’’ Stove will save her more work and steps than any hired girl she ever had. The “Quick Meal” Stove will cook a meal in less time than it takes a coal Ore to start, and ft will do it without raking or shaking, without soot or smoke, without dirt or ashes— but quicker, better, cleaner and with less
