Schools, as a. rule, have been most .imperfectly warmed, no doubt because of the feediDg and attending to the ordinary Stoves, and the cost of chimney-stacks. Our Patent Gas Stove meets these difficulties as well as otheis and, so far from being considered by both teachers and scholars as a necessary evil, is regarded as & constant fiuksd—not ied-hot now, and cold as a stone in half-an-hour's time—but warm at all times alike.

A nlly that became lame from thorough-pin was also cured with afew applications of your Chemicai Essjxce, although assured by many that such wa3 impossible. .
