HODGSON & Co's. G-AS COOKING STOVES. (STOCK'S PATENT.)
IMPORTANT NOTICE.' The Greatest Wonder ofthe Day is how Messrs. HODGSON & Co. canr Manufacture and Sell 'the Most Economical and Perfect Ias Cooking Stove ever shown to the Public.
'III I It II I ' I III
IMPORTANT NOTICE. The £4 1 O -`Stove is capable of Cook ing a Dinriner for 28 persons at a cost of 6id., with4as little trouble as you can Cook a Dinner for 2 persons by the ordinary Colonial Oven or Range.
T HE fact is owing to the enormous demand for their Stoves, and the extensive • appliances for the manufacture of the same, it being capable of cooking a dinner equal to anything that was ever laid on a table, and for browning Pastry it excels any. thing they have yet seen, without the aid of a reflector or any other artificial means so commonly in use with other Stoves, thereby doing away with a deal of labor. The number of Testimonials continually pouring in, warrant 1lessrs. HODGSON & Co. in bringing the above Facts more prominently before the Public. The Public are invited to call at the Manufactory, 154 Smith Street, and see the Stoves in operation at all hours between 8 a.m. and 0 p.m. We also beg to call the attention of the Public to our large and varied Stock of Family and Builders' Iron. mongery, which we are selling at a considerable reduction on the Melbourne Prices. We have a very cheap line in Register 'Grates, ranging from 22s. Od.; also, a great variety of Iron Bedsteads at very Low Prices. An extensive assortment of Birdcages, and all other Wire-work manufactured on the premises, wholesale and retail. FURNISHING IRONMONGER. SJAMES EVANS, Corner BRUNSWICK and WESTGARTH STS., FITZROY.. A large assortment of Cheap Register Stoves and Ovens, and Builders' Materials. F. VALLIS & SONS' IMPROVED PATENT GAS COOKING APPARATUS. The only Gas.e, Stove by which Joints and Poultry can be roasted as before an open coal fire.
.Advcantages. 7.-A hot-plate fitted with patent air and gas burners, ranged for Boiling, Stewing, or Frying.

1.-An open roaster. . 4.-No confined vapour. 2.-Free from all contact with Gas 5.-A regular diffused heat. 3.-A well-ventilated oven. 6.-A broiler free from smoke,
These stoves are constructed specially to moot the requirements of domestic economy. Economical and inexpensive cooking is obtained by the simple method of utilizing every particle of heat derived from the gas. Departing from the old system of gas cooking, which was open to many grave objeo. tions, the gaa.burner is placed above the joint, and not under; over this burner is fixed a radiating metal plate to reflect the boat; the same burner being above the joint and beneath the oven answers both for the purpose of roasting and baking at the same time. By another simple contrivance of surrounding the oven with a ease or jacket, the heat is thereby increased, the combustion is rendered complete, and also serves another Im. portant purpose in causing a regular distribution of heat all over the oven. The most limited experience proves that in all the stoves now in use, the oven is always hottest in that part nearest the fire, consequently it is a common occurrence for a joint in an ordinary oven to be raw in one part, and burnt in another. This is prevented by the hot air surrounding the oven. ''llhose stoves are so arranged that a family dinner can be cooked without the aid of any other appliance. 'The various processes of roasting,haking, boiling, grilling, or toasting, can all be carried on, and each process can he regulated to greatest nicety by the adjustments with which onch stove is fitted. Thoes stoves have been submitted to every possible test, and can he therefore, con fidentlyrecommonded as doing all the work of a kitchen range in atnore leanly, economic, certain, and ollleient manner, and no one unless proviocaly informed would have the least idea that the joints roasted by these reflecting O(s Stoves were not cooked before a coal flro, Manufnetured by ' Otter .

IN Richmond a short time ago, I A man appeared as if in woo j lie first turned right and then turned left, As if he wore of sense bereft. Still to and fro, with weary feet, ioe wandered on from street to street, 'Till crowds to gathor had begun Expecting they would see some fun. Just then a figure dressed in blue, With aspect stern came full in view, And in a voice seronely grand Thle poor man's business did demand. " Ah I kind policeman," answered Jacky," "I can't buy any good tobaucy, In Bridge road and other streets too I've tried in vain-what must I do? " ' "If that's all," cried Sir Itobuit, "attend, In Simpson's road, , ear Park street end, At the ' Live and lot live' shop you'll be Where's the best tobacco you can see, Cigars too, of choicest brands in store And judges who sample them come for more And' beautiful moorsechaums, briars and pouches, Of qualities which the vendor vouches, Will satisfy all who buy them. No more at present has Bobby to say Save this-just visit him once in a way, And do him the favor to try 'em, And now good follow you'll playo move on,' lie thanked Sir l?tbert, and was gone TO KENNEDY'S OLD ORIGINAL VICTORIA HAIR CUTTING AND SHAVING SALOON, 58 Simpson's Road, Richmond.
