HOUSEHOLD COMFORT AND ECONOMY.
In our advertising columns to-day. there is an open letter to the Mistress of every household, hearing on the comfort and economy to ho derived by using gas fires in the house. Ibis is the time of the year—cold and damp —when lives are necessary, and a gas fire in the rooms is certainly a comfort, and a great economy in work and expense contrasted with the dusty, grimmv always-stoking coal fire. Gas fires need not he lit till required, and they can he turned out the moment they are not required. There- is no necessity to come back in .the morning, and spend half an hour of precious time clearing no the overnight mess of a coal fire, and" laying the fire for the next occasion. The gas is there always, ready at hand to do its heating service. ... For the household, a gas fire is the housewife’s best friend whether for cooking, heating or boiling. It is a great labour-saver ; a first class convenience, and a safe and ready comforter on bleak cold days or nights. For the sick room it is mdispensible m providing real comfort.
