To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that we, VVILLIAM J.

Above the stems is a series of angular grooves.

The leg-base B is ornamented by a series of scrolls, which start from each corner, and atter leaving the same run in a substantially straight line in an inclined position toward the center, where it terminates in another scroll which depends below the highest portion of the straight line between the scrolls. Another part of the corner scroll spreads out somewhat like a fan between the main scroll and the straight-lined portion connecting the main scroll with the smaller one.

The oven-door G is provided at its upper rear corner with a flame-like ornament running along the top and partially down one side, and at its bottom are shown branches or stems starting from a smallscroll and leaf and terminating in irregularly-shaped leaves. Be-

tween these two ornaments is an ornamental panel with lettering thereon.

One of the fire-doors, D, at its upper lefthand corner is provided with a flame-like ornament very similar to that on the oven-door,

and on its opposite corner with a series of small curved stems terminating in opening buds and starting from a scroll.
