Boynton's Self-Clearing, Gas-Tight Furnace;
Hundreds of Families are suffering yearly from the evil effects of Gas-leaking Furnaces, and the many other disagrecable features found in improperly constructed heating apparatus.
In the BOYNTON GAS-TIGHT FURNACE, we claim to have gained the following great improvements over all others :-
Ist. The Boynton Gas-Tight Self-Clearing Furnace, from its peculiar constructed joints, IS PERFECTLY GAS TIGHT.
2d. It IS SELF-CLEARING.
3d. It is more durable than any other. less liable to crack or burn out, being made extra heavy in all parts exposed to wear.
Ith. It has no complicated draft dampers. Can be un- derstood by the most careless of servants.
5th. For economy of Fuel, power of Heating, and gen- eral operation. we place it AS EQUAL. if not superior to any other Furnace in the market.
