The Ladysmith Daily Ledger was published in Ladysmith, in the Cowichan Valley region of Vancouver Island, and ran from July 1903 to December 1906. Ladysmith developed as a residential area for the employees of a large coal mine, and, in 1904, it had a population of approximately 4000. The Ledger was published by the Ladysmith Publishing Company, which also issued the paper under two variant titles: the Daily Ledger (April to July, 1905) and the Ladysmith Ledger (September to December, 1906).

C PAIN FROM A BURN PROMPTLY RELIEVED BY CHAMBERLAIN'S PAIN BALM.' . A little child of Michael,- Strauss, of Vernon, Conn., was recently* in great pain from a burn on the hand, and as cold applications only increased the inflammation, .Mr. Straus came to Mr. James N. Niohols, a local merchant, for something to stop the pain. Mr. Nichols says' "I advised him to use Chamberlain's Pain Balm, and the first application drew out the inflamimation and gave immediate relief. I have used this liniment myself and recommend it very often for cuts, burns, strains, and. lame back, ancl have never known it to disappoint." For sale by Ladysmith Pharmacy. Express Ligfct Teaming.

For burning coal it is fitted with lieavV cast-iron linings, composed of five pieces���������two, af the black, one at the^lrout, ami one at each end. When any part burns'out. it can lie replaced with one piece, which can'be put in without any trouble. We use our-.successful -duplex grates, which aie heavily built, with long, strong teeth',-!' OVEN Like the cooking surface, the oven is intended to do a lot of woik, and to this end is, made very large. It is also intended t,o do good work-with as-little fuel as possjb'le. The side next to the fire-box has a doilblc layer of steel, lined with asbestos, which, with the heavy cast.black linings in the fire-jb-ox, prevents .any possibility of i I'burning through. The'top is covered with a heavy coat' of asbestos, which 1 l -makes the heat of the oven uniform, lop-and bottom. Ventilation draws in fresh air and discharges the baking and roasting fumes into the * *.' smoke flue. The bottom is extra heavy and so Hraccd that it cannot warp! - The drop oven door when down forms a convenient shelf on which to draw out heavy pans. ��������� BODY CONSTRUCIION ... - -> The outer body is made of heavy sheet steel, ���������mounted and stienigth- ened'Vby cast parts. All'joints are airtight, stove cement and' as-bes- tosvbcing used generously and .with groat cale to produce this result. The" inner body! is also constructed with heavy sheet steel, and'is lined -with asbestos and stove cement. ���������"���������.'. FLUES The flues "arc broad and deep and encircle tho entile over, so that r* *��������� - * i alUthe heat froin the firc-fep-x is foiced around the whole over befoie es- - "V> ' ^ ��������� t , caping into the smoke pipe. The flues are too deep to be clogged by the;soot from soft coal, which can be" used , with .perfect satisfaction. A clean-out is placed just below the oven dosor, so that the flues can al-| 7,;; i. - ^ i - - - Way's be-ikept clean and open. ' ���������- '' ' Canada's Bfest Steel Range Value Cut shows range Square with High Closet, made with or without reservoir, high shelf, high closet, or with any combination of tliess pails.' If you heed a range be sure to see the <( Kootenay" at your dealer's, or write direct to our nearest office. COOKING SURFACE ��������� The top of the "Kootenay" is constructed to stand hot fires and do a lot of work. It is made in four pieces, to permit of expansion from the heat and contraction without cracking or warping. ' The lids and covers arc extra heavy and iwill stand more burning and Wa'iiging. without breaking than a dozen ranges .will ever get. The range is made in two sizes with four holes and three sizes with six holes. The center pieces arc held iu place by cast supports screwed firmly'' to an iron strip on the top of the.over extending from thc fire-pot to the opposite side of the oven. WOOD GRATES The wood grate is our popular' revolving grate, which is a per fact worker. When the coal lining's sic taken out to burn wood, the "Kootenay" will take a 24 and 34 _n.cli stick. The "Kootenay". is always shipped for coal only, unless otherwise ordered. *- Wood linings are extra. Do not overlook this when ordering'. RESERVOIR j The reservoir supplied with,'the."Kootenay" is made of heavy copper and is well put together,, with' no rough edges or corners to collect dirt. It is rigidly supported on a cast frame amLJits flush with ��������� ihe top of -the range, so that'it 'does not interfere m-illi the cooking suiface. The water is .heated hy the heat being forced under the" reser- ,voir by a damper, although",'it, will .heat rapidly by radiation without the use of the damper. ' The large, roomy feed,pouch makes it easy to feed thc ���������'���������Kootenay"- wiLhout .taking off the lids. ' FINISH In appearance the "Kootenay" has 'mo superior. The rich nickel diess, combined with the highly'polished steel, makes it- handsome enough for any'kitchen., . , | ' ' ��������� ; The suiface-parts are finished with a smooth, rich, black iron, which' required very little polishing and always looks nice.
