Thorn & Hunkins Lime and Cement Co , St. Louis, Mo. I mm m m % I NORRIS PATENT SASH PULLEY. FOR RIBBON, ROPE OR CHAIN. Strongest and Handsomest Pulley lade. OUR PULLEYS, you can readily see, a/'e the only Pulleys made that do not depend upon the screws to hold them in the frame. The pin for the wheel is back of the bevel or lower end of the Pulley, which causes the weight of both sash and weights to pull back—therefore, the more weight the more firmly the Pulley imbeds itself in the frame. Our Pulleys are made in over 1600 different qualities. They are made with gun metal pins, phosphor bronze pins, steel pins, bronze metal face, bronze metal wheel, bronze metal face and wheel. We make a special groove for chain, which causes the chain to wea twice as long. We also make a special groove for ribbon. Our self-lubricating Pulleys, if used a life-time, will always b» anti-filctiovi. We make a specialty of finishing our Pulleys to match the new finish of hardware now so extensively used, such as old statuary bronze, electro bronze and old copper bronze. We make our Pulleys plain or engraved face, and of bronze metal, or any finish desired. Architects, and builders generally, concede the Norris Pulley to be the best Pulley In the world. There are many millions in use. They have been and are used in the finest building* in the country. All our Pulleys are numbered, so please order by number, as the number designate* size and quality. Architects wishing a catalogue and samples will please write us, and we will send same free of cost. Norris Pulley can be had of any hardware house in the country, or address C.

The finish given even the lowest priced ones is equal to that given the finest furniture. Nothing but best quality French bevel plate mirrors used. THE ALDINE FIRE EE ACE is constructed with especial reference to burning hard coal ; will burn any kind of fuel with equal economy. When provided with a chimney flue containing good draff, set and operated as the Company direct, the Aldine Fire Place will not only furnish heat equivalent to that given by an ordinary stove but keep lire over night equally as well. Unlike other grates, its operation produces warm floors, equalized temperature and sanitary conditions not to be had through the use of other principles. There are no drafts, nor the hot f ces and cold backs, filth and extravagant consumption of fuel so characteristic of others. Th« Aldine Fire-Place is the only grate sold under positive guarantee of claims made for it. It is no new and untried thing. On the contrary is in extensive use throughout the United States and in foreign countries. It is built of the best material and to last a lifetime ; weighs 500 pounds crated and boxed, and each front contains twenty square feet of handsomely finished surface. In its construction it is provided with a return draft. This principle secures slow and economical combustion of fuel. The warm air circulating principle gives a perfect circulation of warm air from floo>- to ceiling thus equal zing the temperature. It is provided with a six-inch smoke exit through which it is constantly rem iving the vitiated air from the room in which it is being operated. Out door air can- be introduced into the room through the Aldine Fire-Place if de-ired. Will heat upper rooms.
