ECOW TO USE IT. The general rule to be always observed is this ! Take the quickest and surest method possible to break the Grenades and scatter the contents into the firp. If the fire covers a hard flat surface, like the walls or floor of a room, throw the Gren.des hard enough to break them And scatter their contents into the fire. If the fire can be approached cUwe enough to do so, take a Grenade in each hand by the neo-k, and with right hand Grenade knock the from the left hand, scattering the contents of both into the lire. Should a fire occur among soft substances like drapery, a pilo of ra^s, hay, or shavings, where they cannot be approached to break the Grenades into the flame, break the Grenades into a dish and dash the contents upon the fire. These genoral directions will enable any one to master a fire of even large extent with these Grenades, by exercising a little common sense. Niß. — It is the gas generated that extinguishes fire. Frequently tesis are made by purchasers~to siti-fy their own curiosity, by endeavouring to extinguish a huge open-air bonfire with one Grenale. We do not claim to extinguish bonfires, built upon the ground, with one or two Gren i lea. A little reflection will make it apparent to any one that when broken upon such fiies the largest part of the extinguishing gas is carried upward and away from the fire by the strong draft. Hence ull this class of fires require a larger number of Grenades broken at the base of the five to extinguish it. Nine out of ten actual fires are on surfaces so exposed th.it they can be readily reached by the gaa. Where the wall of a room is on fire, break the Grenades into the fire as near the base as possible and the gas will be carried upward, and cover a larger area of flame. We do not claim to be able to control fires that may occur in large bodies of oil, varnishes, etc., in tanks or barrels, unless taken at the immediate outset, as these articles when subjected to heat are rapidly converted into highly inflammable gases. Hence, even when such fires are to all outward appearances extinguished by the Grenades, a sufficient d«gree of heat might still exist to cause spontaneous re-ignition after the fire-extinguishing gas has expended its force. Do not expect too much of one Grenade 1 Use enough at the beginning to do the work promptly and completely. They are so cheap that you can afford to use them unsparingly. :o:- — The great desideratum id Something that is SIMPLE, SURE, ALWAYS READY; that will not get out of repair, and that at the same time can be effectively used by anyone who happens to be near when the fire breaks out. All these requirements are fully met by the HARDEN " STAR" HAND GRENADE FIRE EXTINGUISHER, which has already achieved in both Amerioa and Europe a great reputation, and has been the means of saving thousands of pounds. THEIR PRINCIPAL FEATURES ARE :— They are small and convenient for handling, can be hung up around every floor of your dwelling-house, office, warehouse, or stables, accessible at an instant's notice. They are always ready for immediate Use ; any man, woman, or child can use them efficiently. They will not deteriorate with age, and will never get out of order, there being no explosive caps and fuses, as in other Grenades. They prevent serious damage by water, operate instantaneously, and are harmless to persons or clothing of any kind. i It is cheap and convenient. There is no poisonous vapour if it ia broken accidentally.
