ZBICrW TO* TTSIE3 IT. The'general rule to be always observed is this : Take the quickest and surest method possible to break Ihe Grenades and scatter the contente^into the fire. If the fire covers a hard "flat surface, like i SfuTwalls or lioor of "a room, throw tne Grenades faard enough to break them and scatter their contents into the fire. If the fire can be approached close enough to do so, take a Grenade in each hand by the neck, and with right hand Grenade knock the from the left hand, scattering the contents of both into the fire* Should a fire occur among soft substances like drapery, a pile of rags, 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. Theee general directions will enable any OLe to maeter a nre of even large extent with these Grenades, by exercising a little common sense. N.B.— lt is the gas generated that extinguishes fire* Frequently tests are made by purchasers to satisfy thsf oWfi curiosity, by endeavouring to extinguish a huge open-air bonfire with one Grenade. We dojoot claim to extinguish bon* i fires, built upon the ground, with one or two Grenades* A little reflection will make it apparent to any one that when broken upon such fires the largest p*art of the extinguishing' gas is oarried upward and away from the fire 1 by the strong draft. Hence all this class of fires require a larger number of Grenades broken at the base of the -fite to extinguish it. . Nine out of ten actual fires are on surfaces bo exposed that they can be readily reached by the gas. 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* i "Wo do not olaim to be able to control fires that, may occur in large bodies df oil, varnishes, etc., in tanks or barrels, unlesß taken at the immediate outset, aa these 1 articles when subjected to heat are rapidly cou verted inco highly inflammable gases. Hence, efvefti when such fires are to all outward appearances extinguished Jbythe Grenades, a sufficient dsgree of heat might still exist to cause spontaneous re-ignition after the fire-extingnishing gas has expended its force. . .
