The geheral rule to be always observed is this : Take the quickest and surest faethocj possible to break the Grenades and scatter the contents wto^heji^e. If the fire covers a har^ flat surface, like the \vSlTor^ooToT~a~ro^iii , throw thfi"Greri7dfes hard enough to break then* and scatter their contents* iuto the fixe. II the fire can he approached close enough to do soj take a Gienade ih each hand by the heck, and with right hand Grenade knock thd from the left hnnrl, scattering the contents of both into the fire. Should a fird ' occur among soft substances like drapery, a pile of nigs, hay, or shavings, where they cannot be appioached to break .the Grenades into the flame, break the Gienadesinto a dish aftddasb the contents upon the fire. These general directions will enable any oi.e to master a fire of even large extend witU these Grenades, by exercising a little common sense. N .13 .-^-Itisthe' ga s fefenerate^that_ex tinguislies_fire. Frequently tests' areTnarfe by purchasers to satisfy their, owri ciiritisifcy, by endeavouring to extinguish a hn'ge open-air bonfire "frith one Grenade. We do not claim t& extinguish 1 bon^ tires, built upon the ground, wiih' one or two Grenades. A little reflection will make iti apparent tv any one thut when broken upon such iircs the largest part of the extinguishing gas is eanic.l upward an'l away from the fire by ihe strong draft.. Hence all this clasjrftf fires require a large!' number of Grenades bioktsn at the base of the fire to extinguish, it* Nine out of ten actual fiies are on surfaces to exposed that they can be readily reached by tl c gas. Wheie the wall of a room is on fiie, break -the Gi eriactes into the fiye^as near th«J base" as possible and the gas will be eairied upward, and cover a larger aiea of flanie. We do noL claim to be able to control fires that may occur in large bodies of oil* varnishes, etc., in tanks or -barrels, unles^ tal%en at^tho rmfae'diftte ontset, as these articled when subjected to heat are rapidly converted mio kignly milammable gases. Hence'; evea when f-nch fiics arc to all outwari appearances extinyaishe'l by the Grenades, a srifficienfi d^gicc of boat might still exiss to causo spunUneous re-ignition after tlie j fire-extinguishing gas has expcnried its force.

The great desideratum is something that in SIMPLE, SUBB, ALWAYfe ftEATJYi {ha's will not get out of repair, and that at the same time can be eUecfcively used by anyone - whtf happens to be near when the fire beaks on I.
