FIRE EXTINGUISHER. ' FIRE. FIRE. FIRE. f\ mmm f± .- * THB HARDEN PATENT «.STAR' V IIMl) GJREMBE, FIRE EXTINGUISHER, THE GREAT DESIDERATUM. Indorsed by the Chiefs of Fire Departments, Fire Insurance Companies, and Business Houses of America. (PATENTED AUGUST 8, 1871, AND AUGUST 14, 1883) The original and only practical Fire Extinguishing Hand Grenade. When thrown upon or into fire, Carbonic Acid Gas is developed. Its effect is instantaneous and complete in fire quenching. No deluging of goods by water. No goods permanently spoiled. Harmless to persons or clothing. Has no explosive caps or suses. Is always ready and powerful. Cannot get out of order. It is cheap and convenient. A lady can use it easily, without fear or embarrassment. There is no poisonous yapour, if it is broken accidentally. IT is not claimed for these Fire Extinguishers that they can take the place of a Fire Department, but simply to enable ererybody to conquer incipient fires before a fire engine could reach, them, the first fire minutes at a fire being worth more than as many hours afterwards. The many practical proofs received of actual, and what threatened to be severe fires, being got under check, end extinguished completely, by these Uahben Stab Gbenapes, are sufficient guarantees of their merit, whilst their cheapness brings them within the reach of all property-holders. These Harden Star Gbenades are now to be found in the Public Institutions, Hotels, Stores, Warehouses, and Dwelling-houses of the United States Cities and Townships. They abe to be seen in the passages of Drury Lane, Th.c Savoy, Globe, and other Theatres, South Kensington Museums, International Inventions Exhibition, the Public Buildings, Hotels, and Warehouses in London, and all throughout the United Kingdom. Householders, tenants, and all property-holders should at once possess themselves of some of these Grenades, as in this country of wooden buildings, where fires seem to be a necessary evil, eteryone should be possessed of the best means for coping with the same. _ < • - FOB SALE, both Betail and Wholesale, by the undersigned only .;—T. and S.
