EXTINGUISHER

FOR MINES & COLLIERIES.

A Two-Minute Interview (no. 2).

Fully equipped with Fire Extinguishers, thank you,” said
the Colliery Manager to a Pyrene man.

So you have a Pyrene installation.”

Anyone would think Pyrene was the only Extinguisher
in the market ! ”

There are other Extinguishers, and good ones too ! But
no Colliery is safe without Pyrene.”

How do you make that out ? ”

Your Fire Risks are peculiar. These and the conditions
under which an outbreak may occur demand special con-

efficient on all kinds of incipient fires—even those involving
highly inflammable substances which water won’t touch. It
is also a non-conductor of Electricity, and will extinguish
Electrical fires without damage to your apparatus or

Supposing a fire started somewhere in the pit. How can a
man carry one quickly through the narrow, low passages he
may have to traverse ? And, even when he reaches the
outbreak, there is always the possibility that the machine
will fail to act. There is no such risk with Pyrene—it is
ABSOLUTELY RELIABLE. Moreover, 1 could put a
Pyrene in each of my jacket pockets, and one under each
arm and proceed to the outbreak at top speed and have
FOUR POWERFUL FIRE EXTINGUISHERS ready
for instant use, each of which has an extinguishing capacity
equal to that of a machine many times its weight and size.

EXTINGUISHERS NOW IN USE.
