These appliances are Safety Belt-Rigs for shaft and scaffold workers; CAGE ARRESTERS; DETACH HOOKS; ROPE CAPPLES; GUIDE TENSION GEARS, etc. These are Simple, Practical and Commercially cheap. These appliances are recommended only to firms or officials who decide to risk the trifling cost of “proper appliances for ensuring safety ” (Rule 38) rather than allow their men, cages, and the firm’s bankbook to be without “ proper appliances for ensuring safety ” in the shaft. As users find them highly profitable tools their adoption is a Good Commercial Proposition MERELY — safety being an extra incidental. People give up talking about “safety” and prove their desires by adoption of things. All goods supplied on approval. Details, A. HANLEY, 21, Alpha Road, Bristol. ""WIRE ROPES t YOU SHOULD GO TO GEO.
