We have had many years experience in investigating the working of steam boiler-plants and in designing schemes of reorganisation to obtain maximum efficiency Sidings Contracted for Complete We have just published in Engineering the results of the working of 250 typical steam boiler-plants in Great Britain, representing 8 years con- tinuous working, and we shall be very pleased to send free of charge. you a copy average nett 602 for all MANUFACTURERS of SWITCHES Chairs, Spikes, Fish Plates, Iron FISH PLATES and BOLTS for various sections and CROSSINGS, and Steel Castings. of Rail kept in Stock. These results show an working efficiency of industries, and in the case of collieries 502. We are able to reorganise a boiler-plant to run on 70—752 efficiency under average condi- tions, representing a saving on colliery boiler-plants of — say 302. We shill be glad to explain our proposition personally or by letter, and we are prepared to visit your Colliery free of charge and give you our opinion of the working of your boiler-plant.

MERRY - XMAS to the 2,000 Milling Finns who have allowed me the privilege of devising and supplying things to help them in their task of getting Profit with FULLEST Safety at their shaft pits. Also to the thousands of shaftmen who use the Hanley Safety Rigs. Mind, I recognise that using a Rig is sometimes awkward, and never pleasant except at the danger moment. Still, a Hanley Rig is the only proper form of real sympathy I could give my own shaftmen, and its usage at risky jobs is a proof that you Value your Life and your duty to the firm. Tolerate its use—it’s your life that is at stake. To those who have not adopted HANLEY’S SAFETY RIGS I would say, DO SO NOW, as, in my little time to spare, I want to persuade firms out of the habit of using that most Dangerous, Life- and Profit-wasting tool the fatal Unguarded Cage and to use Exactly Safe Cages, fitted with HANLEY’S CAGE ARRESTERS.
