NEW IMPROVED PATENT EIGHT-FLANCE FIRE-PROOF SAFE.

0 fa only Eight-F'ange Safe in the world, and containing more improvements than ANY

SAFE made, such as :

Ist. THE PATENT INSIDE BOLT WORK, which is placiag the bolt work with the whole of the filling (six inches) between it and the outside, that is, as far from the fire and thief as it can be

2nd. THE PATENT HINGED CAP—the back plate of the door being on hinges, enabling the owner, by turning a thumbscrew, to have easy access to the lock and bolt- work. He can thus easily chanye the lock, clean, vil, and keep the bolt-work in good order,

3rd. LRON INSIDE LINING, strorger than wood, and which retains the moisture in the tilling for an indetinite time. Wood is thicker aud weaker, and after a few years absorbs the moisture and ‘requires filling over again.”

4th, FOUR-WHEEL COMBINATION LOCK®, the simplest, strongest, most etlicient and easiest to change of anv iu use.

jth. SOLID ANGLE IRON FRONTS, BACKS AND CORNERS, which prevents warping or injury to safe from falling, or falling wal!s or timbers

bth. EIGHT FLANGES—the most important improvement ever wade in lire-proof safes, providing e'ght laps, thas preventing the passage ot heat, it having to pss over twelve inches, no injury arises from this source, as in other safes containing one, two or three flanges.

THESE SAFES have stood the test of years, aud the greatest fires on this continent, and have the CHAMPION RECORD in the Boston, Chicago and Haverhill Fives, }

We are selling these safes as low as any good safe, aud are disposing of large numbers throughout the Dominion
