Here is the first really successful

Note that the f^alvanizeil drip gut-

Some Comslbrucltion Odds and Ends Worth 



Ki 



TAKE our handling of the side 

 * ventilating sash on the Iron 

 Frame house. Instead of closing it 

 down on top of a wooden sill, that 

 in spite of anything that you can 

 do, will swell causing the sash to 

 stick; we close it against the edge 

 of an angle iron. No swelling; no 

 freezing; no sagging mattes any 

 difference with its easy working. 

 Always it opens and closes without 

 sticking. 



Then another thing; instead of us- 

 ing a cypress piece between the 

 runs of sash, we use a T-bar against 

 which the sash fit on either side of 

 the metal division. 

 Xow take the post. It is guaran- 

 teed Wrought Iron secured to the 

 steel rafters by double gusset plates. 

 The galvanized angle iron eave 



Tile center door lifts out. The

 the slile poKts which tit against the 

 Kiihle rafters. 



plate is equipped with a U-shaped 

 drip gutter. Being independent of 

 tlie eave itself; the clogging objec- 

 tion of a combined eave and drip 

 L-utter is overcome. Like the eave 

 plate, the drip gutter is also gal- 

 \ anized. 



And so if we could sit down with 

 you and point out point by point: 

 (he superior points in our construc- 

 tion; you would be surprised to 

 find out in how many important 

 ways it differs so differently from 

 other constructions. 



Differences that many times over 

 make up any dilTerences in cost. 

 When you make up your mind you 

 want a house of Everlasting Last- 

 ingness; then let's get together and 

 talk things over.
