TF YOU ONLY 

 A KNEW what a 

 giiod e a V e the 

 M E T R OPOI.I- 

 TAN PATENT- 

 ED Is. you would 

 use no other. It 

 la made of cast 

 iron and will not ^ 

 rust. That part 

 of your green- 

 bouse which in 

 other construc- 

 tions is the weak- 

 est becomes the 

 strongest. Not 

 this alone, it is 

 Ice-cIearing and 

 carries all the 

 water of con- 

 densation from the inside, and it Is so 

 constructed that almost the entire end 

 of the bar Is exposed to the air, there- 

 by preventing decay. Only one screw, 

 about two inches from the end. is all 

 that is necessary to secure the bars. 

 For side stationary glass, wood headers 

 are absolutely unnecessary, thereby 

 causing no shade. Zinc glass stops are 

 not necessary — the ejive is made with 

 a lug to prevent the class from slip- 

 ping. Let your next house be built 

 with a Metropolitan l*atented Iron Wall 

 Construction. Y'ou will never regret it. 

 Our price and service are right.
