202 Aneroid Barometers, in Ornamental Mountings. 

 Since the publication of the early editions of our Illus- 

 trated Catalogue we have introduced the Aneroid for use 

 as a household Barometer, mounting it in variously 

 designed ornamental frames, suited either for the 

 Mantel Shelf or for Suspension in the Hall or Library. 

 Our engravings exhibit a few of the series we have had 

 specially designed to suit these instruments. 



One very important advantage of the Aneroid 

 movement thus mounted is that there is very little fear 

 of damage in transport ; therefore these Barometers 

 can be safely sent abroad to places where hitherto it 

 has been almost impossible to send a mercurial instru- 

 ment with safety; for beyond careful packing (the 

 Aneroid does not want any screwing up or making 



portable) nothing is required but to unpack the instrument and hang it up, and it 



will at once be in action, and show the atmospheric pressure at the place where 



suspended. 



For the saloons of Sea-going Vessels and Yachts, these Aneroid Barometers 



are admirably adapted, being convenently small in size, and very accurate. 



New patterns are being constantly added to our stock, and we would observe 



that many of our Dial . Barometer Frames can be mounted with Aneroid 



Barometers instead of Mercurial Tubes.
