THE ORIGINAI. "PERFECT CMNCHIITG" HOSE COUPLING— 
All brass— self-fastening. Slip it in the hose and hamnier 
down— that's all. For cut hose— as smooth and more durable 
than a factory inserted coupling. A self-fastening coupling 
that does not require 
extra bands, bolts or 
wires. It adjusts itself 
to any thickness or 
hose. A fixed hold — it 
will not pull off. It can- 
not turn within the 
hose, a great gain over 
other couplings. A 
smooth joint with no 
projecting parts. A 
_ perfect joint that can- 
not leak. Kequires one tool— a hammer. The fln^ger ends 
come down directly behind the head, buckling the hose oyer 
u"" head and clamping it tight against the body of the ub3, 
either a direct pull, or heavy water pressure tends to set the 
Cdm^re solidly into the -bber-the^hard^ei- the^pressur^^ 
makes the same joint 
with the hose as tie
