THE NATIONAL LOWERING DEVICE, Improved and Beautified, 
Our improved Device is as 
near perfection as human inge- 
nuity and skill can make it. It 
is adjustable as to length and 
width to fit and conform to any 
size grave. Has power to raise 
as well as lower. Is finished as 
well as a fine piece of furniture 
with polished oak top and ends, 
absolutely safe and easy to op- 
erate; every Device tested to 
1200 lbs. before leaving the fac- 
tory; more in actual operation 
than all other kinds combined. 
We guarantee their safety 
and perfect working in every 
particular. Theie are others, 
but we believe it is conceded that 
none compare with the Improved National. When you buy, buy the safest, handsomest and only perfect Device.

LOT DIAGRAH BOOKS. 
Every cemetery has its unmarked 
and uncared for graves that in time be- 
come difficult to locate and are the 
source of delay and inconvenience 
when it becomes necessary to remove 
a body, to make an interment near by, 
to put in a foundation for a monument 
or marker, or for many other reasons 
that frequently arise when it is neces- 
sary to know the exact location of a 
£ grave. The pages of the Lot Diagram 
Book are cross ruled ten squares to an 
inch. Each square represents one foot. 
A lot is designated by making a line in 
red ink around the exact number of 
square feet it contains each way, graves 
are located by ruling off squares re- 
presenting the number of surface feet 
of grave the exact distance from the 
nearest boundry lines of the lot. Trees, 
monuments, paths, walks, etc., may 
also be located.
