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.
