with every fixture necessarily fastened permanently in its position, 
the bathroom, once completed, becomes a part of the house. It should 
therefore be carefully planned and equipped with fixtures which will 
retain their beauty and efficiency for an age. 
The Trenton Potteries Company 
Bathroom Fixtures 
The ancient art of the potter has been 
combined with modern science in making 
these fixtures as enduring as earth, modeled 
to please the eye and as sanitary as glass. 
The Trenton Potteries Company Bath¬ 
room Fixtures cannot rust, cannot change 
color, nor lose their satiny gloss. 
Deliberate smashing will hardly mar 
their surface. And remember, the cost of 
installation is neither greater nor less than 
the cost of installing the cheapest. 
Architects and plumbers every where will 
assure you there is nothing 
better.
