The object of this Association is totally to abolish the nee of
climbing boys, who, notwithstanding the penalties to which those
employing them are subjected by the 3d and 4th Victoria, cap. 85,
are coutinaally resorted to. This breach of the law is acquiesced in
by a large portion of the public, from a conviction of the utter im-
poseitillty in innumerable eases of cleansing a chimney or Rue with
the old machine. For the laudable purpose of furthering the objects
of the law by avoiding all necessity for its infringement, the inge-
niece and effective Ramoneur machine has been invented. This
invention consists of four brushes forming a square head, which
by means of elastic springs contracts or expands, according to
the small or extended space in which the machine moves, thereby
creating an even pressure on all four sisles of a chimney. The
rods attached to this head or brush are suPplied at intervals with
universal spring joists, capable of turning even a right angle
and the whole is surmounted with a double revolving ball, having
also a universal spring joint, which leads the brush with certainty
past every angle, and into every corner, cleansing its roate most
perfectly. The capabilities of this machine are hest demonstrated
by the fact, that it is exclusively aced in the Government and
numerous public offices, while the patronage bestowed by a large
camber of the nobility and gentry in eontinuing their annual con-
tracts to the patentees evidences their sense of its superiority, as well
as of the philanthropic views of the projectors. Detailed prospectuses
may be obtained, and a working model of the machine seen, at the
offices of the solicitor, F, Dolman, Esq., 55, Jennyn-street, St.
James's ; at Messrs. Barry and Co.';', brokers, 7, Sirchin-lane ; at
W. Heath, Esq.'s, Nag's Head-court, Gracechurch-street; and at the
principal office, I, Wellington-street, Lendon-bridge, Borough, wkero
applications for shares may be addressed.
