MILNER'S 212° SAFES
" HOLD FAST AGAINST FIRE AND FRAUD."

MILNER'S PATENT FIRE-RESISTING PRIN-
CIPLE.—Improved, Non-conduction, generating evapo-
ration, (in fire) at successive temperatures— self-contained,
self-acting, and durable, as applied in MILN E R'S ONE-
CHAMBERED PORT &TILE BOXES, (14 inch thick,) recom-
mended of not less than one cube foot inside, for ordinary-
sized Dwelling-Houses and Office Buildings.
MILNER'S DOUBLE-CHAMBERED BOXES and SAFES
(2 to 2i inches thick,) • for Warehouses, or extensive Office,
House, or Shop Premises. .
MILNER'S DOUBLE BANKERS' SAFE, (6 inches thick,)
equal to twenty-four hours' fire, for large Mansions, Ware-
houses, and extra hazardous risks, as each are equal to the fire
likely to come upon them in the entire conflagration of the
buildings they are respectively adapted for.
MILNER'S " HOLD-FAST " FIRE, VIOLENCE, and
FRAUD - RESISTING SAFES, CLOSETS, and STRONG
DOORS, the strongest Safes in the World ; no bodies under
quarter-inch thick, nor doors under half-inch thick (solid
wrought iron,) with the strongest and most secure fastenings,
and locks which their most skilful workmen cannot pick nor
open, and enclosing M iluer's unequalled fire-resisting chambers.
JAPANNED CASH BOXES (not fire-resisting) with Milner's
impregnable detector locks.
MILNER'S IMPREGNABLE LOCKS, for all uses, and com-
bination door latches.

giving sizes, prices, description, experimental tests, in re(
Pamphlets InWi:oe had at the Works, and of the Aighereittist:
from one to twenty-four hours by scientific and practical par-
ties ; and cases of actual fires in which Milner's Safes (out of
the 20,000 in use) preserved their contents unsinged, everything
else being destroyed in the ouildings, including the contents of
strong iron safes and drawegos, and Closets, with double Iron
Doors, standing beside Milner's : as in Messrs. Walker's fire
at Birkenhead; Messrs. Plimson's, of Plymouth; Messrs.
Drown's, of Glasgow, &c. &c.
CAuTiox:—None genuine but such as bear Milner's Patent
Plates, dated 1840.—Any means of producing moisture or eva-
poration within or round a safe, as securing from tire, infringes
these patents, and will be prosecuted.—Without the powerful
aid of steam, neutralising 1000 degrees of heat, no presumed
bad conductor of heat, in a thoroughly dry state (winch it will
soon become in .a dry otlice,) will preserve the contents of
Safe unburnt in strong fire.
