The Redford and Saranac Crown Window Glass
are distinguished from ordinary Glass by the uncom-
mon eyenness and beauty of surface, the superior
transparency and ghtness of color the great thick
ness, and the general excellence of the materials
which compose them. The surface not being polish
ed after being blown, retains the enamel brlliancy,
and hardness and is not subject to the objection so
often applied to Plate Glass of being easily defaced
and permanently bedmmed by dust being made of
