The Rediord and Saranac Crown Window Glass
are distinguished from ordinary Glass by the uncom-
mon eyenness and beauty of surface the superior
transparency and lghtness of color the great thick
ness, and the general excellence of the materials
which compose them. The surface not being polish
cd after being blown, retains the enamel brilliancy
and hardness and is not subject to the objection so
often applied to Plate Glass cf being easily defaced
and permanently bedmmed by dust; being made of
extra thickness, will, without injury, withstand yio-
lent winds, hail storms, jars of cannon sc. Its use
