DY Our Patent we entirely ObviRte
ID all objections, as we use perfectly dry
filling, composed OF Dry Calcined Plaster of
Paris and Alum We pack this mixture be-
tween the inner and the outer cases, where
It remains unchanged any number of years.
until fire melts the alum (Which contains
large quantity OF Wafer) and thus saturates
the plaster and forms the steam which al
ways preserves the contents Of the safe.
The piRsIer, by being wet, sets firmly: and
even If the alum near the outside is entire
lY melted, it forms cells which retain the
precise shape of the Jumps of alum, and the
filling of plaster keeps the safe as well hlleCt
81 before the fire. The advantages Of using
q dry filling are very apparent, viz: It does
not mould the contents of the safe; 1t never
can rust the iron; it will always remain
derfectly hre-proOf.
