very large Bolton Hot Water Heater. s

very large Bolton Hot Water Heater So
well satisfied is the firm of the high
merits of the heater, that it has taken tn
| general agency forit. Very many said the
hot water steam system would not work in
the Weinstock, Lubin q Co. building, be
| cause it is the largest one-room structure
upon the Pacific Coast, being 140 by 1G0
! feet and 81 feet in hight.
But Crouch & Lyman had confidence
| In the heater and took the chances. The
result has been eminently satisfactory.
There are no less than 5000 feet of radia-
ton in the registers, and this will give
some idea of the character of the task
they had before them. The same heater,
| by the way, has been placed by this firm
! in the Sacramento Bank. with entire sue
| cess.
| The Bolton heater has been tested in
the severest climates, and has in all
instances stood the test. The weakness of
most heaters is in their imperfect cir
| culation; in the Bolton the water passes
through small pipes, where there are no
counter currents. The direction of
almost every pipe in the boiler is vertical,
so that the rapid upward flow of the
| water is unimpeded, and as a result there
IS the most perfect possible circulation.
The heater is the acme of simplicity. All
the heating surface is readily accessible
! by doors. The fire is in rocking CRATE
and easily freed of ashes and cinders.
| Whoever can engineer a coal stove
| ought to be able to run one of these
| heaters. OF course in no brief space can
| this heater be described. TO be thor
oughly appreciated it must be seen in
operation, or cuts and drawings of it ex-
amined. The thing to do for all con-
templating heating houses by such a
system, is to examine the heater in opera
ton in the Weinstock, Lubin IL Co. IS
building, as set in and fitted by Crouch
/ & Lyman, the general agents. /.
Cement Walk and Floor Work.
About five years ago Adolph
| Teichert, master worker in cement,
| came to Sacramento and established him.
self in business. and he at once became a
leader in such work, and his skill is
| testified to by host of walks and floors
| laid In all sections of the city.
Mr.. Teichert was foreman for the Cali
| tornla Artificial Stone Company of San
| francisco for twelve years-in itself full

| directed all the work in cement upon the
| property of Senator James G. Fair, Hol-
| brook, Merrill d Stetson, Baker 81 Ham
| ilton and the new City Hall of San Fran
cisco.
While he was acting for the company
we have named many large contracts
| were filled by it throughout the Pacific
| Coast, and they were completed and su-
| perintended under the personal direction
| OF Mr.. Teichert. Since he has commenced
| business on his own account in Sacra-
mento he has had uniform success and
| has won an enviable business reputation.
Among the examples of his fine work are

| All the work in the Weinstock, Lubin

walkways was done by Mr.. Teichert
That it is a splendid example of the Skill

J of those who use the walks and floors
The work was done under the most try
ing circumstances, business being carried
on while the stone was laid. That is to
say he laid the cement floors and all
the outer walks while the firms trade
and traffic was continued above and all
about him. Yet under these trying con-
ditions Mr.. Teiehert accomplished as
