is sold only in a few large cities
at manufacturers headquarters.
Every new home of today wants
brass hardware which of course
is the best kind. Now we build
homes of cement and brick and
we have built houses in the War
rem District that will stand for
centuries. To conform with our
up to date ideas on building all
over the country, we need brass
hardware that will keep its color,
look we'll and not get eaten up
by rust. IL we put a genuine
brass lock in q door 1t will stay
there as long as the house Will
last. The snoddy kind we Will
have TO renew every now and
then, so where is our gam.
There would be small copper
surplus today if we had put
hunu.ed pounds OF brass hard
ware in every house instead OF
100 lbs. of iron hardware cover
Ell with brass solution.
For the past few years. / was
the builder and contractor in the n
warren District for at least $50
buildings big and small, and TINS
ought to justly prove that l know
something about hardware.
Yours very respectfully,
Charles Clason.
