Boilers
If some one is late to the meal, you can keep the food
warm, or you can keep nice and hot those plates and dishes
that must be served so, to be tasteful and relishable, by
placing in your dining-room one of our oven -radiators.
are the highest achievement in house warming
and domestic economy. IDEAL Boilers save
the cost of the entire outfit in a few years and
AMERICAN Radiators distribute Florida
weather throughout the house. Anyone can
care for an IDEAL Boiler. It is automatic and absolutely safe. AMERICAN
Radiators supply a gentle warmth without the dust and dirt of hot-air furnace,
stove or open fire. They are designed as a part of the general scheme of home
comfort, economy, and beauty and so made as to collect no
dust. The oven-radiator is but one of many kinds designed
to add comfort to the home and decrease labor.
ADVANTAGE 16 : Air must be supplied under the grate to the fuel in
the fire-pot, in addition to a proper amount through the fire-door slide
over the top or face of the fire to mix with the flame and free fuel-gases,
and thus to cause good, sharp, complete combustion. In proportion as
the right amount of air is supplied, at right points, the right economy in
fuel is secured. The air-burning features of IDEAL Boilers are as fully
developed as in the highest forms of modern gas and oil burners. Ask for
our free catalog, "Ideal Heating," which tells all the advantages.
Do not wait to build a new home, but enjoy comfort and content in the
present one. No tearing up nor disturbing occupants or old heating equip-
ment. Sizes for all classes of buildings — smallest to largest — in town or
country. Our free book, " Ideal Heating Investments," tells much that it
will pay you well to know. Write us today kind and size of building you
wish to heat. Prices are now most fai'orable.

^^N the following pages no attempt has been made to exploit the " Winslow Iron-spot" bricks.
Their popularity is so well established by their widespread use that any description would be
superfluous. It is of interest to note that one of the earliest useis of Iron-spot bricks was the late
Stanford White, for whom they were specially manufactured for use in the Tiffany House, New
York City. Since that time prominent architects in all parts of the country have specified " Winslow
Iron-spots" to the exclusion of those of any other manufacture.
The purpose of this article is to make it known that we are not confining ourselves exclusively
to the manufacture of bricks, but are making use of our exceptional selling facilities and wide
acquaintance with other manufacturers to destribute their bricks, examples of which are shown in the
accomDanvin" illustrations.

PTROM a very remote period in the history of man, down to the present day, brick has been
more or less of an important factor in the architectural development of the world. It was
an exigency placed by nature upon the Babylonian — the absence of quarries and forests — that
first led to the utilization of clay as a building material, and if, as is asserted by eminent
authorities, the earliest civilization was formed in Babylonia, brick, therefore, may be considered
the earliest material used in permanent construction, as well as the basis for the invention of the
arch, dome, tunnel, and other methods of vaulting which had their origin at that time. Walls
and ruins of brick have been discovered dating long before 4000 B. C.
Assyria followed Babylonia very closely, using stone scarcely at all, except occasionally for
foundations and facings. Two kinds of brick were generally employed — the crude, or sun-dried,
and the kiln-dried, or fired brick — the latter being used principally for the facing of masses of
crude brick, so as to preserve them from disintegration, especially by water, and for thin and
inner walls.

CONSTANT progress was made in the Art of Brickmakin^ by nation after nation, and in the
Middle Ages was evolved a wonderful variety ot molded bricks which have served down
to the present day as models for ornamental brickwork.
Brick, above all other building materials, possesses possibilities for artistic architectural expression,
and has also a peculiar combining quality which gives it a special advantage, in that it can be
used effectively in conjunction with all other building materials. It fits in readily with wood, granite,
stone or stucco, concrete or steel, and this can hardly be said of any other structural product.
Modern appliances and modern methods of manufacture are enabling architects to meet their
every requirement. Molded bricks are produced in endless variety of design, from simple sections,
like those of cornice, plinth, and string course bricks, up to the most elaborately decorated blocks of
different forms, such as diaper patterns for walls and moldings for entablature work. The uniformity
of color and great exactness of shape, such as is found in the finished product of modern manufacture,
is being varied by the revival of the rougher texture and harmonizing tints found in the brickwork
of the ancients, and with this brickwork can be produced an effect of seeming elaboration, with
plays of light and shadow, at infinitely less cost than the carvings and moldings of stone.
" The survival of the fittest " is applicable to brick, of all building materials, for, in addition to
its undoubted supremacy in strength, durability, sanitary qualities, and general structural value, it may
truthfully be asserted that as an artistic medium it ranks equally high

FOR ARCHITECTS
The latest examples of gas lamps
for every purpose are on display at our
New Store at 1 1 th and Market Streets.
We are able to show architects and
builders artistic and appropriate gas fix-
tures for residences or public buildings
where design is a consideration of im-
portance.
All hanging fixtures and brackets
are equipped with self lighting devices.
The fixtures carrying two or more
lamps have a central control ; by turning
a key in the centre of the fixture all the
lamps are lighted or extinguished.
We are also able to demonstrate
lighting systems having a distance control,
where the pressing of a button lights or
extinguishes one fixture or a series of
lamps.
For residence, hall or store lighting
the BEST light is secured by using in'
verted gas lamps.
For "big space lighting" the gas
arc is unexcelled, it gives the most light
for the least money.
If you w^ill notify us we will gladly
have one of our representatives confer
with you in regard to gas piping or any
of the latest methods of gas lighting and
Ignition systems.
All data as to specifications and
costs is always at the disposal of archi-
tects and builders.

^^'e manufacture a line of siitipU' phunbinij ijoods of the very
best quality, as our name " I X L " implies; so that those who have
used our goods all speak of them in the highest terms of praise as to
their appearance and working qtialities. In their construction we
use no special washers, for uur motto is " Simplicity."
The " I X L" Air Compressor and Beer Pump is d.'itensively
used by doctors, dentists, barbers, hotel-keepers, and other users of
compressed air.
it is a quick producer of air, for in a few minutes you get tiie full
pressure. It collects no slime, and gives a dry, pure and cool body
of ail at each stroke. It is not affected by muddy or gritty water, as
tliere are only two washers on inside of compressor. It will reduce
w ater rent about 60 per cent.
The " I X L '" Anti-Free/cing Closet Combination is guaranteed
against freezing, if properly set. It consists of a low-down gahan-
i.^ed tank with lid; porcelain-lined oval-flushing rim hopper; hnished
oak swinging-seat, with equalized weight, self-closing hopper valve;
valve rest; tioor flange; bolts and nuts. All iron is gahanized. It
has no flush pipe, no washers, and no fitting inside of tank; hence
complete drainage of all water surfaces. It is quickly adjusted.
Fasten tank against wall, couple to closet and it is ready for use.
Tiie " Suri " Urinal Combina-
tion includes a " Suri " Automatic
Siphon Tank (any size or style),
N. P. flush pipe, brackets and " i X

will feed eight sprays). It can be
furnished with porcelain urinal, if
desired.
Sprays are positive in action ;
throw a sheet of water against slab,
with a downward force; will not
splash, and keeps the floor dry. The
mouth of spravs is so constructed that
the slab forms the back of sprays,
preventing the mouth from crystal-
lizing. -SIR!" IRINWL CUMBlN.'iTIOX

Pure white lead and pure linseed oil paint makes a beautiful

See to it, however, that ^pure white lead is used.
One sure sign of purity in white lead is the Dutch Boy

Specify National Lead Company's pure white lead for all
painting and have your inspector look for the Dutch Boy Painter

In the succeeding pages we illustrate a few of the buildings in which
"Tapestry" Brick has been used. The monumental character of these
buildings and the high standing of the architects from whose designs they
have been erected, is of itself sufficient proof that "Tapestry" Brick is in
no sense a "fad," but that it has taken its place as a standard building
material, combining in the highest degree, utility, beauty and economy.
Had the designers of these buildings had the least doubt as to the real merit
of the material or the ultimate success of its use, it would not have been
chosen for work of such importance.
Lack of space prevents our illustrating further examples, but the excel-
lent effects produced by "Tapestry" Brick in buildings of a similar nature
in almost every large city east of the Mississippi River, warrants our state-
ment that ^'' Tapes fry'" Brick is pre-eminent Iv desirable ajid particularly
adapted not only for country and city houses but for churches^ libraries,
hospitals, clubhouses, schools, fraternal buildings and high grade apartments.
Even the careful description of the texture, bonding and selection of
the brick which we present on the following pages can give but a slight idea
of the beauty of "Tapestry" Brick; the only adequate impression is one
gained from the buildings wherein it is used, and we cordially invite not
only the inspection of those illustrated herewith, but of those in other cities,
a list of which will be furnished to any one sufficiently interested to inquire.

At a distance, this building is of a reddish gray tint,
the contrasting colors of the individual bricks being
entirely eliminated by the great number of inter-
mediate shadings and the relatively large size of
the mortar joint. At a closer view point, the different
shades are very pronounced, although in perfect har-
mony— in fact, the more the work is studied, the
more the impression grows that "Tapestry" brick-
work has artistic possibilities far beyond our powers
of description. The medallions which are shown in
the upper story of this building are "Brickotta."

BRICKWORK DETAILS
The details of historic brickwork have never been compiled in con-
venient form, bnt are scattered through innumerable books, magazines and
loose photographs. The accumulation of anything like complete data
on the subject involves a lifetime of study and research which the average
architect, with his thousand and one problems, cannot hope to give.
The awakening interest in better brickwork in America seems therefore
to have created the need of expert service in connection with its design
and execution, and we have been called upon during the last year by many
of the leading architects in New York to render assistance in these matters.
We have therefore organized a designing and drafting department
and are prepared to help the architect in the preparation of his drawings
of the facade, to submit for his approval water-color sketches and working
drawings showing the detail of both plain and pattern brickwork, and to
assist in drawing up specifications as to the style of bond, the composition,
mixing and use of the mortar and other details of brickwork which
may be required.
We are prepared to lay up brick in any desired style on the proposed
site or elsewhere, thereby offering an opportunity of studying the effect
of the proposed brickwork long before the plans are completed and the
contracts let.
If necessary we will send an expert to the job in its early stages to see
that the work is properly started and that the architect's "Clerk of the
Work" is fully posted, so that he may intelligently supervise the work
as it progresses.
The detailing and execution of highly ornamental and special pattern
work has become a question of expert knowledge and skill, and having been
actively connected with the execution of much of the fine work which has been
done in and around New York within the last few years, we are pleased to
offer to architects and their clients, such assistance as lies within our power.
The interior lining just completed in the Tap Room of the Hotel Bel-
vedere at Baltimore, of which Parker, Thomas & Rice are the architects,
and which is illustrated on the following page, is an example of our work.

The distinctive features of the M. & D. RANGES leave them without a
rival and place them beyond the recognition of a competitor in their class.
The Original Round Fire Pot, the
method ot operating and controlling the
draft, the balanced oven door, and the means
of properly ventilating the oven are a few
ot the most important points in this range.
The high closet differs materially from
others and is in strict keeping with the
quality ot these ranges. Where ciesired it
can also be furnished with the high shelf.
The grate is ot a revolving pattern with
draw centre so as to conveniently remove
clinkers. The water back is correctly pro-
portioned and gives an excellent supply of
hot water. Made in four sizes, single or
double oven, and three sizes, coal and gas
combination. By specifying these goods,
architects will be giving their clients the
BEST range that money can buy

HE foreign travel and study of
Im 'f^i architects which in recent years
has extended more and more ott
the beaten track of tourists and into the re-
mote recesses of England, France, Italy, and
Spain, have resulted in the steadily increas-
ing appreciation of the endless architectural
and decorative possibilities of brick work
used either alone or in combination with
other materials. The day has passed when
the designer in brick could afford to rely for
his architectural effect solely upon stone or
terra cotta used in asso-
ciation with his brick
work for cornices, belt
courses and the framing
of windows and doors,
and the color, texture,
size of brick and arrange-
ment of joints must now
be studied with an
amount of care undreamed of in the past in
order to realize the beautiful possibilities of
this material.
The progress made by the manufacturers
of brick in the production
of and endless variety of
colors and surfaces m
their product fully equals
that of the producers of
tile and terra cotta, and
in order to secure abso-
lutely new and original
effects in these materials.

it IS no longer necessary to go through a long
series of experiments in the production of
new colors and textures. The experimen-
ting has been done by the brick manufac-
turers of the country, and an intelligent
examination and selection of the materials
now regularly manufactured is all that is
necessary to insure absolute accuracy m
carrying out the designer's scheme.

Did You Ever Stop to Think
THAT a iliMir, no mutter where

usace, than any other portion of

THAT all the IrouMc wood doors
tiive ill .sa<;-uing, hindinfr. erackino',
and hy recpiiring almost constant
attention dI' carpenter, jiainter
and locksmith are avoided hy
visini;' our steel dcmrs?
THAT wood door?, because of the
ex)icnse of re-finishing, re-hang-
ing and readjusting the hard-
ware, usually cost many times
their orit;inal price before they
have lived half their lives of use-
fullnes.s?
THAT dissa]iointnient in the fin-
ished appearance of the doors and
trim in your building Viecause the
painting, varnishing, etc., had to
be done while the air was full of
ilirt and dust, can be eliminated
by having our steel doors and
trim delivered at the building
already finished?
THAT the increased security, at-
tractiveness and tone of a building
wdiere our doors and trim have
been used, makes such a]iart-
ments orofliices sought by tenants.

THE NOVELTY
SYSTEM
of
HEATING
and
VENTILATING
SPECIAL NOVELTY HEATER
For hard coal, for soft coal or for coke.
Htavy all-cast iron construction.
For the special attention of architects and their cliejits, and of the owners of
homes that are not properly heated:
A great change in the method of heating the lietter class of residences is at hand. The
next step forward in house construction will be FORMAL VENTILATIOX in connection
with heating. There is now under way a great national movement, for the promotion,
through the VV'arm-Air-Heater System of the healthful heating and ventilation of residences.
It will soon be considered a barbarous and an uncivilized thing to construct a residence
without any formal provision for ventilation.
In no other way is it PRACTICABLE to ventilate houses except in connection with
proper warm-air-furnace heating.
No other manufacturer is so well prepared as we are to equip architects and heating
contractors with the apparatus, the knowlege, the rules and the directions necessary to en-
able them to become expert, practical heating and vcntikiting engineers.
The Xovelty Furnace Handbook is the o ily manual in existence that gives clear, com-
plete, definite, practical rules for installing warm air heating and ventilating plants. No
other manufacturer than ourselves assumes complete responsibility for every plant instal-
led in accordance with his rules.
If your furnace dealer installs for you a NOVELTY FURNACE in accordance with
the rules of the NOVELTY SYSTEM you will be absolutely sure to have a perfectly
heated and healthfully ventilated house.
This is an age of sanitation, and from the standpoint of healthfulness, warm air
furnace heating is immeasurably superior to direct water or steam heating.
Every authority on ventilation, every competent heating engineer, every physician who
has given the question the slightest study, condemns direct steam or water heating as being
in violation of nature's laws. There is no division of opinion among those who speak with
authority on this subject: they agree without a dissenting voice that the only proper way
to heat an apartment is by pouring pure warm air into it.
To architects and to their clients, upon whom will devolve the selection of heating ap-
paratus for their residences, we will be glad to mail the most attractive and interesting
book ever issued in the heating business.— "ONE HUNDRED HEALTHFULLY HEATED
HOMES."

In tearing down the old

covered tnat had been in tne
soil for thirty years. Tne
Pennsylvania Company s own
cnemist analyzed some of tnis
pitcn. side by side witn ncAv
material, rle found that tne
test of time had not changed
its chemical and ■waterproofing
properties in the slightest.
These tests so thoroughly
established the superiority of
Coal Tar Pitch for Mvater-
proofmg that it has been used
exclusively (except in the first
section) in ■waterproofing the
entire tunnel across Manhat-
tan Island.
We have already delivered
over 3,600,000 pounds of pitch

of the best tubular boilers and greatly increased heating
surfaces. Adapted to steam or hot water.
MODEL Heating System
Water boils almost instantly, utilizing the full value
of all the heat produced in the firebox. So complete is
this process that the gases and smoke carry less heat up
the chimney than in any other heating system. As a
result it saves one-third to one-half of the coal

THE WEBSTER "QR"
MODULATION SYSTEM OF HEATING
^ Architects who desire to give their cHents the best, should carefully consider
the many advantages of the Webster "QR" Modulation System of Steam
Heatmg.
^ With it the old fashioned, blind manipulation of the radiator supply is super-
seded by the semi-automatic regulation of the Webster Modulation Valve,
which gives quick response when more or less heat is required. Anything
between the full heat of steam and the mild warmth of hot water can be
obtained.
^ It can be applied to vacuum heating systems, or to low-pressure gravity
systems. The latter is especially interesting for small apartment houses,
schools, and to residences, etc., as no vacuum pump is used and no licensed
engineer is necessary.
^ We are glad to cooperate with architects who desire further information for
specific cases.
—Our booklet 23-M will be sent upon request.
