BAILEY'S PATENT FIRE-PROOF BUILDING MATERIAL.
MONG the many excellent qualities A possessed by this material for ceil- ings, partitions, roofs and floors, in ad- dition to being absolutely fire-proof, it presents a flat surface on bottom and on top after being placed in position, there- by giving a flat ceiling, substantial and ready for plastering, and a true and firm foundation for the floor. They are frec from shrinkage, thereby avoiding the unsightly cracks invariably seen in ceil- ings of buildings.
The further advantages of these par- titions are lightness, weighing about two and one-half pounds per foot, including the hollow rods ; they are vermin-proof; do not transmit heat or sound, and can be set up very rapidly.
These ceilings can be extended and suspended any distance below the beams. They are hung by means of iron hooks and eye-bolts.

No. 1. TOP VIEW

Lenses, 2 in. und 3 in. Square.
A'S illustrated in the above cuts, the lenses in this, our new Square Opening Concrete Light, are round on top and square at the bottom, each lens thus having a larger distributive area than its attractive or upper surface, whereby its diffusive qualities are, greatly increased. In all other vault light work of a like nature the lenses are of the same diameter top and bottom, and when set in the plates the under portion has a smaller area than the top, as the bearing of the tiles on which the glasses are set obstruct just so much of the light passing through each lens as to make loss of the actual light area near'y fifteen per cent., while by using the square bottom lenses we gain really double this per cent., and by setting each lens in a separate light opening, each di rectly connected, we are enabled to set so many, more to each square foot, and thus we gain an additional per cent. of light area, making a total increase above all other styles of concrete work of fifty per cent., as these figures show;
