ing been tested for a number of years in Syra-
cuse, N. Y., by the patentees.
It costs about one-half as much as tin; will
last much longer; is not affected by the high
winds so prevalent in this country, and will re-
main the same in tho coldost or warmest weath
or.

flat roofing in tho country, so desirable for cheap-
ness.
