The Grinnell Sprinlder has received official recognition from the Fire Insurance Offices in alUtlie important countries of tho world. Not only havo the Insurance Companies published special Codes of Rules to regulate Automatio Sprinkler Installations, but they grant, discounts, ranging, from 20 to 50 per cent, off thef premiums of. buildings equipped with the GFnnnell Sprinkler.- These discounts extend to all. classes of risks, and, therefore, apart altogether from the question of protection and immunity from fire, tho Grinnell is a firstclass investment, the saving in the Insurance premiums paying a very satisfactory return upon the outlny. Moreover, property/ tho ( insurance of which has been'previously very difficult to obtain on account of tho exceptional hazard involved, is freely accepted by tho Firo Offioes after it has been protected with Grinnell Sprinklers.—Advt. 837
