The general rule to be always observed is this : Take (lie quickest and surest nirfhol possible to break the Grenades and scatter the c^ e^,,'| lt^,^,^. l ,f.' " )0 re covers a bin 1 flat surface, like the walls 01 floor ot a room, thrs>w the" Chehades hard enough to break theni and scßtter their contents into the ,flre. If the fire can be approached close enough lo do so, take a Grenade ih each hand by the neck, and with right hand Grenade knock uiti from the left hand, scattering the contents of both into ihe fire. Should a tue occur among soft substances like drapery, a pile oorf r rags, hay, or shavings, wheic they camiou be approached to break the Gienades into the flame, break the Giehadesihto a ctish and cUtbli the contents upon the fire. These general directions will enable any one to master a fire of even large extent witH those Grenades, by exercising a little common sense. N.B. — It is the gas generated that extinguishes fire. Frequently tests are made by purchasers to satisfy their own curiosity, by encleavbrrinj? to extinguish a huge open-air boniire with one Gieaade. We do not claim to extinguish bonfires, built upon the ground, with one di* two Grenades. A little reflection will iiiake jo apparent to any one that when broken upon such fires the largest part of -tho extinguisim.^ gas is carried upward and away from the fire by the strong draft. Hence all this ela^r 6t" fires require a larger number of Grenades broken at tlie base of the fire to extinguish it. Nine out of ten actual fires are on surfaces so exposed that they can be readily reached bv fehe gas. Where the wall of a room is on firo, break the Grenades in fco the firo as near t)j^ base as possible and the gas will be carried upward, and cover a larger area of flame. We do not claim to be able to control fives that may occur in large bodies of o ; tj varnishes, etc., in tanks or barrels, unless taken the immediate outset, as these .articled when subjected to heat arc rapidly conveited into highly inflammable gases. Hence, even when such fires are to all outward appearances extinguished by the Grenades, a sufticieiiii degree of heat might still exist to causo spontaneous re-ignition after the fire-extingirnhmt* gas has expended its force. . v , • .
