chain originally used for tbis purpose was known iu 1
chain," and was composed of short pieces of metal interlocking and riveted
together. It was at flrst imported from England and continued in use for
a number of years; yet, notwithstanding its expense, it commanded a
large sale, and some fifteen years ago Messrs. Smitb & Egge, of Bridge¬
port, Conn., now The Smith & Egge Manufacturing Company, introduced
a sash chain that combines all the essential elements of success and
yet is sold at a cost so small as to make it available fcr factories aud ordi¬
nary dwelling houses; it is, in fact, an economical suhsti<.ute for cord.
This sash chain has been so successful that they have built up chain
machines which have a capacity of about 900,000 feet per annum, and tbe
company's orders are so large that they are kept running almost inter¬
ruptedly. It will pay many builders and architects in New York, Brook¬
lyn and other cities to send for the catalogue of the company.
