THE NEW ILLUMINATING GLASS TILE.
Probably no material used in the construction of
buildings has, during the past few years, come into such
a general use as the glass tiles used for areas, vaults'
and sky-lights. In many instances, liowever, there
have been continuous complaints of leakages on one
side and of absence of ventilation on the other. By re¬
ferring to another column it will be noticed that the
difficulties attending the use of the old-fashioned tiles
have been entirely overcome, aud that the new firm, do¬
ing business under ;the style of the Humboldt Iron
Works, at 152 Centre Street, have invented, patented,
and introduced into the market a new glass tile which
obviates the possibility of any complaints as above
stated. The tile manufactured by them presents the
novel and ingenious feature that the glass is inserted
and fastened by means of a peculiar clutch or lock—and
thus locked the tile becomes thoroughly watertight, it
being impossible for the water to get through. Again,
in summer time, when the atmospher may be close, or
even suffocating, in the lower basement or front area of
a building, the glass of the tile can be easily removed
in the same manner as it can be replaced at plea.eare,
should any repairs become necessary, which is not very
likely, as the tile is so constructed as to counteract the
breaking of the glass by expansion or contraction of
the plate. Another important feature is that the lens
are made on the most scientific principles, collecting
more light and difi"using it with grea'ter efficiency than
any other lens heretofore in use. The Humboldt Iron
Works deserve great credit for having placed before the
cummunity an article which so thoroughly improves the
material so generally used now in the construction of
store fronts and stables, and which must ultimately rev¬
olutionize that entire branch of the building trade. We
would advise all builders, ironmen, and property own¬
ers to visit the Centre Street establishment above al¬
luded to, where they will find, in addition, quite a num¬
ber of articles that must attract their attention in the
course of business operations.
