Henry Castle and Sons, the well-known Admiralty ship- breakers of Millbank, S.W ., have forwarded for our report the above improvement, which de­ serves more than passing notice. It is a design for out-door seats and chairs, and we have no hesi­ tation in saying that for elegance, comfort, and durability, it is the best thing of the kind that we have seen. These seats are made of the seasoned teak timber, taken from old navy ships which Messrs. Castle have broken up, and, the frames being of wrought iron and galvanised, they are as nearly as may be impervious to the effect of sun or rain. They can be fitted with patent folding cover-seats and footboards, which protect the seats from rain and the feet from damp. We recom­ mend those who are in want of seats for tlieir gardens and grounds to give them a trial. The prices are about the same as those of other makers.” THE’FAVORITE- 4- FfSEAT.- THE SUPERB S rT S E A r Send fo r Price List and Illustrated Sheet to the Patentees and Manufacturers, H.
