FIRE "EXCELSIOR" KILLERS
CLEARING OUT STOCK BELOW COST.
SAFETY AT THE PEAK, KOWLOON AND THE SUBURBS-
For Life and Property is a question of adequate water supply. If you occupy an out of the way place remote from a public fire department, you are never safe from the carelessness of Fervants or Children, or even from a fire in your neighbour's house, unless you are provided with an “EXCELSIOR” DOMESTIC FIRE EXTINGUISHER which places at your disposal the means of extinguishing fire before it gets the mastery
over you.
THE FEELING OF SECURITY which an Excelsior Domestic Fire Extinguisher insures to its owners will alone many times repay the cost. N3 Suitable for Godowas, Stores and Ships. No. 2 Suitable for Private Houses, Offices, Motor Boats, etc.
