Business Mention.

The D. M. Stewart [sic] Steward Manufacturing company of Chattanooga, Tenn., manufacturers of lava insulators, have been obliged to more than double their facilities for turning out this class of work, so great has been the demand for these goods. The Thomson-Houston company alone have orders with them nearly all the time for over 200,000 insulators. The Brush company of Cincinnati in a letter to the company writes: "We desire to express to you our appreciation of the invaluable qualities possessed by the patent lava insulators you have furnished us. We have found it to be the only insulator that can stand the severest tests, and have no hesitancy in expressing the opinion that it will stand any and all tests that an electrical insulator can be put to."
