 And acknowledged by the Trade and the Public generally, to

 Screen Frames ever invented. 
 
Window and Door Screen Corners. 
 
 THE BEST AND ONLY COMPLETE ARRANGEMENT FOR 
 WINDOW AND DOOR SCREENS EVER INVENTED. 
 
 The ready sale that Porter’s Patent Window 
 and Door Screen Corners have met with for the 
 past four years has made them a permanent fixture in 
 the hardware trade, and convinced the manufacturers 
 that an article of this kind is a necessity. 
 
 No home is complete without good screens, and in 
 order to enable all to have them, the Porter Manufac- 
 turing Company have put into the market an article 
 that enables e^■ery one to make their own, or have 
 them made, at about one-half the price usualh’ charged. 
 
 In issuing this Illustrated Price List, we have intend- 
 ed to show up our goods so that all can see the difi'erent 
 styles the}’ can be used for, and to enable any one to 
 make the selection which they may desire, without any 
 mistakes; and we trust the same will be appreciated.

Window Screen Frame, No. i. 
 
 The cut on opposite page shows a common Screen 
 Window, made with No. i, No. i 1-2 or No. 4 Cor- 
 ners, and No. 20, or No. 1 20, No. 21, or No. 1 2 1 Sticks. 
 Two of the sticks have grooves (one each side), and 
 there being two slides or sticks that are screwed to in- 
 side casing, the Screen Frame slides from top to bot- 
 tom of window, thus affording a fly-tight screen for 
 either upper or lower sash; can be easily raised to open 
 or shut your windows or blinds; and when not wanted 
 for use can be raised to upper part of window under 
 the curtain. 
 
 No. 20 or 120 Sticks are mostly used with No. i 
 Corners; No. 21 or 121 Sticks are mostly used with 
 No. I 1-2 Corners; either Sticks are used with No. 4 
 Corners. 
 
 Directions for putting together accompany each set.

Window Screen Frame, No. 2. 
 
 The cut on opposite page shows a Screen Window 
 with center piece, which is used only where the win- 
 dows are quite wide, and is made with No. i or No.

 Corners and No. 4 1-2 Center Pieces with No. 20, 120. 
 or No. 21, 12 1 Sticks, with an extra upright piece. 
 The sticks are got out the same as frame No. i, so they 
 can be used for either upper or lower windows. No. 
 21 or 1 21 Sticks are mostly used for this style Frame, 
 but are not put up expressly for it. It requires only an 
 extra stick 7-8x1 1-4 inches, and the length desired for 
 the height of Screen Frame, and can be very easj-ly ob- 
 tained, or will be furnished if desired. ^

Door Screen Frame, No. i. 
 
 The cut on opposite page shows a common or Two- 
 Panel Screen Door, made with No. 2 1-2 or No. 3 Cor- 
 ners and any of the different size Door Sticks, and is a 
 complete Door Sereen Frame that cannot sag or warp 
 out of shape. It is ornamental, cheap and durable. 
 There is no mortising or tenoning, will last a lifetime, 
 and is so easily put together to fit any door that all will 
 see the advantage it has over the old-fashioned method 
 of mortising, which is liable to sag and warp, while 
 with Porter’s Corners this is an impossibility.

Screen Door, No. 2. 
 
 The cut on opposite page shows a Four-Panel Screen 
 Door, which is made with one set No. 2 1-2 and two 
 sets No. 1-2, or one set No. 3 and two sets No. 4 1-2. 
 The Sticks used are the same as those used in Door 
 Screen Frame No. i, with the addition of two upright 
 pieces for the centre. This makes a very ornamental 
 door, and is recommended where the frame is three : 
 feet wide or over, but is not necessary. It is very 
 easily put together, and the expense is but very little 
 more than for the No. i Frame.

 PORTER’S CUPBOARD DOOR LATCH. 
 
 Price Per Rozcn. 
 
This new invention far supersedes the common 
 Latches now in use. As the above cut will show, it 
 does away with all springs, is a reversible Latch, in con- 
 junction with a pivoted weighted lever, and is impossi- 
 ble to get out of order. It has an easy motion, responds 
 readily, and does not require a slam to make it latch 
 after it has been used a while, like the ordinary coil 
 spring latch.

PORTER’S BLIND CORNER. 
 
 The convenience with which old blinds that have sagged out of shape 
 can be repaired with them, and the facility with which they can be used in 
 making new ones so they will always stay in place, will we think meet a 
 demand which has long been felt. The corners in no way interfere with 
 the slats turning, and can be used on either side. Two corners will in a 
 great many cases answer the purpose.
