(). Hy the special construction of this pump you have Double- Ai tion with only one cylinder, which makes it more comjiact and |much stronger than any other jiump. The worknianship and (luaiity of material u^ed in their manu- iacture, and the small amount of friction while in use, makes them more dural)le than other pumps. From our experience and per- sonal oijservations which cover several years, we have no hesita tion in saying that our pumps stand second to none in Canada and the United Slates.
