| TEXT | In the important item of refrigerators modern science has made vast advances of late years, and the embodiment of perfection has been attained in the celebrated "Zero'' refrigerator, manufactured by the " Zero " Refrigerator Company, of which Mr. Alexander M. Lesley is the enterprising manager, and likewise the inventor and patentee of the company's two prominent specialties, viz.: the refrigerator, as mentioned above, and the " Rotunda Furnace," admittedly the best in the market. Mr. Lesley began business in 1857, and early brought to bear his inventive genius on the problem of a refrigerator which would really refrigerate and do its duty in the best manner. The " Zero " is so constructed that all foul air is conducted out by means of a siphon, and is not allowed to collect, to impregnate the food and render it unfit for use. Wherever exhibited, the " Zero " has received the first prize, and the highest commendation. The company, under the able management of Mr. Lesley, manufactures them upon a large scale, and their trade lies all over the world, over fifty thousand having already been sold. The company is also the manufacturer of the famous "Rotunda Furnace," which, by its scientifically correct construction, secures the largest possible heating surface with ease in operation and management, also absolute security from gas. It combines great power with economy, and is a self-cleaning furnace, giving immense radiating power, and is in fact much the best for warming all public or private buildings, and is arranged for hard or soft coal. It received the award of merit from the American Institute in 1881 and 1882. Mr. Lesley is a native of New York, well known and highly respected as an honorable and reliable inventor and manufacturer, and who ably and faithfully discharges the onerous duties devolving upon him as manager. |
