Application filed October 14, 1891. Serial No. 403,726. Term of patent 7 years.

To all whont it may concern:

Be it known that I, EDWARD GERMAIN, of Saginaw, in the State of lllichigen, have invented and produced a new and origin-(ii Design for Mantels, of which the foliowing is n specification.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents the mantel in front elevation. Fig. 2 is a, transverse vertical sectional elevation of the szune. Fig. 3 is a cross-section of one of the pilnsters.

The sectional views are intended not to exhibit the mechanical construction of the mantel, but to better illustrate the outline and configuration of the several parts of the mantel.

a are the pilesters; b, are the plinths; c, the brackets or dentnls; d, the nmntel-hoerd; e, the frieze; f, the grounds, and g the fire-strips. Upon the groundsfare raised vertical backin strips or panels 7L, having their longitudinal edges beveled, as at '6. Upon these raised vertical hacking strips or panels are the pilesters, plinths, and brackets or dentels. Each pilnster has its outer face molded, as shown in Fig. 1, and in cross-section, Fig. 2, where the outline of the molding is plainly exhibited. The plinths are thicker and wider than their pilasters, thus projecting beyond the latter in front and at the sides. The upper portion of each plinth is molded, the molding consisting of an upper bevel b, a lower bevel b and an intermediate ogeeshnped surface The configuration of the brackets c in side elevation is shown in Fig. 2. Each bracket has on its face two cross V-grooves c and longitudinal grooves or dents 0 extending between these cross-grooves.

[he frieze e is flush with the hacking-strips or panels it, and upon it is the raised panel j, having a continuous concave beveled border in. The lower edge of the frieze is beveled, as at Z and beneath it is the moiding m.

Beneath the n'inntel-l'ionrd is a molding n, which extends around the tops of the brackets 0 also, and below this moldingn is another molded strip 0, which extends between the brackets,

The edges of the [model-board, as well as the firestrips and the outside edges of the groundsf, are molded, as shownf hat I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Potent, is

The design for a mantel, as herein described and shown.

In testimony whereof I nflix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
