SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 480,908, dated August 16, 1892.

Application filed July 15, 1890.

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that we, FRANK MEsKER and THOMAS O. ARBEGUST, of St. Louis, Missouri, have jointly made a new and useful Improvement in WVindow-Frames, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.

The improvement under consideration has relatiommainly, to the construction of the stiles of window-frames, substantially as is hereinafter set forth and claimed, aided by the annexed drawings, making part of this specification, in which Figure 1 is a front elevation of a portion of a building -'front in which the present improvement is incorporated. Fig. 2 is an enlarged horizontal section on the. line 2 2 of Fig. 1, and Fig. 3 is a similar view on the,

line 3 3 of Fig. 1.

The same letters of reference denote the same parts. V

The building front and the window-frames, saving as they are modified or supplemented by the improvement under considerati0n,are of the usual description.

A A A, Fig. 1, represent a series of windows whose stiles B B are constructed according to the principle of our improvement. The distinguishing feature of the stile is its being made of sheet metal and shaped substantially as is hereinafter set forth. The sheet is bent to inclose, in conjunction with a stud C, the space D for the sash-weights E, and it is shaped to form the inside stop F, for the inner windowsash G, the parting-strip H between the sashes,

Serial No. 358,832. (No model.)

and the outside stop I for the outer windowsashes.

In Fig. 2 the stile is associated with the wall M in the following manner: The sheet metal plate J, corresponding to the plate J is secured at its edge jto the wall M, and preferably by interlocking it with the flange n of the sheet-m etal plate N employed to form the column which is applied to the wall M, substantially as shown; but the plate j may be secured to the wall M in any other suitable manner.

In Fig. 3 the part corresponding to the plate J is mainly in the form of a column J and in the special construction shown in Fig. 3 the part J is not connected at its sides, respectively, immediately with the stiles B B, but is secured to the sheets J 3 J which produces the effect of sub-columns flanking the column J substantially as shown.

We claim- The above-described window-frame, having formed therewith the parting-strips and stops and having connected thereto a sub-columnforming sheet and the latter connected to a column-forming sheet, substantially as set forth.

WVitness our hands this 19th day of June, 1890.
