CANDLES.—If you do not want your candles
exclusively for show, but with pleasantness of appearance
require excellence of burning, buy "PRICE'S GOLD MEDAL
PALMITINE," or their " SHERWOOD PALMITINE," or their
good old-fashioned "BELMONT SPERM," or "BELMONT
WAR," (or their "BEST," "No. 2," "N 0.3," or "BATTERSEA "
COMPOSITE, in preference to the finest and most transparent
Paraffine candles. But if you must have the extreme trans-
parency of pure Paraffin, "PRICE'S PARAFFINE" or their
"BELMONTINE" will give it to you in perfection, and at a more
moderate price than is usually charged for any other really first-
class Paraffine Candles.
The new toilet soap "PRICE'S SOLIDIFIED GLYCERINE,"
containing half its weight of their concentrated distilled Glyce-
rine, should be in general use in every house before the winter
comes on, because of its admirable effects in preventing chap-
ping of the hands and face. In every house there ought also to
be one of the sealed bottles of their concentrated Distilled Gly-
cerine, known everywhere as "PRICE'S GLYCERINE," and
prescribed by the most eminent medical men abroad as well as at
home, as the one only Glycerine for medicinal use whether ex-
ternally or internally.
PRICE'S FANCY SOAPS of the different sorts usually made
are excellent, and command a constantly increasing sale. The
"Solidified Glycerine" spoken of above is, however, the one fancy
soap to use.
"PRICE'S NEW PATENT NIGHT LIGHTS," for burning
in the wide glasses are believed to be the very best Night Lights
made. "PRICE'S CHILDS' NIGHT LIGHTS," for burning
without glasses, and their different sorts of "CHAMBER CAN-
DLES" are so well known, and so generally used and appre-
ciated, as not to need any special notice here.
