CELEBRATED FOR WRITING WITH STEEL PENS.
STEPHENS" ORIGINAL BLUE BLACK WRITING
FLUID, also his superior FLUID BLACK INK.
From habit and custom numerous persons prefer the black,
dye colours for the purposes of writing. The BLUE BLACK,
or ORIGINAL WRITING FLUID, invented by me, contains
combinations calculated to insure a higher degree of perma-
nence with greater facilities of writing, more especiall3(with
Steel Pens, than can ever be obtained by the bl dye co-
lours, or common ink. The numerous testim als I have
received from those who have tried it in hot mates, and on
sea voyages, and various other situations, ere the incon-
veniences and deteriorations of com on • are found chiefly
to prevail, abundantly prove its g superiority. Those
who object to any thing deviating appearance from com-
mon Black Ink, will find in the Fluid Black, prepared by me,
a great improvement over other Black Inks in the facility of
writing with Steel Pens, whilst in every other respect it is of
the best possible quality, being prepared upon the best and
most accurate principles. As it is prepared with the fullest
proportions of colouring matter, it may be diluted by those
who do not require ink of the best quality.
N.B.—The various compositions of Black Ink, which have
been advertised so extensively of late as new compositions,
are essentially nothing but common Black Ink, with a new
name only.

-^*** Atrial of either of the above compositions will demon-
strate their general superiority.
