PLASTIC PAINTS.

CHEAP, DURABLE AND PROTECTIVE, WEA-
THEIR AM FIRE PROOF.
'INH!s Paint will stand any climate without crack or
I blister, and hardens by exposure, thus making in
time an enamel OF stone, protecting wood from decay
and iron and other metals from and rrosion.
This Paint differs from the soeaed Mineral Paints
OF the day, which principally Ochres and Cays col
ored. and are entirely worthless.
Svers Plastic Paints purely metallic, containing
alum in clay.
OH without the trouble OF ginding and flow under the
brush as eely as the best white lead
These Paints excl all others in body covering pro-
perties, one pound OF which will cover much surface
as two pounds OF white lead.
There are four natural colors, viz Black or Slate,
Brown, Olive and Chocolate.
DIREcToNs-This Paint flows readily under the
brush and It's covering property increased by using
mixed as hicky possible with pure Linseed Oil as
the Paint is the lasting protecting body and the Oil
simply the medium agent in spreading It,.

Dear Sir-Yon ask me for my opinion OF Sver's Mna
and Planning Mil. give you with pleasure my fell and
hearty recommendation OF it preventive of Fire
communicating from chmneys. or from adjoining build
lngs. The PANT which you put my roofs has
become as hard slate, and feel from fire
IN this direction as is possible few weeks after the
roots had been painted, made experiment on two
or three shingles by placing them in the furnace under
the boilers; the result was that the portion uncovered
was entirely consumed while the painted part ap.
pafently sound, though upon examination the wood
was found to be charred the Paint, however, firm,
and but little bstered consider this test
as your Paint can be put to, and under the
stances do not hesitate commend it as an nvalua
Bile preventive against Fire.
