WI OiL.-This Oil, for BRILL ancy, durability,
and purity light, and for lubricating pnrpo-
ses, whether applied to the delicate works of a
watch or the most ponderous machinery, SURPRISES
any oil now known. y =
Ii Is warranted not to gum, being entirely de-
prived of that substance, which so seriously i'm
pedes the rapid movement of all kinds of machine
ry; and for burning it is cheaper and better
than any oleaginous substance now in use.
While it affords light superior to gas or cam
phene, it is also free from the dan gerous posive
quality of the latter, being solely sperm oil
purified. -a. - ,t
So pure is this oil that it will not freeze at an
degree of cold known within the limits of the
United States; having thereby in this, as in every
other particular, an advantage the best sperm
oil as now used.
After devoting many years in experimenting
with the various oils, for the purpose of oyercom
ing their impurities as at present fabricated the
undersigned assures the public that he has cue
ceeded in producing the ''ne plus ultra" of oils.
He offers it superior to any known oil in the
world for the purposes of burning and lnbricatng
and invokes the scientific of all countries to test
it and pronounce their opinion, satisfied that all
will agree that it is the finest oil ever offered for
sale. WILLIAM d. TOWNSEND, Phila.
