Breckenridge Ccs.l Oil.

In another place III this weeks issue
will be found an advertisement Of Coal Oil,
sold by G.. W. Curtis at St. Louis, Mo. This
Oil is used for Illuminating and Lubrricatine
purposes, and answers well the purposes for
which it is manufactured. From careful
analysis it is found that a gallon Of Sperm oil
will burn so hours, one Of Lard oil &; hours
and one of Whale oil IS hours, while a gallon
Of Breckenridge Refined Illuminating Oil will
burn ITO hours with an equal volume or in
tensity of light; this is in evidence Of the
economy of the breckenridge oil. It will not
explode, for, you may place quantity in a
vessel and apply alighted match to it and it
will not ignite. It will not CONCEAL in any
climate, and, for this reason must take we'll in
our Northern latitude, and will sooner or later
take the place of all illuminators It is equal
or next to the Street gas in brilliancy, and far
more economical; one lamp giving, with one
small wick, light equal to six Sperm candles
The Lubricating Oil cleanses well machinery,
and IS far more economical and better for all
kinds Of machinery than any other lubricator
Other products are made by this Co.., and
will soon be introduced for the appreciation Of
the public. The Breckenridge Coal Tract COW
ers 1000 acres Of Land, and it is believed
That the supply of coal is inexhaustible.
