The proprietor OF this OIL has for several years
felt the necessity OF providing for and presenting

I'D. Because 1t is the most BRILLIANT liquid H.
uminator now known
BID, Because 1t is more economical, In the long
run, than any of the dangerous oils and fluids
now In too common use.

therefore economical, giving the greatest possl-

er. Its present standard OF SAFETY AND
BRILLIANCY will always be malntained,-fo
upon this the proprietor depends for sustaining
the high reputation the STELLAR OIL now
