A valuable Paint.-The Wilson man.
sion, Lexington and Calvert streets, now o.
cup'ed by the Metropolitan Savings Bank, has
been renovated aud repainted inside and out
The effect of the glossy and brilliant paint is
to give the substantial old edihce new and
healthier appearance. A great deal of this
is owing, undoubtedly, 10 the quality Of the
paint used. Inquiry by reporter led to the
disclosure by the painters who were at the
time engaged on the inside of the building,
that the paint used was the LIQUID Enamel
Paint, manufactured by the New Jersey En-
amcl Paint Company, in Rari,an, New Jer-
sey. Among the painters il is the hvorito OF
ali the ready-mixed paints, on account of its
many good qualities, which 20 10 make up a
highly successful combination. Several of
the more prominent buildings in this city are
painted with IL. Among them IRE the Ameri-
can and Snn iron buildings, the Cnrrollton
Hotel, the Mansion House, Armstrong, Gator
h Co.'s building, Trinity VI. Il Church South
and the Boys Home on Calvert street. AL
though some of these ediicos were painted
three or four years ago, they LOOK to-day III
most rs fresh MS II the work had Just been
done. This alone is enough To testify to The
quality Of the paiut, which is sold in cans
ready mixed. Il shows that the oil and lead
are mixed from chemically scientific point
OF view In many paints the mixture Is such
that tho oil evnpOralrs after u time, leaving

oil. The New Jersey Enamel Paint Ia m,ed
in such II manner, and from such snpcrinr in
gradients, that 1t dries quickly without the
use OF dryer" and always retains beauti- |
full gloss. On account Of these qualities IL
has Tor some time been in general use among |
painters, and Mr.. II. J. Trinkhans, the paint

many prominent names on the list certifying
10 its value, aud the proprie,ors Of many es-
Adjustments in ordering any painting work
done make the stipulation that it shall be done
with the Liquid Enamel Paint. 1t has stood
many severe tests, among them being its APP
plicaiion to vessels which ply in foul waters,
and to buildings which are exposed on high
sites to the weather. Mr.. Hartman, the pres
ideni OF the Metropolitan Savings Bank, is
very much pleased with It's effect on his build
ing. The coors used in this instance are drab
and brown, and the rough bricks and smooth
wooden doors and window easements alike
present firm, smooth aud glossy appearance.

We have used the Liquid Enamel Paint to
our entire satisfaction, and recommend the
use OF IL to the people of this county for its
very superior qunlities-durability, gloss and
cheapness ,-ED. SENTINEL
