A valuable Paint.-Tbe Wilson man.

A Valuable Paint.-The Wilson man
sion. Lexington and Calvert Streets now oc-
cupied by the Metropolitan Savings Bank, has
been renovated and reprinted inside and out,
The effect of the glossy and brilliant paint is
TO give the substantial old edifice a 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-
amel Paint Company, in Raritan, New Jer-
sey. Among the painters II is the favorile OF
all the ready-mixed paints, on account of It's
many good qualities, which go to make up a
highly successful combination. Several Of
the more prominent buildings in this city are
painted with II. Among them are the Ameri-
can aud Sun iron buildings, the Carrollton
Hotel, the Mansion House, Armstrong, Gator
h Co. building Trinity NJ. e. Church South
and the Boys Home. on Calvert street. AL
though some Of these edifces were painted
three or four years ago, they LOOK to-day al
most rs fresh MS if the work had just been
done. This alone is enough TO testify 10 the
quality Of the paint, 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 the oil evaporates after u tims leaving
the lead and coloring matter to dry and fake
of. The New Jersey Enamel Paint is mixed
In such manner, and from such superior in
gradients, that 1t dries quickly without the
use OF dryer" and always retains beauti-
full gloss. On account OF these qualities II
has for some lime been in general use among
painters, and Mr.. H. J. Trnkhaus, the paint
or who has had charge OF repainting the Me-
tropoliian Bank building, already mentioned,
stated TO the reporter that il is the most salts
factory 10 work with, easiest to apply, covers
agreater surface, and is richer aud more ele-
CANT looking after il is applied to a surface,
no matter whatever it be--brick, wood or
irou-than any other mixed paint. II is also
II preservative of the Material to which il is
applied. Mr.. C. p. knight, whose place OF
business is al 90 W. Lombard street, is the
sole general agent Tor the New Jersey Liquid
Enamel Paint, aud has built up a large trade
in this aud other Southern cities lie has
many prominent hanes on the list certifying
10 its value, aud The propre'ors Of many es-
tabishmenls in ordering any painting work
Done make the stipulation that il shall be done
with the Liquid Enamel Paint. 1t has stood
MANY severe tests, among them being its APP
plicaiion 10 vessels which ply in foul waters,
and to buildings which are exposed on high
sites TO the weather. Mr.. liar tman, the pres
iden Of the Metropolitan Savings Bank, is
very much pleased with its effect on his build
ing. The colors used in this instance ARE drab
aud brown aud the rough bricks and smooth
wooden doors and window easements alike
present firm, smooth and glossy appearance.
Mr., knight keeps on hand not only large
assortment Of the cans of paint, which are
numbered according 10 color, but cards bear
ing specimens Of the paint in all the sample
colors, graduated arlisicaIy, may be had on
