A Valuable Paint.-The Wilson man
sion, Lexington and Calvert Streets now oe-
cupled 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
heal'hler appearance. A great deal of this
is owing, undoubtedly, 10 the quality Of the
paint used. Inquiry by a reporter led to the
disclosure b. the painters who were ut the
time engaged on the inside Of the bnilding,
that the paint used was the Liquid Enamel
Paint, manufactured by The New Jersey En-
amel Paint Company, ia aarilan, New Jer-
sey. Among the painters it is the favorits Of
all the ready-mixed paints, on account of its
many good qualities, which go 10 make up
highly successful combination. Several of
the more prominent buildings 10 this city are
painted with it Among them are The Ameri-
can aud Sun iron buildings the Carrollton
Hotel, The Mansion House, Armstrong, Gator
Il Co.'s building, Trinity N. 4. Church South
and the Boys Home. on Calvert street. Al
though some of these edi6ces were painted
three or tour years ago, they look to-day al
most as fresh MS if the work had just been
done This alone is enough TO testify 10 the
quality OF tie paioi, which is sold in cans,
ready mixed. 4 shows that the oil and lead
are mixed from chemically scientific point
OF view Ia many paints the mixture is such
that the oil evuporates after time, leaving
the lead and coloring matter 10 dry and fake
of. The New Jersey Enamel Paint Is miyed
in such a manner, and from such superior in
.redients, that II dries quickly without the
use OF "dr! er, and always retains a. beauli-
full gloss. On account OF these qualities It
has for some time been 10 general use among
painters, and Mr. II. j. Trnkhaus, the paint
err who has had charge OF repainting the Me-
rropoilan Bank building, already mentioned,
stated 10 the reporter that it is the most salts
factory 10 work with, easiest TO apply, covers
II greater surface, and IL richer aud more ee-
giant looking after IL isnpplied to surface.
no matter whatever il be-brick, wood or
iron-iban any other mixed paint II is also
preventative Of the material TO which IL is
applied Mr. G. P. knight, whose place OF
business is at 80 W. Lombard street, is the
sole general agent Tor the New Jersey Liquid
Enamel Paint, and has built up large trade
10 this aud other Southern cities. He has
many prominent names on the list certifying
TO It's value, aud HE proprieiors OF many es-
Establishments 10 ordering any painting work
zone make The stipulation that II shall be done
with the Liquid Enamel Paint. II has stood
many seytie esis, among them being it's APP
plcaion 10 vessels which ply in foul waters,
and TO buildings which are exposed on high
sites 10 The weather. Mr.. Hartman, the pres
ilenl Of The Metropolitan Savings Bank, is
very much pleased with It's effect on bis build
ing The colors used in this instance are drab
and brown, and the rough bricks and smooth
wooden doors and window easements alike
present firm, smooth and glossy appearance.
