The effect of the glossy and brilliant paint is

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 1t is the favorite OF
all the ready-mixed paints, on account of its
many good qualities, which go 10 make up a
highly successful combination. Several of

can and Sun iron buildings, the Carrollton
Hotel, the Mansion House, Armstrong, Gator
& Co.'S building, Trinity NJ. E. Church South
aud the Boys Home on Calvert street. AL
though some of these edi6ces were painted
three or four years ago, they look to-day al-
most as fresh us IL the work had just been
done This alone is enough to testify 10 the
! quality Of the paiut, which is sold 10 cans,
| ready mixed. Il shows that the oil and lead
are mixed from II chemically scientific point
of view. Ia many paints the mixture is such
that the oil evapora,es after time, leaving
the lead and coloring matter to dry and fake
of. The New Jersey Enamel Paint is miyed
in such manner, aud from such superior in
gradients, ,hst II dries quickly without the
use Of "dr,er," and always retains beauti-
full gloss. On account of these qualities 1t
has for some Time been in general use among
painters, and Mr.. H. J. Trinkhaus, the paint
er who has had charge OF repainting the Me-
tropoliian Bank building, already mentioned,
stated 10 the reporter that 1t is the most salts
factory TO work with, easiest to apply, covers
agreater surface, and is richer aud more ele-
giant looking after il is applied to surface,
no matter whatever il be--brick, wood or
irou-than any other mixed paint. II is also
u preservative OF the ma terial to which il is
applied. Mr.. C. p. knight, whose place OF
business is AT 90 W. Lombard street, is the
sole general agent for the New Jersey Liquid
Enamel Paint, aud has built up large trade
in this and other Southern cities. He has
many prominent names on the list certifying
TO its value, and the proprie,ors OF many es-
Establishments in ordering any painting work
done make the stipulation that il shall be done

many severe tests, among them being its APP
plication 10 vessels which ply in foul waters,
aud TO buildings which are exposed on high
sites to the weather. Mr.. Hartman, the pres
ideui Of the Metropolitan Savings Bank, is
very much pleased with its effect on his build
ing. The colors used in this instance are drab
and brown, and the rough bricks aud smooth
wooden doors and window easements alike
present 6rm, smooth and glossy appearance.
