for this Judgment. He says: Last win

CHANDELIER FOIL.

One Item in the Stock of Dealers in Bar
and Hotel Supplies.
New York Sun: A few years ago a
New York saloon proprietor hit upon
the Idea Of covering his gas fixtures
over in spring, for the protection from
flies througout the summer, with tin
foil instead of the familiar red or pink
or blue or yellow netting. He sawed
the tin foil wrappers from the tobacco
he used and his friends combined in
manner, n pretty soon he had
foil enough TO them all.
shiny, silvery looking foil made, and 1t
caught the eye and fancy, and in the
course Of a year or two this custom of
covering gas fixtures at this season
with tin foil came to be the n COM
monty observed; and foil covered gas
fixtures, We're to be seSn in many places.
The tin foil manufacturers saw a
this custom. II they began putting
up a tin foil that is especially de-
signed for his use, and hat is called
chandelier foil.
Chandelier foil comes in packages of
one pound each. such package being of
about the length and thickness of an
inch-wide chisel blade. Each package
contains six sheets of foil. each sheet
forty-eight inches long by five inches
wide, or sufficient to cover, with all it's
arms, a good size chandelier; it would
be enough for a number of buckets.
Chandelier foil doesn't cost much and it
is smooth instead of wrin1Sled, as the
tobacco wrappers always were: and be-
ing made in considerable lengths it
can be made to cover better and more
easily than could the tobacco foils. COW
erings of which must, of course, always
be made in patchwork.
And with these advantages chandel-
Ter foil has come now to be a regular
item in the stock of dealers in bar and
hotel supplies.
