Housefurnishing Department, on the
fifth floor. Every modern house
keeper knows how very essential it
is to have on hand polish of this
character-one that is suited for the
polishing of all metals. Putt prep
arations are pre-eminently the best
and most successful ever placed
upon the market. They have been
handled by us for several years with
uniformly good results. They are
scientifically and correctly COM
pounded of the very best oils, and
guaranteed to produce quickly and
easily a brilliant and lasting polish
on any metal gold, Silver, copper,
brass, nickel, etc. The price is very
reasonable consistent with the use
of high-grade materials, and one
can of Putt Polish will outlast and
do better work than twice the
amount of cheaper and adulterated
polishes.
Sample free.
