HUBBUCK'S PATENT WHITE ZINO PAINT is the most durable and beautiful paint known, does not stain or discolour with the atmosphere of large towns, and by their process, which is patented, is cheaper than White Lead. It is especially adapted for painting iron, as, by virtue of a semi-galvanic action, it enters the pores and forms amalgam of the two metals, which protects the lion from decay or incrustation* It should be used instead of Red Lead, whicbla proved to be destructive to Iron exposed to Salt Water. Adultebations.—Some Paint Grinders have been selling Zifio Paint adulterated with Sulphate of Barytes, in proportions varying from ten to thirty per cent. No workman can produce good work with such material. Those whohaveobteined the Patent White Zinc Paint from griadera who have not adulterated it, will never willingly use any other Paint for their best ! work. Each Cask of Pure White Zinc is I stamped — "Hubbuck, London, Patent." Thomas Hubbuck and son, White Lead, Oil, Paint, and Vabnish Wobsb, 24 Lr__ Stbeet. " For public schools, and all rooms occupied by children there will now be no excuse for using poisonous paints. Parents have remarked that their children on returning from the country to newly-painted houses have suffered in health. The reason is evident—the breath extracts the insidious poison from paint, and the lungs draw in the deadly vapour." MARAVILLA COCOA.—FOB BBEAK fast.—The "Globe" says "VariotH Importers and Manufacturers have attempted to attain a reputation far" .their' prepared Cocoas, but we doubt whether any thorough success had been achieved until MBSSBB. TAYLOR BROTHERS discovered the extraordinary qualities of ' MARAVILLA ' COCOA. Adapting their perfect system of preparation to this finest of all species of the Theobroma, they have produced an article which supersedes every other Cocoa in the Market. Entire solubility, a delicate aroma, and a rare concentration of the purest elements of nutrition, distinguish the MAKA* VILLA COCOA above all othijr. For Hoincepaths and invalids we could not recommend a more agreeable, or Valuable beverage." Sold in packets only by all Grocers, of whom also may be had TAYLOR BROTHERS, Original Homcepathic Oocoa and Soluble' Chocolate. Steam __il_y--Bri-k Lane, London.
