HUBBUCK'S PATENT WHITE ZINO PAINT is the most durable and beautiful paint known, docs 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 L'on from decay or incrustation. It should be used instead of Red Lead, which ia proved to be destructive to Iron exposed to Salt Water. Adulterations.—Some Paiat Grinders have been selling Zinc 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 who have obtained the Patent White Zinc Paint from grinders who have not adulterated it, will never willingly use any other Paint for their best work. Each Cask of Pure White Zinc is stamped — "Hubbuck, London, 'Patent." Thomas Hubbuck and son, White Lead, Oil, Paint, and Varnish Limb Street. " For public schools, and all rooms occupied by children there will now lie w> excuse for using poisonous paints. . Parents have remarked that their children on returning from the country to newly-painjfeeahoiws have Buffered in health. The reason is evident—the breath extracts the ihadioas poison from paint, and the lungs draw in the deadly vapour."
