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 tnan White Lead. . It is especially adapted for painting iron, as, by virtue o£ a semi-galvanic action, it enters the pores and forms amalgam of the two metals,'vyhich protects the Iron from decay or incrustation. It should-be used instead of Red Lead, which is proved to be destructive to Iron exposed to Salt Water. Adulterations.—Some Paint Grinders have been selling Zinc Paint adulterated with Sulphate of Barytcs, in proportions varying from ten to thirty per cent. No workman can produce good work with Buch 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 Zino is stamped —" Hubbuck, London, Patent." Thomas Hubbuck and son, White Lead, Oil, Paint, and Vabnish Wobks, 24 Limb 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 raaaon is evident — the breath extracts 'the insidious poison from paint, and the lungs draw ia the deadly vapour." MARAVILLA COCOA.—FOB BBEAK fast.—The "Globe" sayß "Various Importers and Manufacturers have attempted to attain a reputation for their prepared Cocoas, but we doubt whether any through success had been achieved until. MSIBBBB. TAYLOR BROTHERS discovered W extraordinary qualities of * MABAVHJA > COCOA. Adapting their perfect system of preparation to this finest of all species of tho Theobroma, they have produced an wicio which supersedes every other Cocoa in the Market. Entire solubility, a'ddicate and a rare concentration of the ments of nutrition, distinguish the mABAYILLA COCOA above all other. For Homospaths and invalids we could not recommend a more agreeable or valuable beverage." Sold in packets only \.WJg Grocers, of whom also may be had T&UMH BROTHERS, Original Homoepathic.
