"KEATING’S POWDER” destroys BUGS, FLEAS, MOTHS, BEETLES, and all other insects, whilst quite harmless to domestic animals. In exterminating Beetles the success of this powder is extraordinary. It is perfectly clean in application. See the article you purchase is “ KEATING'S,” i.e., with the signature THOMAS KEATING on each tin, as imitations are noxious and ineffectual. Sold in tins, 6d. and Is each, by all chemists.— Advt.
