" NEW KOCHELLE."— The wonderful Raspberry. Send for 

 a circular. S. P. CARPENTER, New Rochelle, N. Y. mch2 



A roof may be covered with a verj- cheap shingle, and by appli- 

 cation of this slate be made to last from 20 to 25 years. Old 

 roofs can be patched and coated, looking much better and lasting 

 longer than new shingles without the slate, for 



One-third the Cost of Ke-shingling. 



The expense of slating new shingles is only about the cost of 

 simply laying them. The paint is fire- proof against sparks or 

 flying embers, as may be easily tested by any one. 



IT STOPS EVERY LEAK, 

 and for tin or iron has no equal, as it expands by heat, contracts by 

 cold, and never cracks nor scales. Roofs covered with Tar 

 Sheathing Felt can be made water-tight at a small expense, and 

 preserved for many years. 



This Slate Paint is 



EXTBEMELY CHEAP. 

 Two gallons will cover a nundred square feet of shingle roof, while 

 on tin, iron, felt, matched boards, or any smooth surface, from two 

 quarts to one gallon are required to 100 square feet of surface, and 

 although the paint has a heavy body it is easily applied with a brush. 



JSTo Tar is used in this Composition, 

 therefore it neither cracks in Winter, nor runs in Summer. 



On decayed shingles, it fills up the holes and pores, and gives a 

 new substantial roof that will last for years. Curled or 

 WARPED shingles it brings to their places, and keeps them there. It 

 fills up all holes in felt roofs, stops the leaks — and although a 

 slow dryer, rain does not affect it a few hours after applying. As 

 nearly all paints that are black contain tar, be sure you obtain our 

 genuine article, which (for shingle roofs) is 



CHOCOLATE COLOR, 

 when first applied, changing in about a month to a uniform slate 

 color, and is, to all intents and purposes slate. On 



TIN ROOFS 

 our red color is usually preferred, as one coat is equal to five of 

 any ordinary paint. For 



BRICK WALLS 

 Our bright red is the only reliable Slate Paint ever introduced 

 that will efiectually prevent dampness from penetrating and discolor- 

 ing the plaster. 



These paints are also largely used on out-houses and fences, or as 

 a priming coat on fine buildings. 



Our only colors are Chocolate, Red, Bright Red, and 

 Orange.
