PROTECT YOUH BUILDINGS. 



Which may be done with one fourth the usual ex- 

 pense, bg using our 



Patent Slate Paint. 



(Fifteen Years Established.) 

 MIXED HEADY FOR USE. 

 Fire-proof, Water-proof, Durable, Eco- 

 nomical and Ornamental. 



A roof may be covered with a very cheap shingle, 

 and by application of this slate made to last from SO 

 to 25 yearn. 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 Re-shingling. 



The expense of slating new shingles is onlv about 

 the cost of simply laving them. The paint is fire- 

 proof against f parks or flying, embers, as may be 

 easily tested by anyone. 



It Stops Every Leak, 



and for tin or iron has no equal, as it expauds by 

 heat, contracts by cold, never cracks nor scales. 

 Roots covered with Tar Sheathing Felt can he mada 

 water-tight at a small expense, and preserved for 

 many years. 

 This Slate Paint is 



EXTREMELY CHEAP. • 



Two gallons will cover a hundred square feet of shin- 

 gle 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 al- 

 though tbe paint has a heavy body it is easily applied 

 with a brush. I 



No Tar is Used in this Composition 



thprpfore it neither cracks in winter, nor runs in 

 summer. 



On aecayed shingles it fills up the holes and pores 

 and gives a new substantial roof that will last io r 

 years. Curled or warped shingles it brings to their 

 places, and keeps them there. It tills up all holes in 

 felt roofs, stops the leaks, and although a slow dryer, 

 rain does not affect it in a few hours after applying. 

 As nearly all paints that are black contain tar, be 

 sure you obtain our genuine article, which, for shin- 

 gle roofs, is 



CHOCOLATE COLOR, 



when first applied, changing in about a month to a 

 uniform slate color, and is, to all intents and purpo- 

 ses, slate On 



TIN ROOFS 

 our red color is usually preferred, as one coat is equal 

 to five of any ordinary paint. For 



BRICK WALLy 

 Our bright red is the only reliable Slate Paint ever 

 introduced that will effectually prevent dampness 

 1 from penetrating and discoloring 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
