attractive as it was when new, by decorating your 
walls artistically with Alabastine.

and clean, you can keep it absolutely sanitary by deco- 
rating with Alabastine. 
The dainty Alabastine tints make the most pleasing 
background for pictures, furnishings and furniture, and 
enable you to have the entire house finished in one com- 
plete color scheme so that one room blends into the 
next. All of the rooms will be brighter, more cheerful, 
more artistic. The cost will be less, and your satisfac- 
tion greater. Any one can easily apply Alabastine by 
simply following directions on the package. 
becomes a part of the wall itself. One tint can be applied over another as 
often as desired without the bother or expense necessary where old wall- 
paper or kalsomine has to be first washed or scraped from the walls. This 
cuts the cost of decorating in half. Alabastine decorations will last longer, 
for Alabastine neither fades, rubs off or scales. 
Many of the beautiful color effects that can be produced with Alabas- 
tine are shown in detail in the book ‘‘ Dainty Wall Decorations,” which 
contains complete color plans for any home. This book will be sent you 
postpaid for 10c in coin or U. 8. stamps. It is worth far more to anyone 
intending to decorate. Tint cards mailed free on request.
