ENGLISH SHINGLE STAINS 



The average stain "will not hold its color at the seaside; 

 ours win. This is perhaps the hardest test for a stain. 

 Ours gives no offensive odor, will not wa.sh off nor turn 

 black. It gives a wealth of artistic beauty at half the 

 cost of paint. Samples and particulars on request.
