duce perfectly the finest encaustic and ceramic tiling at only

with sponge or damp cloth. Enametile is water-proof, dust-proof, 
vermin-proof. Enametile neither cracks, breaks nor loosens. 
Enametile is x20 only as beautiful in design and coloring as the most 
expensive tiles, but its highly enameled surface being embossed, 
throws its rich, mellow tints into high relief, and produces an effect 
which cannot be achieved with any other form of tiling or any other 
wall-covering. Emametile combines this highly artistic effect with 
great durability. *
