ALBO-CARBOIT, 



A SUBSTITUTE FOR NAP1HAL1NK 



I have had many enquiries where and how this preservative may be obtained, 

 as it is very much cheaper than Napthaline, and is said to be equally effective 

 It not being an article of common sale, I have procured a quantity, and will; 

 supply any one wanting it at 6d. for 8 ounces, post free.
