AND
OBSERVATION
The Electro-Plating Works laid down some yows ago hproved a distinct success, both in the high quality of work expeditiously turned out and In the fact that our ellents are saved considerable delay mid HEAVY EXPENS¿ in sy home tarnished metal ware for réplating,
This VARIABLE AND DAMP CLIMATE will canseilver and electro-platad metal to tornish, therefore wly allow such eyesores, vhen it'in ble to make equal to now at small scat.
The Workshy Plant has resoutly been considneshly sulat with additional facilities for BRONZING, ANTIQUE COPPER, OXYDÍZELLVER and other fancy finishes.
SHIPS FITTINGS.;
It is hardly necessary to dilate on the great conve to shipping firms, in the knowledge that Saloon, Cabis or Deck Fittings, dinter selfate, can be raade equal to now in the shortest time at reasonable cost.
Dinner Services, Ornaments, Shop Rails and Fide all need attention in the course of time, and the benefits of local remedy again sp strongly.
