BEAUTY IS ONLY ONE OF ITS MANY MERITS.

HALL'S

SANITARY DISTEMPER

WASHABLE

HAS THESE GREAT ADVANTAGES IN ADDITION :::

It is made in a wide range of 70 colours, in

elading rich dark as well as light shades.

It contains no lead, therefore ceilings couted with white or tinted Hall's Distemper do not turn black with sulphur.

It sets the hardest of any article yet offered,

and neither cracks, blisters, nor peels off.

It is washable three weeks after being applied.

It is a strong disinfectant and should be used in

all fever or infectious cases as recommended by the medical faculty.

It is non-poisonous and clean in working.

It destroys fleus, bugs, and other objectionable

insects.

Many of the colours will stand on new plaster

walls.

"The advantages of paing a paint which contains an effective microbe destroyer are obrious. A distinct advantage is the readiness with which it may be cleaned without injuring it."
