HALL'S DISTEMPER

THE KING OF WATER PAINTS.

The selentile ideal of a wall covering is one that is not only beautiful, but easy to keep clean, germ proof, absolutely fast in colour, and when applied a thorough - disinfectant. No-wall covering conforms so closely to these requirements as Hall's Sanitary Washable Distemper which has the important advant agos of being most economical and durable.

Hall's Distemper la applied with a whitewash brush, saving much in the costs of labour.

It sets hari, kills microbes and verrain, and disinfecta.

It is made in a wide range of 70 colours, including rich dark as well as light tints; - The colours never fade, enabling faralture and pictures to be moved about a room. without showing discoloured wala. -

Hall's Distemper decoration may be washed by lightly sponging-down with clean tepid water. It remains clean, swood and fresh for years.
