WHAT ALABASTINE IS.
Alabasllne Is the original and O'.ly durable
wall coating on the Market. It Is entirely
diluent from all kaUoralne pri'ioratlona.
Alabasllne Is made ready for use In white or
twelre beauttlul tints by tha addlilon of cold
water. It Is put up In dry powdered form, In
fire-pound packages, with full directions on
very packace. It takes the place of scaling
alaomlnes, wall paper and paint for wails.
Alabasllne can be used on plaster, brick, wood
r canvass, and a child can brush it en.
WHAT "KAI.SOMINE9" ARB.
Kalsomlnrs are cheap and temporary prepar
ations, manufactured from whiting, chalks,
clays, etc. They are stuck on the walls with
decaying animal glue. Alabaatlne is not a
kalsomlne. It Is a rock-base oenient, which
sets, and It hardens with age. It can be re
coated and re-decorated without haring to
wash and scrape off Its old coats. Beware of a
larre four-ponud packags of light kalsomlne,
sold to dealers for iour pounds and offered to
oustoiucrs as a Are-pound package.
CIIFRCI1ES AND 8CHOOI.HOUSKS.
The Interior walls of churches, schoolhonses
and all public halls should never be coated
with anything but the durable and pure Ala
bastlne. So evident hat this fact become, that
hundreds of tons are used annna'.ly for this
work. The gwiulne Alabastine does not rob
or scale off. It Is cleanly during the long
period of its usefulness. Every owner of a
building should use It. Ask your paint dealer
or druggist for card of tints, and write (or r
