Cans Free——Bottles6d. and 1/- each

The Stain dries in twenty minutes with a brilliant hard surface equal to French Polish with no unpleasant smell. Used in Hospitals, Asylums, Schools, Hotels, &c. Recommended by Professor Wanklyn, the eminent analytical chemist, and many members of the medical profession, for its sanitary properties as a floor covering. Besides very numerous private testimonials, these Stains are being constantly recommended by the principal writers on domestic matters.

Dr Andrew Wilson, inHealth, says:—‘We hope it will be used by all who value health, economy and beauty in their homes. It will cost but a few shillings to stain the floor, where pounds would be spent in carpets, and rooms where it is used can always be kept clean, healthy and bright.’

TheCourt Circularsays:—‘We predict thatJackson’s Combination Varnish-Stainwill become a household word, and that it will be used as a floor covering in every home where health, beauty and cleanliness are appreciated.’

TheLady’s Pictorialsays:—‘You cannot possibly do better than useJackson’s Varnish Stains.They are most excellent.’

TheQueen:—‘Have foundJackson’s Varnish Stainvery good. As its name implies, it requires no varnishing, dries quickly, and gives a beautiful polish.’

These Stains are sold by all high-class Stores throughout the World, and must not be confounded with any of the low-class rubbish, which will only cause disappointment and trouble. Coloured picture labels on all packages. Manufactured only by
