Having secured the state RIGHT OF THE PATENT MICA ROOFING, We are now prepared to supply it in any quantity, or to apply it to Roofs. The MICA ROOFING is adapted to build ings of every description, and can bo ap plied to Steep or Flat Roofs, or over old Shingle Roofs, without removing the shin gles. We recommend its use on Factories, Foundries, Store Houses, Cotton Sheds, Railroad Depots and npon all buildings where steam is used, and a Fire Proof re quired. It costs about ono-half the price of Tin. It is cheap, durable, and is easily and quiekly applied. The upper surface of the Roofing is protected from the action of the weather, by its covering of Ground Mica, which is pressed into the water proof com position, making a hard surface of stone, beautiful in appearance, and a sure protec tion against fire. We shall also keep constantly on hand a upply of INDIA-RUBBER ROOFING PAINT, trhich is the best coating that can bo used for Tin Roofing. Leaky Tin Roofs can be readily repaired, so as to last many years, at a trifling cost, which would in many cases save the expense of anew Roof.
