Sincenickel work has become, and is likely to remain, so important an element in stove or other household ornamentation, the preservation of its color and brightness is n i|ucstiun of great practical importance. With “Lustro” the labor is of small account and the expense is insignificant. Allman' ufacturers, all dealers and housekeepers will want it as soon as its qualities are.known, especially as it is as good an article for clean ing silver and plated ware as has ever been introduced. Housekeepers have for along time felt the want of an article which would enable them to clean and polish nickel plating, brass, silver and silver-plated ware without the labor attending the use of many to called polishing preparations now in the market. After patient research and many chemical ex- periraents the Lustro Company have at last produced an article which will do the work to perfection, and with scarcely any outlay of labor. We stake our world-wide rejmta-] tion on the excellence of this preparation, and as a guarantee, will say, that if it will] not perform what we claim for it. the pur chase money will be refunded. Ask you] grocer for it. if he cannot supply you, o: receipt of 25 cents, we will send you asampl bottle, postage paid. Lustro Company, 171 Dunne s'reet, New York City, II. K. it P. B.
