KEROSENE OIL Should be used by Consumers in preference to any »i.ner Petroleum Oil. Ist. It is safe, having a, lire tost of nover less than 125" Fahrenheit. 2nd. It is finished by distillation* without treatment ■with acids and alkalies as the last process. It is double distilled for the purpose of removing the acids and alkalies used in the manufacture of all Petroleum Oils, but which cannot be removed except by their process, 3rd. The Downer Oil being chemically pure, burns with, more brilliancy of llame, consuming less oil for a given amount of light. It less trouble, because the Lamps require less frequent Ailing, and the wick less frequent trimming. 4th. Although the Downer Oil costs more per gallon than other oils, it is, in the end, cheaper for tho. con- Burner, because it gives a greater amount of light with less consumption of oil. Your grocer may toll you he has on sale an oil in quality equal to Downer Oil. Don't believe this story. Downer Oil is quoted and known all over the world as the highest standard brand. This reputation has been achieved by its having been made by a better process and more costly than others, which process has been adhered to from tho beginning, without re gard to expense. £ST N.B.— » D O W N E R'S KEROS ENE ■ 1.
