As usunl, Messrs.

pnrticulnrly superior grade of water-soluble iiigrosiiic (which stniids perfectly irt n 30% solutiori) ~ v i l l iippeiil especially to all who arc iiitercstcd in the rtiiitiuf:ic- turc of Quick I31iick ii i it l siiiiiliir products.
Tltcre is n splettclid rntige of wood stiiitis iii till the popular slindcs (iis ivell iis in those less well knowii) and these can be supplied suitnlilc for sticli din’creiit

As regards the Jiar~i~lcss edible colours, niiotlrcr grcnt feature of this firin’s iictivitics, it is obviously otily possiblc to show t i conipiirntively sniiill section, but the spccinl rcquircrt~ct~ts of :ill sections of the trndc have beeti cnrcfully stutlicil rind ii11 rciisonnble requirements can be met.
Another rnttge of dycs in wliicl~ tlicrc is iiti eiior- tiious rniige to clioosc frotii is thiit for wool iiiitl silk,. nnd there is also n sclcction of direct dycs for cotton, Tlicre is n coniplctc range of tlycs soluble in wises, fnts, oils, ctc., niitl ill this cotiiicsiou nictitiott should he nindc of tlic 1)ciiutifirl displiiy of colonrcd cnntlle~l \rI~jch is on vicw, itidiciitittg the greitt progress which hns been tnatlc iti this direction. ‘l’licre :ire very ninny otlicr purposes for wliicli AIessrs. \\Tilliiinis’ products nrc npplicnblc, iiotnI>ly sorips (toilet iuid household), artificial flowers, piper, sc:ilitig wax, inks (writing, priiitiiig iitid endorsing), I i i k ~ - t i ~ ~ k i i ~ g , . coir yiirti, rafiia, wicker, etc., iind thc whole giitiiut. of spcciiilitics clcniiitidctl by tlic toilet, niid cositictic industries.
