Special Notices.

The Standard Paint Company of 59 Maiden lane. New York, whose
building paper prepared with the celebrated P, Sc B, compound has beeu
favorably known in fcbe market for years, announce placing in fche markefc
two uew grades of building paper; one, whose brade mark is the "Universal,"
is prepared with their P. Sc B, compound, is thoroughly waberproof, acid,
alkali and gas proof, in all respecbs superior to tbeordiuary building papers
in the market, A special feature, and the oue which bas induced bhe
manufacturers to give ifc the name of the "Universal" iu addition to its
merit as a building paper, is that they have put it in the market afc a lower
price tban any buUding paper of any description, for which reason they
feel certain that ifc is bound to become the universal buUding paper.
The ofcher new brand is pub inbo the markefc under fche fcrade mark of the
" Giant" buildiug paper. This paper is completely saturated with water¬
proof, acid and alkali proof and insulating material, aud the work is so
thoroughly done thafc the paper can be cut iu any way and torn into bits
and no particle of it wUl absorb moisture. Every fibre is thoroughly im¬
pregnated, and tbere has never been a similar paper manufactured before.
The paper is more waterproof thau leather, and wbere the best article tbat
it is possible to make is wanted the " Giant" paper is sure to be used. The
attention of Hrchitects and builders is especiaUy caUed to these papers, and
they are urged to send for sainples.

tion of architects and real estate owners tothe excellence of their facilities
