BROOKLYN, N. Y., Feb. 15, 1897.

DEAR SIR: The "Helvetia" has had nothing but "Navalite" on in the way of "spar" since 1893, because it gives entire satisfaction. Anything which does that I stick to. Have tried every spar that has come along during that period, but none came up to the "Navalite."

Yours,

M. F. BUCKLEY,

Master Steam Yacht" Helvetia."

STEAM YACHT "JOSEPHINE,'
WILMINGTON, Feb. 2, 1897.

MR. GEO. W. LYON, MARINE DEPARTMENT,

CHICAGO VARNISH CO., NEW YORK.

DEAR SIR: -Your favor 27th ultimo at hand, referring to which will say that when the "Josephine" leaves the Harlan & Hollingsworth Company's hands she will have all her bright work - mahogany houses, teak rails, etc.,-covered with "Navalite." This, I think, will round out and complete the improvements to the "Josephine" done here under my supervision, and answers fully your inquiry as to what I think of it.

Very truly yours,

FREDERICK C. MILLER,

Master.

We take great pleasure in recommending."Navalite" varnish for its durability and lustre-retaining qualities. We are using it in all our departments, and it has, so far, given, thorough satisfaction.
