MR. GEO. W. LYON, MARINE DEPARTMENT,
CHICAGO VARNISH CO., NEW YORK.

DEAR SIR: :- In reply to yours of the 1st inst., would say that the "Constellation's " woodwork never looked better than when covered with "Navalite." I have used it for the past three years, so she has looked her best during that period. I consider "Navalite" to be the best "spar" varnish in to-day's market.

Yours truly,

N. B. WATSON,

Master Schooner Yacht "Constellation."

DEAR SIR: Your favor of the 4th is received, and in reply would say I have used the "Navalite" varnish for the past two seasons, and have found it most excellent for yacht work. It is very durable, and will stand salt water better than anything else in this line that has come to my attention.

Yours truly,

DEAR SIR:- I have used your "Navalite" spar varnish for the past three years, and consider it the best in the market to-day.

Respectfully,

HARRY P. HAFF,

Master Sloop Yacht "Wasp."

DEAR SIR:-"Navalite" is the best "spar" varnish I ever used. If there is any make of "spar" that I have not tried, it has come on the market since Jan. 1, 1897. None dries so quickly, lasts as long, or gives such a beautiful finish as "Navalite."

Yours,

CHRIS. BLUNK,

Master Steam Yacht "Iduna."

It is the best "spar" I ever

Yours,

CLAYTON HAFF,

Master.
