Caution to Consumers of Coal Oil.
JDThIs company from this date will not hlUMllo Insurance Oil and jPuro-
lino for the following reasons : Ilisurjuico Oil Tank Co. who claim to own
these Trade Mark brands have not during several years past had any regular source of Oil
supplies but have received Insurance Oil and PltroltllO from sources where they
could buy cheapest without regard to quality. Insurance Oil is simply
any quality of Water White oil. Consumers havo no Kliarautoo of Its Fire
Test or purity. Furolluo is simply any quality of 74 0 Gasoline. As Gasoline
varies great y in purity consumers should only buy under the proper name of 7i Gas-
oline and then be sure the goods arc guaranteed by responsible parties. The quality o(
ItiHUrailCO Oil and Purolilio which has been furnished by Insurance Oil Tank
Co. has almost entirely stopped the demand but we wish (o warn intended purchasers we
Will not 1)0 responsible for these brands. Very Respectfully
