Caution to Consumers of Coal Oil.
CSTThis company from this date will not handle Insurance Oil and Puro-
lino for the following reasons: Iiisurnnco Ojjl 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 Purollno from sources where they
could buy cheapest without regard to quality. Iiitmranco Oil is simply
any quality of Water White oil. Consumers have no jtiarautoo of its Kire
Test or purity. Purollno is slmpiy any quality of 74 Gasoline. As Gasoline
varies greatly in purity consumers should only buy under the proper name of 74 0 GnS-
oltliOt and then be sure the goods are guaranteed by responsible parties. The quality ol
Insurance Oil and Purollno which has .been furnished by Insurance OH Tank
Co. has almost entirely stopped the demand but we wish to warn intended purchasers we
Will not ho responsible for these brands. Very Respectfully
