SILVER PLATED WARE.
D McKown respectfully announces to the people
of Wyoming County, that he has made a specialty of
HEAVY SILVER PLATING, lor years. Heavy
plaiting is muck more economical than light. The
more Silver put on the goods, the cheaper it is done
in proportion to the amount of Silver used. Spoons
and Forks, should not be of less than 16 ox plpte—
-36 or 48 ox. would be far more economical. Yet
4ox plate is called a good plate by the trade, and.
poor as it is, but a small portion of all the goods
made coine up to this standard. "Ounce plate," in
platers language, means the number of ounces of
silver, to the gross of tabfe spoons. All other sur
faces are estimated by these. For example, des
serts are estimated at 3-4 ; and tea spoons at 1-2 the
surface of table-spoons. Sixteen ox. plate is 16 ozs.
of fine silver to the gross of table-spoons or dining
forks. 12 ox. to the gross of dessert spoons or forks
and 8 ox- to the gross of tea-spoons. This quality
of plate will cost, on the axerage, twice as much as
4ox and will have four times the amount of silver
on it. Thirty-six ox- plate will cost about three
times as much as 4 ox , and will contain nine times
the amount of silver on it. Thirty-six ox- plate is
the lightest that will allow the engraving on it, of
name or initials, without cutting through unto the
metal beneath. Forty-eight ox plate will cost about
four times as much as 4ox plate, and will contain
12 times the amount of silver. This plate costs
about one-balf as much as solid silverware of ordi
dinary weight, and for every day use will be more
durable than light, solid silverware Most of the
solid silverware is made much too light to be dura
ble in constant use. The terms "double." "treble"
Ac. Ido not use to designate qualities—there being
too much ambiguity in their use .
All goods, made by me, having my name and fig- I
ures denoting the ox, plate, stamped on them, will '
be guaranteed full weight of silver on first quality
of metal on them.
I will plate to order, goods of any thickness of
plating desired, from 4 to 43 oz
Old goc ds, (Ist quality of metal) plated any thick
ness required.

ITS EFFECT LS MIRACULOUS.
It is a perfuct ami wonderful article. A better
dressing than any "oil" or "pomatum" Softens
broth, dry and wiry hair into Beautiful Silken Tress
es. But, aboue all, the (treat wonder is the rapidity
with whioh it restores GRAY HAIR TO ITS ORIQ"
INAL COLOR.
The whitest and worst looking bair resumes its
youthful beauty by its use. It does not dye the
hair, but strikes at the root and fills it with new life
and coloring matter.
The first application will do good ; you will see the
NATURAL COLOR returning every day, and BE
FORE YOU KNOW IT,
the old, gray, discolored appearance of the bair will
be gone, giving place to lustrous, shining and beau
tiful locks.
Ask for Hall's Sicilian Hair Renewer; no other
article is at all like it in effect.
See that each bottle has our private Government

are impervious to water is that they aro lined ;
