The Stain in weathering does not become shabby like paint; but the surfaces assume weather beaten grays, very soft and harmonious, and varying slightly according to the original hue.  The Stain may be renewed at any time with little trouble or expense, as the natural hues which nature gives in combination with the stain are allowed to stay.

  Houses treated with these Stains may be seen at almost any of the
  seaside and suburban resorts of NEW ENGLAND, and on the
  NEW JERSEY and LONG ISLAND COASTS.

  FOR ARTISTIC COLORING EFFECTS THEY ARE FAR SUPERIOR
  TO PAINT, WHILE THEIR PRESERVATIVE POWER
  MAKES THEM DOUBLY VALUABLE.

  Pumpelly, was read before the Newport Sanitary Protective Society,
  Jan. 12, 1884.]

  PARTS IN 1,000,000

Total Residue                      44.6
Silica                             11.5
Iron and Alumina                    0.7
Lime                               10.5
Magnesia                            1.5
Chlorine                            4.6
Ammonia                             0.06
Albumoid Ammonia                    0.06

  The above analysis shows a total residue of about 2.6 grains in one
  gallon of 231 cubic inches.

The object of the above analysis is to show the great purity of this water.  Its curative properties cannot be determined by a chemical analysis.  No combination of the above-mentioned minerals alone would produce the same effects.  The Spring possesses a peculiarity and an individuality of its own which no one ever has been able to explain.  It is one of Nature’s remedies.  Its medicinal effects can only be determined by a thorough trial.
