OIL and LAMP PHENOMENA, and NO PUFF.—CLARK and CO., oil refiners by chemical process, 261, Strand, and 16, Picket-street, sell their UNEQUALLED CLARIFIED OIL, at 4s. 10d. per gallon, suitable for every description of lamp in present use. Four gallons go as far as five gallons of solar or other common oils, and therefore their Clarified Oil is cheapest. Lamps burning it require no cleaning, on account of its purity. It produces a splendid light, without smoke, if their fire-proof smoke consuming glasses are used; but burns quite equal to sperm with the common glasses. Oil lamps, best workmanship and newest style, at manufacturer’s prices: for instance, excellent table lamps, 21s., usually 38s.; Cambridge reading or writing lamps, superior, 11s. 9d., usually 21s.; hall lamps from 2s. 9d.; very superb drawing and dining room lamps, 45s. 9d., usually 84s.; beautiful brass and real bronze reading lamps, 15s. 9d., usually 30s. These are only specimens of prices. Chandelier designs to be seen in great variety. Clarified oil, 4s. 10d. imperial gallon; fire-proof chimneys, 1s. only.—CLARK and CO., 16, Pickett-street, or 261, Strand, three doors from the stone pillars, opposite St. Clement’s Church, and not a corner shop. To prevent impositions, observe, strictly, Clark and Co. stamped on the glasses, and sealed on the oil corks. Books of designs of lamps (for every use) forwarded free to any part of the kingdom.
