Note to my Customers and tie Public in the matter of Kerodne Oil and its safety or otherwise. — —o— — ; : - /"I TJSTOMEES who use the higher priced oils, which I have always recom\J mended in preference to the ordinary qualities, may rely on their being perfectly safe, as they are pronounced by authorities here and elsewhere to be far above the legal standard of inflammability. '' ! The ordinary qualities of Oil imported into New Zealand, in reference to the testing ot which so much has of late been reported in the newspapers, may be as a rule sufficiently safe tp stand the teat required by English law, viz., 100 degrees, but may notreajeb. the New Zealand standard of 110 degrees. Unfortunately there have been exceptions. Badly trimmed lamps, and dirty burners, are a much greater source of danger than the uee of oil ranging in fire test from 100 to 110 degrees. A simple test, slightly altered from Downer's pamphlet, is here submitted, tha consumers may judge for thehaselves as to the kinds of oil they are usinoI .^ a Tj E S T Take a cup or tumbler, (fill it nearly full of water warmed so"'that a thermometer inserted therein shows a mean temperature of 110 degrees, pour a small quantity of oil on : the ■ water, stir a little then pass a lighted match quickly but closely over the surface of the oil once ; if it) ignites do not use the oil, it. is unsafe ; if it does not ignite it can be safelp;used.; : 1 Tours" respectfully, ; [',-,..:■> Bridge-street, .Nelson, June, 1878.
