Silver for the Million!
To Private Families, Inn and Hotel Keepers, &c.
MESSRS. LANDFORD & CO. After numerous and expensive experiments, have succeeded in inventing an ELECTRO PLATING LIQUID, by the use of which German Silver, however common or yellow in appearance, is immediately made to assume the exact appearance of sterling Silver; and plated articles, being worn, are replated with less preparation and trouble than the present method of cleaning, the following simple directions being all that is necessary :--
  Wash the article that is to be plated in soda and water, dry it well; then apply the solution with a piece of woolen cloth--rub briskly with chamois leather, and it will immediately produce the most brilliant and pure colour of silver.
  Sold in bottles at 1s. 6d. and 2s. 6d. each, by the appointed Agent, MR. ANDREW CHERRY, Watch and Clock Maker, Lurgan.
