GEO. ROWNEY & CO.'S ARTISTS' WATER COLOURS. G. ROWNEY & CO. have much pleasure in stating that they have reduced the price of the following Artists' Colours from 1/- each to 9d. each for Whole Cakes, Whole Pans, and Whole Tubes:— Whole Cake.

Gold Ochre Vandyke Brown Venetian Red Vermilion Yellow Lake Yellow Ochre Zinc Yellow There is no alteration in the prices of the other pigments. These Colours, made of the purest materials, are ground finer than other makers', and flow more evenly without granulation. ASK FOR ROWNEY'S ARTISTS' COLOURS, and should you find any difficulty in obtaining them, write direct to the manufacturers:— GEO. ROWNEY & CO., 61 Brompton Road, London, S.W. REEVES' ARTISTS' COLOURS ARE MANUFACTURED PRIMARILY FOR ARTISTS, NOT AMATEURS; THE PROCESSES ARE SUPERVISED BY CHEMISTS SPECIALLY TRAINED IN THE PREPARATION OF ARTISTS' COLOURS. REEVES' COLOURS ARE TESTED AND REPORTED UPON BY ARTISTS, AND THIS IS PROBABLY THE REASON OF THEIR PRESENT-DAY PERFECTION AND THE INCREASED HOLD THEY HAVE OBTAINED OF LATE YEARS ON THE LEADING STUDIOS. REEVES' COLOURS ARE SUPERIOR TO THOSE MADE PRINCIPALLY FOR AMATEURS—SUPERIOR IN STRENGTH, IN TONE, IN QUALITY AND IN PERMANENCE. AD. I

Subject to this, the copyright in such drawings, &c., belongs (unless otherwise stated or implied in the announcement) to the competitors sending them, and they are free to dispose of them as they like. (5) All Drawings, &c., including those to which prizes have been awarded (unless otherwise stated), will be returned to Competitors at their own risk as soon as possible after publication of the awards, provided sufficient stamps are sent in the envelope containing the coupon to cover postage or carriage and packing—the minimum in all cases being sixpence.
