JOSEPH E. HOVER, Manufacturer.
As some evidence of the claim of HOVER's INK to superiority, it is ouly necessary to state that the American Institute, N. Y., awarded the manu- facturer, for seven successive years, the first Premium, and as an evidence of the high estimate in which they held this Ink, a Silver Medal was also awarded.
The Ink has received the high approbation and testimonials of the Pre- sident of the United States and Heads of Public Departments, including the Congress of the United States, Patent Office, &c.
The Faculty of the University of Pennsylvania, as well as those of many of the medical and scientific institutions of the country, have also given it their certified sanction.
Those eminent chemists and philosophers, Dr. Hare, of Philadelphia, Dr. Locke, of Cincinnati, Dr. Jones, of the Patent Office, Washington. have frecly testified to its merits.
The Public Schools of Philadelphia have received their supply for nearly twenty years; and others, also, have regularly been furnished with HOVER'S INK by the manufacturer.
Public and private institutions of learning will find this Ink well adapted to their wants, and possessing the qualities of limpidity, durability and un- usual freedom from the tendency to corrode metallic pens. A trial is only necessary to insure its adoption and use.
