The attention of the public is invited to the Adamantine Pavement, as an article deserving special consider ation.

It is moulded cn the walks in blocks of any form, size and thickness, which do not eombine and Interlock, and may, if desii ed, be taken up and relaid like ordinary flagstone. From its plastic nature it may be laid on curved and irregular walks, with the same facility as on straight ones, and without that waste of material and extra expense that pertains to the fitting of stone. It may be made al most as white as marble, or tinted to imitate blue, brown and other sand stone. It is rich, elegant, durable and cheap. The most desirable pavement yet introduced for either private grounds or public sidewalks. It has a wide and- varied application, and numerous testimonials can be furnished from those who have practically tested«iiß merits; Walks that have been in use five years are as level, sound and perfect to-day as when just finished, and to all appearance will last a century. Inquiries and orders respectfully solicited. Address, I. fit Kingsbury, Monticello Ind.
