When you go into a stor to buy linoleum, make sure you get it, and not a felt paper product that closely resembles linoleum and which is frequently sold under the name of "Linoleum, "Felt Base Linoleum," "Enamelled Linoleum," "New Process Linoleum," etc The Federal Trade Commission has decided that such felt paper floor coverings are not linoleum, and that their sale under the name, "Linoleum," deceives and misleads the public and hence is a violation of the Act of Congress approved September 26, 1914. The Commission finds that the word, "linoleum," has a definite meaning, and may only properly be used to describe a floor covering composed of oxidized oil and gums intimately mixed with ground cork or wood flour, pressed on a suitable fabric back. The Commission further finds that floor coverings made of felt paper saturated with asphalt, with a pattern painted upon the surface, are not linoleum, and must not be described, advertised, or sold as linoleum. One manufacturer of felt paper floor coverings has been ordered by the Commission to stop using the word, "linoleum," in connection with his product and to discontinue its use in the name of his company until such time as he may manufacture linoleum. Linoleum enjoys an enviable reputation as a tough, wear resisting and sanitary floor covering.

There are three easy ways to distinguish linoleum from painted felt paper floor coverings: 1 Linoleum has a burlap back. 2. Linoleum does not tear easily. 3. The edge of felt paper floor coverings is always black.

The public is invited to report any violation of the Commission's ruling, on the part of any store, to the Federal Trade Commission, Washington, D. or to any of the undersigned manufacturers of linoleum. Cecfc Co- ttBlesa Depi. Xaaeaster. Pa.
