S. M. STRENGTH WITHOUT NOXIOUS FUMES. SAFETY WITH ECONOMY. AX ALMOST TOTAL ABSENCE OF SMOKE. THIS well-known Mining Powder, manufactured by CURTIS'S & HARVEY, is much superior in strength to the ordinary kinds, and is altogether free from the serious disadvantage of producing NOXIOUS GASES. For these reasons, it is commonly used in close under- ground places, fand wherever rapid progress is of great im- portance. IT will be found to be particularly suitable for Quarrv work where hard and tough rock has to be removed; and for all sub-aqueous blasting operations.
