Devoe is tho standard ; murk it 100. Tho nextbest?there are several not far apart?are three-quarter paints ; yeu may mark them 75 to Devoe'a 100. Tho bulk of tho paints in market are 10 or 50 or GO ; a leware better than 60; a few are I worse than 40 How do tiioy act? They covor from one to throe-quarters as much as Devoo ; and they last from ono to three-quarters as lon? as Dovoe. What aro they worth? The same rule don't"hold ; it costs more to put-on somo paints than thoy nro worth ; they are not worth anything ; tho"put-on" ' costs two or throe tiro s as much ? as the paint. Yours truly, 21 F.
