Dear Sir: We have on file tes timonials from men who have had L. & M. Pain t wear 14 years on their houses without epainting. Most people get tired of a color before that time. TIhe extreme durabily of L. & M. coupled with its gre'at economy due to the fact that you add much oil to each gallon of. paint basenabled us to keep up our enormous sales. No thinking house-owner will buy a thin paint when he can get his paint and oil separately at proper price for each and then mix them together. Kindly obte.in our color cards and prices from McMAS TER CO. Very truly, LONOMAN & MARTINEZ, Paint Makers.
