Letter to W T Itriulley
Abbeville, S. C
Dear Sir: You are interested In the prosperity
of your town. You can contribute to
It materially, and give it a far more prosperous
loot at the same time.
Perhaps the public prorerty needs a good
coat of print.
Devoe wli> supply that coat with two third*
of the number of gallons required of any
other. Devoe will last twice as long as any
other. Devoe is *11 paint aud full-measure.
Devoe is the strongest paint known. Devoe
will take care of the property. In the long
run, for half the money required by any
other.
The reason Is stated above: Davoe is all
paint and full measure : the strongest paint
known.
E D Jewell, Corry, Fa. painted his house 5
years ago with a mixed paint ; took 14 gallons.
Last spring he repainted with Devoe ;
bought 14 gallons and had 4 left. Saved S15 to
S20, for painilug costs two or three times as
much as the paint.
Yours truly
