Mad at Paint 25c a gallon for paint is about $3.50 on the average job. and lots of men waited last year for that; but they didn't reckon; they got mad; wouldn't pay it. There are times to get mad and refuse to pay; but when one's property needs protecting is no time to get mad and not paint. Besides, it costs more to get mad and wait than to paint. Getting mad doesn't do any good to your property; paint does it good by keeping-out water; no water no rot; no paint, some water and rot; and a little rot is more than enough to make a man liberal towards his painter and paint. Paint costs not a cent. All the paint in the world, so long as it keeps-out water, costs not a cent. DEVOE P. B. Speed sells it.
