Devoe lead-and-zinc?that's the Dame of our paint that takes fewer gallons than mixed paint and wears twice as long as lead-and-oil?is made of white-lead, white zinc, its color, turpentine dryer, and linseed oil. If any chemist hods any adulteration in this p*i<jt we'll pay his bill and 81,000 brides. It's nobody's busines what we put in our paint, of course; but we want it known. For lead-aod zioc and linseed oil. grouod together by machinery, are the stuff to paint with ; and lead-and-oil mixed by hand is not. We want it known that one word describes the best paint in the world; and that word is Deyoe. Are you goiDg to paint ? Yours truly, F W Devoe 8c Co., New York.
