Some of our people attended the 'cue at Edmund and speak in highest terms of the excellent "speech made on Iprohibition by that high toned christian gentleman, Hon. E. C. Ridgell.

Dear Sir: We make Devoe, and of course know what there is in it; but you don't, your neighbors don't, and the people don't. So we get the official chemist of every State in the Union to analyze it and tell what he finds; of course, they find what we put-in: lead zinc and oil, a little turpentine dryer, and color for tints. And that's paint. Every agent has the analysis of Devoe by his State chemist. We also analyze all other paints, and what do we find? We find eight made of the same materials as Devoe: all paint: pure paint. But we find no one of the same proportions as Devoe: no one so strong. And people are trying Devoe alongside of these other paints, and findingout how they work: what it costs to paint Devoe; what it coats to paint those several paints; how they wear alongside and comparatively. There's no guess-work in any of these results. A gallon Bevoe goes farther than any other gallon in all paint; it therefore saves both parts of first of a job, of paint and labor. It makes the best job of the lot, besides. It takes years and experiences by the thousand to find that out. Yours truly 88 ?. W. DEVOE & CO P. S. The Kaufmann drug Co.
