WE GUARANTEE SATISFACTION. Rutland, Es Itali Barre, Quine Pneumatio satisfaction estly solicit prompt am O. ?2?. < Latter to Sheriff B. H. Mot?, Walhalla, Dear Sir: It ia all very well for us to say that it take? fewer gall?os of Devoe Lead and Zinc to paint a house than it does of mixed oaints; but yon want to kuow why. For the same reason that it takes lesa Sood cow's milk to feed a baby thau it oea of skimmed milk. Moat mixed paints are fifteen to eighty per oentadulteration-inconceivable, but true. Water isn't paint. Barytes isn't f>aint. Whiting isn't paint. Benziue sn't paint. Petroleum isn't paint Fish oil isn't paint. Nene of these are a right 8art of a good paint. None of these do lie work that belongs to paint. All they do ia to fill the eau. Devoe Lead and Zino is one-hundred per oent paint. The adulterated mixed paints are only twenty to eighty-five per oent paint. Mixed paint ought to be from fifteen to eighty per oent cheaper than Devoe Leadand Zino-no; the worst of them oughtn't to be anything. They waste yonr money; you must not only buy more gallons, but you must p -y the painter for spreading the extra number of gallons; and painting costs three times as muoh as the paint. Tours truly, F. W. Devoe & Co., New York. P. S.-O. W. Oignilliat sells onr paint. The Farmers' Alliance Exchange oase was argued bofore the master, john S.
