Letter to D. R. Williams.
Dear Sir: Your ' business is,
when a hoQse huml down, to give
tho owner doiiio m6ney to huild a
new oiio. It in n good business.
Q.ieei that tho world got on so
long without it.
Wo paint the oue that burnt
down and the new one too. What
is better, we paint the houses thai
don't bum down.
You insure the houses that burn ;
we insure the houses that don't
You have the ashes and smoke; all
the houses ate ours.
We paint load-aud-ziuo ; Devoe.
We sell the paint to painters; we
don't; paint.
Lead and oil is tho old fashion
paint. ? Devoe is zinc ground in
with lend and linseed oil; the bet?t
paint iu the world: and the cheap
est, becatJHO it takes fewer gallons
than mixed paints and it wears
twice a? King as lesd-and oil. No
body wants poor paint; there's lote
of it, though, in the world.
A M, Uriflln, plain field, JS. J.,
Writes :
"Mr. /)Laron Higglns, of Plain
fleld, always used 15 gallons of
mixed paint for hie hou?e. Last
Spring he bought 15 gall ns of
Devoe and had 4 gallons left."
