Our Paints are made from the same
materials that all painters CLAIM to
use, best White Lead, Zinc and Lin
seed Oil, but scientifically. combined
with other materials that give them
strength, beauty, and make them eco
nomical, adhesive, and more durable
than any other paints.
Our paint can not be equaled for
outside work; the gloss being part
ofits body, gives it hard glossy enam-
eled surface, which will resist the ac-
ton of the weather longer than any
other paint. 1t is equally good for in
side work, whether on wood, plastered
walls or ceilings, or over wall paper.
The enameled surface given by the
gloss is not affected by scrubbing or
washing.
It has been thoroughly tested, being
in use over nine years, and has given
entire satisfaction. Suitable for all
purposes and warranted to stand in
any climate.
