Tile undersigned, practical painter of much
experience, who has given general satisfaction
to al who have employed him. both as to the
price and quality OF his work, has recently
located i'll OpeIousas, and solicits work i'll his
line Of busiuess-house andsign painting, white
washing, ktdsomining, etc. He will work for
twenty-five per cent. less than the prices
that have been usually paid here. and g'lar-
antee satisfaction. Estimates furnished without
charge, He will furnish all materials If de
sired, thereby enabling parties to know at the
outset the full cost Of the work. He has faci-
tiles for obtaining painting materials much
cheaper than persons generally, which makes
his work 81 much the cheaper. 4 specimen of
his painting can be seen at the Methodist church
iii 0pclOlsas, which he has just painted inside
aud out. On Inspecting his work and learning
his price, many will no doubt fee able to have
painting done who now think the cost 100 great.
See him and talk the matter over, which will
cost nothing. The cheapness and quality of his
painting, are an indUcement to have painting
done. WM. HIIIsMAN,
