Take half gallon of Chiffon Pain,

Take half gallon of Chiffon Paint and add to it nearly quart of best liu- seed oil and you have paint that costs very little money. and is very mnch better than the majority of paints We suggest this as & method of getting a good deal for small outlay of money
 You get thin coat of paint, but thin coats of paint are better than thick. Have your paints we'll brushed out and applied to dry surface and satisfac- tion IS sure to follow. The majority of mixed paints are worthless because the manufacturer tries to sec how low cost an article he can turn out depending on the price alone to sell it. Beginning in town with every assurance of success on account of the price. he lives to see customers pass his agents by till the agent himself, thoroughly disgusted with his loss of trade, reviles the manu- facturer whose goods he has tried in vain to foist upon an unwilling public The Chiffon Paints sell best in the towns where they have sold longest.
