Mr.. MAJOR, the famous cement man, Of New
Yorksexplains some very interesting facts about
Majors Cement
TIE mulutudss who use this standard article
know that 1t Is many hundred per cent. better
than other cements for which similar claims are
made, but a great many do not know why. The
simple reason Is that Mr.. Major uses the best
materials ever discovered and other manufsc-
turers dc not use them, because they are too ex-
pensivs n DO not allow large profits. Mr..
Major tells us that one OF the lament Of his
cement costs S.l6 a pound, and another costs
cements and liquid glue upon ne market are
nothing more than sixteen cent glue, dissolved
In water or citric acid and In some cases, altered
slightly IN color and odor By the addition Of cheap
and useless materials.
MAJORS cement retails at fifteen cents and
twenty-five cents a bottle, and when 3 dealer
tries 20 sell q substitute you can depend upon II
that bis only object Il 10 make large profit.
The profit on MAJORS emea Is e. much a.
any dealer ought 10 make On any cement. Ard
this e dOubly true IN view OF the fact that each
dealer gets his share Of the bensht OF Mr..
MAJORS advertising, which now amounts % over

Shouse, whip is one of the brightest

told them next year not to disturb the
