Stafford Springs, Conn.
Dear Sir: Perhaps you are going to
paint your house, and don't believe In
Devoe. Wen make you an offer:
Paint half your house lead and oil; the
other half Devoe lead and zinc.
In three years the lead and oil half will
be hungry for paint the Devoe half will
turn water as we'll as when new.
If not, our agent will stand by this:
"If you have any fault to find with this
paint, either now In the painting or here
after In the wear, tell your dealer about
1t.
1--WE authorize him to do what Is right
at our expense"
Devoe lead and zinc holds color better
than lead; turns water twice as long.
