Begast, Maine.

DEAR SIR: You know your painter; we
don't; we only know painters in general
There are two sorts, as there are two sorts
of everybody else. One paints us Well as
he can; the other as poor as he can and get
business.
The one who paints as well as he can is
all the time learning, the other one knows
it all now.
Josh Billings says sits better not to know
too much than to know so many things that
ant So" There are lots o things in paint
that ''a' mt So Lead and oil is one of EN-.
Devoe lead and zinc lasts twice as long is
better in every respect; is ready to dip the
brush in; you can depend on the colors no
mystery; no uncertainty; costs no more
costs less.
We hope you employ Mr.. Open-Mind
