Dear Str.-As a painter you prob

naturally object to Devoe Ready
Paint, Let us have few words on
the subject.
Painters say u good lead and oil
job will last three years, and they
say n house ought To be painted once
in three years,
We take them to mean that their
work is good for three years, no more
and no less, or not much more aud
not much less.
Do you want your work TO last
longer, What do you say to six
yearsS You'd have to have twice as
much work, you know: or you'd be
losing monsy,
Consider tho case OF your doctor.
You call him In. Is 1t better for him

else in your town and county, aud
state, We are all alike; we all want
our doctors quick, A doctor that
gets his patients up quick, is tho doe
tor that gets the patients gets rich
too, II he isn't run to death.
It's about the same with u painter
isn't it2 Suppose you paint Devoe,
and your competitor objects To Devoe;
your work lasts six years and his
three, You cost your customer half;
he costs double, Who'll get the bust.
ness; and who'll go 10 Texas2
Dcvoo lasts six years not exactly

II never wears out In less than three,
SO far rs we know. On windy,

years, Lead and oil lasts one year
there.
