"Fewer Gallons: Wears Longer.

This is the mystic sign that has
been appearing in the newspapers for
some time, and about which SO many
questions have been asked. ''Fewer
gallons; Wears longer" What does
it mean? Precisely what it says.
But to interpret the language SO it
may be more readily understood in
plain and simple words it means that
it requires fewer gallons OF Devoe
Lead and Zinc paint to cover given
surface, applied with equal thickness,
and it lasts longer when it is put on.
Cheaper than white lead and oil and
superior to ready mixed paints, re-
tanning a fresh and glossy appear
ance for a greater number OF years.
This is the claim made for it by the
manufacturers and the facts seem to
bear them out.
Mr. James A. O'Neil, of Henderson,
painted his residence with Devoe
Lead and Zinc. 1t lasted 20 years
without cracking or peeling off, and
when the house was painted again it
did not look as badly as many other
houses in the neighborhood that had
not been painted more than half as
long where other paints were used.
We do not know about the ''fewer
gallons" but in the case of Mr..
ONeil's residence we have ocular
demonstration that it wears longer
