Collar, La.
Dear Sirs;-YOu are agents for De-
voc lead-and-sinc for your town and
country.
The whole doctrine OF 1t turns on
these three points:
u 1t IL all paint and true paint;
(2) 1t is the strongest paint;
(3) 1t Is full measure.
Because 1t is all paint, true paint,
proportioned for strength and full
measure,
~ 1t takes less for a Job;
(2) Looks best all the time;
(3) Lasts longest;
~ Gathers the trade, and holds
customers.
There is no such argument for any
other paint; there IL no other such
paint; there Is nothing but talk for
any other paint. Devoe is the paint,
II yOu want the facts on your side.
The country Is full of experiences:
we bring these experiences to bear on
your trade. Yours truly,
