Letter to F. H. Twelvetrees.

Dear Sir: Let's have little private
talk by ourselves on business; nobody
else, please, read.
You want to know how TO do a
cheap job Of painting, and have it look
good Here il is: The cheapest thing
there is i'm the way Of a goOd-looking
job-say nothing about its being good
is DevOe: the regular thing in DevOe.
The reason is: DevOe goes further
than anything else Lead-and-oil is
good-lOoking; don't 90 so far and costs
more. The other paints are more OF
less short in one way OF another; don't
20 so far and costs more than Devoe.
Devoe costs least Of all; you don't
mind its lasting longer, do you? We
can't help it; paint that goes further,
lasts longer; we can't help il.
