LETTER TO c. M. COUNCIL.
Anerious Ca.

Dear Sir; Our agent ought to sell
nlne-tenths of the paint of his town and
region; no use to try for the other
tenth, The proportion of men, who
won't take good advice, aud use the
least"gallons paint, is one in ten
among even owners of houses and
stores and shops and barns and fences.
One man in ten will buy gold brick
or green goods, If he has the money
and gets good chance,
Devoe ct 81, rs gallon is better than
gold; adultersted and shorts measure
paints are green goods and gold bricks.
DevCe saves half, more or less, of
the labor and wages of painting; it is
all paint; full strength, full measure.
There is no other such paint within
ten per cent. Ten per cent of labor
and paint is worth saving and ten is
the least, There are scores of paints
that throw-away half of both gallons
and labor on whiting, china clay,
ground stone, barytes, benzlne, water
all they are good for is to make gal
Ions of nothing and look like paint
in the can; more gallons to buy and
more gallons to pay for putting on
gold bricks and green goods. Here's
how they work.
Judge d Fairchild owns two houses
exactly alike in LufkIn, Texas. II
Terrence painted both houses; one
Devoe, 154 gallons; the other with
another paint sold at same price; 90
gallons. That 25 gallon paint is weak
and Is per cent whiting; that's why 1t
took 81 gallons more.
Yours truly
F. W. DEvoE d Co
New York.

paint.
