The proceedings of the committee

had arrested in Chicago, nor was 1t
shown that they had been drunk at
any time. The latter charge seems to
have been unjust Bui It Is said that

Letter To e B WhiteIaw,
Monterep, Va.

Dear Sir: 1t is a great thing for
a merchant to have the exclusive
sale, in his region, of course, OF any
thing wanted by everyone.
There are two ways to treat such
goods. One is: put the price up
and make big profit. The other
way is: be fair and make more,
Devoe is the paint that takes
least gallons and costs least money
a house, a job, year, a lifetime
no matter how you reckon your
costs, except by the gallon-Devoe
is the best caretaker and costs least
money.
Don't forget that the principal
part of the cost of paint is putting
it on. Less gallons, less cost.
Don't forget that another principal
part Of economy is long wear; less
gallons, less cost and long wear.
1t is a great thing to have the
exclusive sale of popular goods, of
goods that make friends, of goods
that enrich both buyer and seller.
Devoe is perhaps only 10 per cent.
better than one or two others; but
ten is a plenty--its 2oO or 300 bet
ter than many.
There's mary a merchant who
hasn't found out his goods. 1t
doesn't take man long to find out
that Deyoe is the least money
paint and why, no matter which
side he is on. Ia
Yours truly,
