Letter to Henry r. Robertson.
Alexandria Virginia,

Dear Sir: If you could get the exclusive
sale of a sweeter sugar for five miles round
lib as sweet as pound Of usual sugar, and
no more-you'd jump at it, wouldn't you?
There wouldn't be 100 lib OF any other
sugar sold in a year in your town; you'd
gobble the trade; and it wouldn't hurt your
whole business.
Deyoe is like that among paints; 1t is twice
as sweet as some: il is sweeter than any; not
one exception; one gallon is two or one and-s-
half or one .and-three quarters.
Better than til It; pa,st has to be painted;
that costs 81 to 81 gallon. A gallon saved
is 81 to 81 saved in labor. besides the paint.
Even that isn't all. A gallon Devoe put
On wears a. long as two gallons put ON at a
cost Of 81 TO 81 gallon aud two gallons more
put on at 81 TO 81 gallon. Count all that.
The paint that wears double costs less by
gallons OF paint and 3 gallons OF painting;
that's about SIS gallon for those superiuous
gallons.
That's as good as a double-sweet sugar,
isntit? Yours truly
FW DRvoE & Co.

the Presidents protsge. Gen. Wood, is

Gen. Wood was Mr.. RoOsevelts servile
