Letter to Rev. C. E. Burts.
Edgefeld, S. G..
Reverend Sir: In making pastor
al visits, of course. you do not
consider your pleasure or comfort
or ease; you go where your people
live. But you have two sets of
feelings in gcing about-can't
help tive all have. But you es-
pecially have; for par IF your
business is sympathy. Well-kept
lawns and well-tllled fields, nice
homes and nice people, are cheer
y. 10 yeg. as jksy are to1e1sr everyone.
Tumble-down buildings, poor
fences, men harrassed by burdens
too heavy for them, overworked
women, and dirty-faced children,
you may be strong to get on with !;
hut you would be more than hu.
man to find inspiration in misery.
Paint divides the two sorts of
people: one paints, and the other
don't. Or, perhaps, the thrifty
paint we'll the unthrifty paint i'll.
To paint we'll is to keep pant
sound. There are two ways to do
it: one is bound to paint often !;
the other to use good paint.
1t Gusts about half as much to
paint Devoe as to paint with any
other paint; for Devoe takes fewer
gallons than mixed paints and
wears twice as long as lead-and-
oil.
The thrifty and comfortable
bave che art of u.ing money more
wisely. How lucky they are! how
happy!
Yours truly,
F. w. DEvcE g. Co.
