Paint Which
Lasts

Painters, and all others
who understand paint,
know that white lead and
linseed oil make the best
paint. Good, lasting paint
cannot be had if either pig
ment or oil is adulterated.
Many of the so-called
white leads sold now-a-
days have barytes, rock
dust, silica, gypsum, etc.,
in them, and little real
white lead.
Linseed oil is also FREE
quently adulterated. Such
mixtures are dear at anv
price.
