Ena yellow package OF G&zZZNIAN
east Gallons
That's the thing to go-by in paint-least
gallons--Devoe.
The strongest takes the least gallons, Of course; and,
of course, wears longest.
Costs half to t~hree-quarters; more likely
half. Depends on what you compare it with.
Compared with average paint, Devoe costs halt and
wears two or three times as long.
Compared with the worst, Devoe costs a third---the
worse your paint, the more it costs. You'll find it out
when you pay for putting it on.
You pay by the gallon. No matter how
you pay, you pay by the gallon.
You pay for putting it on by the day; but the painter
paints a gallon a day; a day is a gallon; you pay by the
gallon.
IF you don't know it, better look out.
If you want to know what a gallon costs you, put-on;
add together the gallon price and the day's-Work price.
You pay that for every gallon you have put-on; no
matter what paint; no matter what price; no matter who
paints it; no matter what bargain you make.
An extra gallon means weak paint, a little
more money for paint, more money for paint
ers' wages (about S. a gallon for both), and
painting again too soon.
The cheap paint is Devoe; the others are dear; there
are 8 not-adulterated in the United States; 200 adulterated;
100 short-measure; one Devoe. Take your choice.
IF anyone doubts any statement above,
heres the proof.
He may paint half his job Devoe, the other half any
Ipaint he likes. If Devoe doesn't take less gallons and cost
money O. for the gallons and % for putting it on, no pay.
If it does, Devoe is the paint that makes least first cost.
