Letter to A. U. MACE.
McConnellsburg, Pa.

Dear Sir; 1t is a great thing
for a merchant to have the ex-
clu sive sale Gin his region, of
course) of anything wanted by
everybody.
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
llfetlme-no matter how you
.eckon your costs, except by the
gallon-Devoe is the best care
taker and costs least money.
Don't forget that the principal
part of the cost of paint is put
ting 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
ten per cent. better than one OF
two others; but ten is plenty
It's 20O or 300 better than many,
There's many a merchant who
hasn't found out his goods. II
doesn't take a man long to FIND
out that Devoe is the least-money
paint and why, no matter which
side he Is on.
Yours truly,
10 r. w. DEVoE & Co.
