Letter to S. 3. WooIlet,
McConnellsburg Pa.

Dear Sir: There are two sorts
of paint; one TO sell and make
money, the other to paint and
save money.
Who gets the money? The
maker, the seller, the painter.
Where does it come FROM? The
owner, of course; he pays the
painter for dong the work, and
the dealer for gallons of paint;
ard he pays the paint-manufact-
urer, gallons again: more gallons,
more money all round: for the
owner to pay to the painter deal
er aud paint manufacturer.
What's the paint that saves
money? Gallons again; less gal
Ions, less money for paint, less
money for wages; a gallon Of
paint Is s. for wages and paint
Less gallons, less money to pay,
s. a gallon.
Two sorts of paint; less gallons
and more: less money and more:
s. a gallon difference: two to one
in gallons and money.
1t costs twice as much to pant
the average more gallons paint
as to paint Devoe. When the
people find out, it may not be
quite so easy to sell extravagant
paint by calling 1t cheap"
Yours truly
f. w. DEVOE & Co.

When Messrs. Neill Carter and A.

ter sauntered down to the gate with
them-they started out from Mr..

parting shot, that he'd give them a
gallon of corn for the first fish they
caught, two gallons for the second
and SO on, doubling the amount for
every additional fish. And then Mr..
Carter went about his business and
thought no more of it until the
next day, when Messrs Carter and

startling announcement that they
had caught p fish and that he, Mr.

Mr. J. ". Carter is a large farmer
