Many people look upon paint buy.
Ing as lottery and so it is, the way
they do 1t. 1t is not necessarily So
however. Pure White Lead and lin.
seed oil are the essential elements of
good paint. Adulterants in white lead
can be easily found by the use of a
blowpipe. Authorizations in linseed oil
can be detected with a fair degree of
certainty. See that these two elements
are pure and properly put on and the
paint will stay put.
National Lead Company, Wood
bridge, Building, New York City, will
send blowpipe outfit and instruc-
lions for testing both white lead and
linseed oil, on request.
