WHAT WIFE SAYS GOES"
But 1t Sometimes is Bad For the
Painting.

When a property-owner know:
nothing about paint it is bad for the
property-owner. and bad for the
painter. 1t would not be so if the
property-owner would always hire a
skilled painter and then really leave
everything to him. But the house
owner so often fools himself on one
or the other of these things.
The skilled painter in every COM
munity has some Of the most incom-
petent competitors that ever vexed a
conscientious workman or contractor.
and the incompetents get jobs gener-
ally by working cheap In the next
place, when the skilled painter is
hired, they do not leave everything
to him, as so many property-owners
boast they do
They interfere most ignorantly and
most fatally. They insist sometimes
on using paint materials without in
vestigating whether they are good or
not. Or perhaps they insist on the
painters hurrying the work.

wife says, and what wife says goes
