higher position, which to him would

Letter to z. J. George.

Dear Sir: "He's very good man
as men 70, he's only about fifteen per
cent tricky"
What do you think of that?
There are eight paints not-adulte-
rated and full-gallon; there are more
than two-hundred in all; some ACUTE
rated threequarters, some two-thirds,
some half, onethi-d, quarter; and,
when you get down to fifteen per cent,
they seem very good as paints go;
they're only about fifteen per cent
tricky.
How much is it fair to cheat in a
gallon, by measure; and how much
by water in milk; or whiting, china
clay, ground stone, barytes. benzine,
and water, in paint? Fifteen is the
least; it isn't worth while to cheat for
less than fifteen; they seem to think
so anyhow. Maybe, it isn't worth
while at all.
Devoe is the strongest Of all. A
gallon goes further: 10 gallons Devoe
is enough for job that takes II - 13
ii IS 16 II IS 10 20 81 % Of the rest;
and gallon costs S. when painters are
paid.
Now reckon the costs. Devoe $50;
the rest SIS $50 $65 $40 and 80 on.
How long will they wear? The
strongest wears longest, of course.
Is it worth while to cheat when an
honest paint costs least and wears
longest?
Yours truly,
