roasted meat; these are succeeded by
vegetables, and the vegetables by

ND you ever look up the meaning
II Of the words "Price" and "Cost"?
We venture you'd be interested. even
surprised.
price" originally meant not money, not CASH
but Reward, Praise, Worth. In the days of
Caesar they called it "Pretium."
Cost" comes from the old Icelander word
"Koster," signifying to Choose, to Test, to
Prove.
So Price" is really the Worth of the thing sold.
Cost means how we'll the thing bought proves
up in actual use.
So we're not far off the track today, for when you
buy paint the Price of it should be the measure of its
usefulness, in appearance and wear Its Cost to you
will be how we'll it stands the test you put it to- If
does we'll, it's cheap; if not, you paid too much.
Measured by this, poor paint costs far, far more than
good paint; never worth the price asked and never
stands the test of wear.
There's one house paint made that's worth the price
and stands the test, and that's HORSE SHOE
BRAND HOUSE PAINT,-best lead, zinc, aged
linseed oil, apan coloring matter and nothing else;
honest materials, honestly prepared, sold on honor.
Seven gallons of HORSE SHOE PAINT covers as
