HAD SEVEN GALLONS LEFT.

Messrs Leachman & Edelin,, Graf
ton, w Va, had been selling a paint,
which they thought well of; and this
had occurred.
They had sold customer IS gal
Ions of it to paint his house. A few
years later they sold the same man
Devoe lead-and-zinc the same number
of gallons to paint the same house.
He had Z gallons left
The point of the tale is: IL gal
Ions Devoe paints an 1S-gallon house.
Of course, that isn't all.
Why does II gallons Devoe go as
far as IS gallons of other paint?
Because it is all paint, all true, no
sham, and full measure.
But that isn't all. Devoe lasts
longer. No, no; you haven't got to
wait ten years to find that out. Ten
thousand people know it. They think
a heap of Devoe. There's no diff
Guilty in showing our townspeople
what to expect of Devoe. $40 will
paint SIS house; and the paint'll
last twice as long.
