That depends-very much
on the kind of painting
you do.
We once knew a cattleman
IN Oklahoma, who shipped a
carload of steers TO Kansas
City and came back saying
he had painted the town -
He looked it, and the cost
had been high.
We knew a widow once. who
by the judicious use of paint
succeeded in marrying her
self TO a very prosperous
merchant, out in the Pan
handle country.
We also know a politician,
with a very dubious nose,
who will acknowledge that
he has spent several thousand
dollars in achieving the
matchless tint Of that same
nose.
But If you are going to paint
the house, or varnish the fur
