would be impossible for a dealer to
keep in stock an entire line Of high

samples OF the best qualities sent to
him at very frequent intervals. This
enables customers of discrimination

For 100 years Devoe paint has
been on the market and that name
means the best ln paints. For that
reason Mr.. Jourgensen carries a full
