Letter to B. F. Fendig.

Rensselaer, Ind. Dear Sir: Messrs Leach man & Adelin, Grafton, W, Va.» had been selling a paint, which they thought well of; and this had ccourred. They had sold a oiastorner 18 gallons of it to paint bis house A few years later, they sold the same mau Divoe lead-and-zino, the same number of gallons to paint the same house, He had 7 gallons left. Th*- point of the tale is: 11 gallons Dsvoe paints an 18-gallon house.

Of course, that isn’t all. Why does 11 gallons Devoe go as far as 18 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. We’ve got their names. Our agents know them; they think a heap of Devoe. There’s no difficulty in showing your townspeople what to expect of Devoe. $lO will paint a sls house; and the paint’il last twice as long. Yours truly, F. W. Devoe 4 Co. 88 N-iw York and Chicago. P. S. B. F Fendig sells our paint.
