Letter to J. L. Patterson,
Griffin, Ga.
Dear Sir: If we sell Devoe to paint
your town, your road won’t have so
much freight to handle.
It takes 10 gallons to paint a fair¬
sized house, and that house won’t want
painting again for 5 or 10 years. That’s
true in a way; but people, you know
rather like fresh paint, and they paint
for nothing but looks sometimes.
- That house would take 12 or 13 gal¬
lons of almost any other paint than
Devoe, and would have to be painted
again in half that time. Ten years is a
very long time for paint to wrear; and
five isn’t short .!
Which makes the most freight, a 10
or 20-gallon paint ? 5 or 10 year-paint?
But the 10-gallon paint is the 10-year
paint; and the 20-gallon paint is the 5-
year paint. Which makes the most
freight?
Ask your paint dealer which he’d
rather sell, and which he could sell
most of. Ask your painter which he’d
rather paint; whether good or bad paint
is good for his business; which is good
paint, the 10 or 16-gallon paint; which
pays most freight, and which pays
most wages. Which will you buy
yourself, the 10-gallon 10 year, or 20-
gallon 5-year, paint ?
Yours trluy

Sluggish Liver a Foe to Ambition.
You cannot accomplish very much
if your liver is inactive as you feel dull,
your eyes are heavy and slight exertion
exhausts you. Orino Laxative Fruit
Byrup stimulates the liver and bowels
and makes you feel bright and active.
Orino Laxative Fruit Byrup does not
nauseate or gripe and is mild and very
pleasant to take. Orino is more effec¬
tive than pills or ordinary cathartics.

Busy Day for Ordinary Drewry.
Sunday was a disagreeable day but

at Oak Hill Baptist church near the

At one o’clock he administered the

At five o’clock he officiated at the

A few minutes after five he joined
in marriage a couple from Columbus,
who wish to keep the matter a secret.
It is not known how he occupied
the time from six until nine o’clock,
but he was probably engaged in some
good work.
