Letter to Nisbet Wingfield.
Augusta, Ga.
Dear Sir: We've got $35 for yon.
Is it time to paint that house? Let
us give you a point. The cost of a
job of paint depends on the paint—
of course, we assume ypur painter ia
honest, or. what’s the same thing, that
your eyes are good.
If you paint with one paint, it'll take
10 gallons—say 10 for ease of reckon
ing -that proportion.
Paint with another, 15 gallons; an
other 20 gallons.
Here's a man who has found It out
by doing it:
Jacob N Hayes, of Rloomtngdale. N
Y, used eight gallons Devon on a Jok
he had used 11 gallon* of anothet
paint on last time
You think he saved 6 gallona ot
paint $10.50. No. he saved also the
wages for painting r, gallons; that'*
about S2O more. And that isn't all.
The paint that saves six gallons wear*
longer than paint that wastes six gal
ions. We don't know how much
longer.
We rather think this letter Is wortt
about ICO to you. Yours truly
