Thomas H. Timmons- Letter to C- Gibson Dear Sir: You manage men and ma chinery; no-one knows better than you that one man is worth more than an other; that ( ne machine is worth more than another machine* Sometimes you pay the man more, sometimes you don’t; sometimes the machine costs more, sometimes it doesn’t. The differ ence is, sometimes, two or three to one, and costs not a cent. 8o with paint, and more too; the paint that does most service makes a Jess first cost of the job—you can paint* Devoe at less expense than the mean est stuff you can get. It is like a g >od steady man or ma chine; but goodness and steadiness have ♦« be paid-for in men, in ma chines not always, and never in pui.it. Paint is cheap in projtortion to strength. It Is pure paint that is steady nnd good; it is paint adulterated that is tricky. There is enough paint in the worst of these mixtures to look and feel like paint, and enough adulterants (whiting, china-clay, barytes, ground stone, benzine, water) to make two gallons of one. There are eight pure paints in the United (States; we know of no more; there are 200 adulterated. We analyze all, and know* what they arc made-of. Pure isn’t all; you want strength.
