Here's an example. Professor Irvine,
of the Academy, Mercorsburg, Pa.,
painted the Moors of his dormitories
every year, one year with one paint, next
year with tlio paint of the other dealer
there to divide the business between
them till Devoe came to town.
The job took 90 gallons; takes 60 Devoe.
The difference, 30 gallons, $150. He
didn't know he was losing $150 a year
till he got Devoe.
Another example. When Geo. W.
Brown, Union, S. C, painted B. F. Ar
thur's house first time it took 30 gallons
"cheap" paiut; ropaiuted Devoe: 14 gal
lons. Yours truly,
