Letter to L. P. llaslett,
Butler, Pa.
Dear Sir: There are these five ways of
badness in paint:
(1) stuffed-out with chalk, or some
thing like'that;
(2) barytes, better than chalk, but no
covering to it; nobody knows it's there;
(8) benzine in the oil, or water, or oth
er such stuffing,
(4) too thin—too much liquid, what
ever it is, for the solid;
(5) short measure;
Now will you buy by the price per
"gallon"?
We furnish our agents with a state
chemist's certificate of analysis that
tells what's in Devoe.
