Letter to C. F. Stott,
Mc Conncllshurg, Pa.
Dei.r Sir : If you could get the
exclusive sale of i sweeter sugar
for five miles round-Jib. as sweet
as a pound of usual sugar, and
cost no more you'd jump at it,
wouldn't you ?
There wouldn't be 100 lb. of any
other sugar sold in a year in your
town; you'd gobble the trade, and
it wouldn't hurt your whole busi
ness. Devoe is like that among paints;
it is twice as sweet as some; it is
sweeter than any; not one excep
tion; one gallon is two or one and
a-half or one-and-three quarters.
Better than that; paint has to
be painted; that costs $2 to $4 a
gallon. A gallon saved is $2 to $4
saved in labor, besides the paint.
Even that isn't all. A gallon
Devoe put on wears as long as two
gallons put on at a cost of $2 to
$4 a gallon and two gallons more
put on at $2 to $4 a gallon. Count
all that. The paint that wears
double costs less by 3 gallons of
paint and 3 gallons of painting;
that's about 15 a gallon for those
superfluous gallons.
That's as good as a double-
sweet sugar, isn't it?
Yours truly
F. W. Devoe & Co..
