Letter to A. U. NACE.
McConnellsburg, Pa.
Dear Sir : It is a great thing
for a merchant to have the ex
clusive sale (in his region, of
course) of anything wanted by
everybody.
There are two ways to treat
such goods. One is : put the
price up and make big profit.
The other way is : be fair and
make more.
Devoe is the paint that takes
least gallons and costs least
money a house, a job, a year, a
lifetime no matter how you
.eckon your costs, except by the
gallon Devoe is the best care
taker and costs least money.
Don't forget that the principal
part of the cost of paint is put
ting it on. Less gallons, less
cost. Don t forget that another
principal part of econony is lojg
wear: less gallons, less cost and
long wear.
It is a great thing to have the
exclusive sale of popular goods,
of goods that make friends, of
goods that enrich both buyer and
seller. Devoe is ierhaps only
ten percent, better than one or
two others; but ten is a plenty
it's 200 or iiOO bettor than many.
There's mauy a merchant who
hasn't found out his goods. It
doesn't take a man long to find
out that Devoe is the least-money
paint and whv, no matter which
side he is on.
Yours truly,
