PAINT WITHOUT OIL 



Remarkable Discovery that Cuts Down 

 the Cost of Paint 75 % 



A Free Trial Package is Mailed to Everyone 

 Who Writes 



A. L. Rice, a prominent manufacturer of 

 Adams, N. Y., discovered a process of making 

 a new kind of paint without the use of oil. He 

 named it Powdrpaint. It comes in the f m of 

 a dry powder, and all that is required is cold 

 water to make a paint weather proof, fire 

 proof, sanitary and durable for outside or in- 

 side painting. It is the cement principle ap- 

 plied to paint. It adheres to any surface, 

 wood, stone or brick, spreads and looks like 

 oil paint and costs about one-fourth as much. 



Write to A. L. Rice, Inc., Manufacturers, 

 23 North St., Adams, N. Y., and a free trial 

 package will be mailed to you, also color card 

 and full information, showing you how you 

 can save a good many dollars. Write today.
