PAINT WITHOUT OIL 



Remarkable Discovery that 



Cuts Down the Cost of Paint 



Seventy-five Per Cent. 



A Free Trial Package is iVIaiied to Every 

 One Who Writes. 



A. L. Rice, a prominent manufacturer of Adams, 

 N. Y., has discovered a process of making a new 

 kind of paint without the use of oil. He calls It 

 Powdrpalnt. It comes in the form of a dry powder 

 and all that is required Is cold water to make a 

 paint weather-proof, fire-proof, and as durable as 

 oil 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 Mr. A. L. Rice, Manufacturer, 8 North 

 St., Adams, N. Y.. and he will send you a free trial 

 package, also color-card and full information show- 

 In g you how you can save a good many dollars.
