.'AM the paint man. 

 I have a new way 

 of manufacturing 

 and selling paints. It's 

 unique — it's better. It 

 revolutionized ttie paint 

 business of this country 

 last year. 



Before my plan was 

 invented paint was sold 

 in two ways — either 

 ready-mixed or the in- 

 gredients were bought and mixed by the painter. 

 Ready-mixed paint settles on the shelves, form- 

 ing a sediment at the bottom of the can. The 

 chemical action in ready-mixed paint, when 

 standing in oil, eats the life out of the oil. The 

 oil is the very life of all paints. 



Paint made by the painter cannot be proper- 

 ly made on account of lack of the heavy mixing 

 machine. 

 My paint is unlike any other paint in the world. 

 It is ready to use, but not ready-mixed. 

 My paint is made to order after each order if 

 received, packed in hermetically sealed cans 

 with the very day it is made stamped on each 

 can by my factory inspector.

My $100.00 Cash Guarantee 



I guarantee, under $100 Cash forfeit. 

 WiaA. the paint I am offering you does 

 i\o( contain water, benzine, whiting, or 

 barytes— and that nvy Oilo is pure, old- 

 fashioned linseed oil and contains ab- 

 solutely no foreign substance whatever. 



I ship my thick pigment, which lis double 

 strength, freshly ground, in separate cans, and 

 in another can, I ship the pure, old process 

 Linseed Oil — the kind you used to buy years ago. 

 Any child can stir them together. 



I sell my paint direct from my factory to 

 user — pay no dealer or mlddlemaD profits, i 



/ nnnrnntfie frriaht on six g-allons or over. 



My paint is so good that I make this wonder- 

 fully faii test offer: 



When you receive your shipment of paint, 

 you can use two full gallons — that will cover 

 600 square feet of wall — two coats. 



If, after you have used that much of my 

 paint, you are not perfectly satisfied with it in 



every detail, you can return the remainder ot 

 your order and the two gallons will not cost 

 you one penny. 



No other paint manufacturer ever made sucn 

 a liberal offer. 



It is because I manufacture the finest paint, 

 put up in the best way, that I can ma ^e this 

 offer. 



I go even further. I sell all of my paint on 

 six months' time, if desired. 



This gives you an opportunity to paint your 

 buildings when they need it, and pay for the 

 paint at your convenience. 



Back of my paint stands my Eight- 

 Year officially signed, iron-clad 

 Guarantee. 



For further particulars regarding mj- plan 

 of selling, and complete color card of all 

 colors, send a postal to O. L. Chase, St. Louis, 

 Mo. I will send my paint book— the most com- 

 plete book of its kind ever published— abso- 

 lutely free. Also my instruction book entitled 

 This Little Book Tells How to Paint" and 

 :opy of my 8-year cu.qrantee.
