Advantages of 



NORTHWESTERN IRON HEAD6ATES 



Advantage No. 5: RELIABILITY-SAFETY 



You want a gate you can depend upon year after 

 year, because with water valuable you can't afford to 

 take chances on losing any. A wooden gate isn't safe 

 because wood is certain to warp and rot. 



NORTHWESTERN IRON HEADGATES are 

 made a little stronger than absolutely necessary, just to 

 be on trie safe side so that you can depend upon them. 

 It is worth something to be able to depend upon your 

 headgate to know that it is strong enough to stand 

 the water-pressure and that it won't leak or go to pieces. 



It is worth something to you to have your water 

 supply safe, and to have a gate with which you can ab- 

 solutely control it and exactly regulate it. My booklet 

 shows the gate.

r.AM the paint man. 

 I have a new way 

 " of manufacturing 

 and selling paints. It's 

 unique it's better. It 

 revolutionized the 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 is 

 received, packed in hermetically sealed cans 

 with the very day it is made stamped on each 

 can by my factory inspector. 



I ship my thick pigment, which Its 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- you payno dealer or middleman profits. 



My $100.00 Cash Guarantee 



I guarantee, under $100 Cash Forfeit, 

 that the paint I am offering you does 

 not contain water, benzine, whiting, or 

 barytas -and that my Oilo is pure, old- 

 fashioned linseed oil and contains ab- 

 solutely no foreign substance whatever. 



t guarantee the freight on six gallons or over. 



My paint is so good that I make this wonder- 

 fully fair 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 of 

 your order and the two gallons will not cost 

 you one Penny. 



No other paint manufacturer ever made such 

 a liberal offer. 



It is because I manufacture the finest paint, 

 put up in the best way, that L can make this 

 offer. 



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

 six month? 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 my 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 

 copy of my 8-year guarantee.
