 Your House Cheap 



And Have it Guaranteed to Look Better, Wear Longer, 

 and Cost Less than the Best White Lead Paints.

The cost of painting the house 

 and barn, outbuildings and fences 

 is a heavy burden. Cheap paints 

 joon fade, peel or scrape off and 

 white lead and oil costs so much 

 and has to be replaced so often that 

 it is a constant expense to keep the 

 bright, clean appearance so desira- 

 ble in the cozy cottage home or the 

 elegant mansion. The following are 

 a few of the large users of Carrara 

 Paint: 



Pennsylvania R. R. Co.; Pullman 

 Palace Car Co.; Chicago Telephone 

 Co. ; Central Union Telephone Co. ; 

 Field Museum, Chicago; Kenwood 

 Club, Chicago; Cincinnati Southern; 

 C. & E. I. R. R. ,o.; Denver & Rio 

 Grande R. R.; Wellington Hotel, 

 Chicago.

 longer, never fades, never cracks,

 York, one of the Most Magnif- 

 icentHotels in the World, Has 

 Used Tons and Tons of the 

 World Famous Carrara Paint.
