Paint Knowledge 



NO matter who your painter may be, for your own protection as 

 a property owner, you should know the vital and interesting 

 facts set forth in our book, "Paint and Painting." 

 This little book contains a fund of all-round paint knowledge — 

 downright, tangible, practical information — for layman, architect, 

 builder, painter and painter's employe. 

 And it proves in a clear, convincing way why 



Lowe Brothers 



High Standard Paint 



Gives Best Results 



—Spreads better, covers more surface to tbe gallon, wears longer and retains 

 its beauty better, why it is most economical and most satisfactory. Thirty-three 

 years of scientific paint study and practical paint-making, with constant and 

 consistent tests, have given us what we know to be the most rational and correct 

 formulae in use today. 



"HIGH STANDARD" LIQUID PAINT is ground superfine— and perfectly 

 mixed by the new, powerful and delicately adjusted machinery— contains more 

 particles to the gallon— forms the smoothest, best-working paint- texture. 



Write today for the book "Paint and Painting." We will gladly mail it free. 

 together with the name of your nearest "HIGH STANDARD" Paint dealer.

The Decay of Wood 



is due to bacteria — just as cholera and smallpox and other ills that vex our flesh are due 

 to bacteria. So long as the bacteria are excluded, wood cannot decay. Good paint 

 excludes the bacteria that produce decay. So long as a building is properly protected 

 by good paint, it will remain sound and firm. Paints that protect longest and most thor- 

 oughly are based on Oxide of Zinc, See that your paint is that kind. 



Our pamphlet, " Paint : Why, How and When " (free to property owners), explains 

 the matter.
