A Cure for Leaky Roofs 



T^VON'T waste time trying to patch a 

 -^-^leaky roof ! A roof which leaks in one 

 place is generally on the verge of leaking 

 in many other places. 



The cheapest method of repair is to covet 

 the whole roof with Amatite. Amatite costs 

 so little that the entire job can frequently 

 be done for the expense of caring for a 

 leaky roof. After the old roof is covered 

 with Amatite you will have no further 

 worry or expense. 



Most ready roofings require a coat of 

 paint every two years to keep them in order. 

 But Amatite is not the ordinary kind of 

 Ready Roofing. Amatite has a real mineral 

 surface, firmly imbedded in the Coal Tar 

 Pitch waterproofing. This surface resists 

 the attacks of the elements like a stone wall. 



It demands no additional protection or 

 covering, such as a coat of paint. 



Buying Amatite is the same as buying an 

 ordinary ready roofing with an agreement 

 from the dealer to keep it painted free of 

 charge. Such an agreement on the ordinary 

 roofing would double its value. You prac- 

 tically get such an agreement with every 

 roll of Amatite; yet the price is no greater 

 than that of the ordinary kind. 



Send us your name and address, and we 

 will forward you by return mail a free 

 sample of Amatite, and you can see how 

 tough, durable and substantial it is. Write 

 to-day to nearest office.

St. Loula, 



HAVE a new way of manufactur- 

 ing and selling house paint that's 

 unique— that's better. Before my plan, 

 Paint was sold in two ways — either 

 ready-made — or mixed by a local 

 painter. 



Both these ways are at fault. 



Ready-made Paint settles hard in 



cans — and mineral pigments and 



chemical acting driers in ready-made, paint 



eat the life out of Linseed Oil— which is the 



FE of all paint. Painter-Made Paint can never 



properly made by a painter — because of lack of 



O.L.CHASE, 7HE PAINTMAN, 



heavy mixing and grinding machinery. My Paint is ready to use 

 —but not ready-made. My Paint is made to order— after the 



order is received — packed in hermetically sealed cans— (extra size 

 to insure a full gallon) and dated the day the paint is made. 



Pure Linseed Oil and pure, fresh paint ingredients are used in my 

 Paint. Such materials found at local stores are usually adulterated. 



I sell my Paint direct from factory \to user — at very low 

 factory prices. 



I pay freight on six-gallon orders or over. 



When the order of six gallons or over is received, use two full gal- 

 lons to test it — and if you are not perfectly satisfied, in every 

 particular, return the balance of the order to me — and the two 

 gallons you have used shan't cost you a penny. 



"Dept. 4-7. 



No other paintmaker offers such a liberal proposition. I make 

 three brands of Paint to suit the requirements of my immense trade. 



My strictly Pure All White Lead Paint is absolutely the best 

 paint in the world. My 40-60 Brand Zinc and Lead Paint is the 

 best paint in its class on the market. My Durability Paint lias an 

 immense sale everywhere, and is sold under five-year iron-clad 

 guarantee. The Purity of my Paint is guaranteed under a forfeit 

 of $100.00 in gold. Send for my beautiful Paint Book and Big
