Paint Your Walls and Get 

 Exact Tints 



AVE you ever tried to match wall-paper 

 or any other wall-covering to rugs or 

 furniture ? 



C Have you ever leafed through book after 

 book of samples, trying in vain to find 

 something that would just suit the color 

 values of your rugs and draperies ? 



C You wanted a blue — found six blues — and not 

 one but would scream at your rug. 



C Same with the yellows, grays and browns. 



C The only wall covering for the particular per- 

 son is a made- to- order one. Then the tint can be 

 made exact. Use white lead paint and have it 

 mixed and tinted by your painter to your order. 



C Our white lead (''Dutch Boy Painter*' kind) is 

 smooth and clear, tints beautifully, and gives any 

 finish desired — dull, half-gloss, high-gloss or enamel. 



The artistic home-maker 

 should be the most enthu- 

 siastic advocate of ''white- 

 ^^^^ leading" (painting with 



i^s^'W white lead) because there is 



N»r no medium so flexible for 



the expression of the taste- 

 ful person's wish. 



Our "Dutch Boy Paint Adviser 

 No. '*95" is very helpful on both 

 interior and exterior decoration. 

 Costs but the trouble of asking 

 for it. Address
