  HERE 
  is 
  a 
  roof 
  of 
  our 
  " 
  Target-and- 
  Arrow" 
  tin 
  which 
  has 
  been 
  con- 
  

   tinuously 
  good 
  since 
  it 
  was 
  first 
  laid 
  in 
  1871. 
  Thirty-five 
  years 
  of 
  

   exposure 
  has 
  caused 
  neither 
  rust 
  nor 
  leaks 
  and 
  it 
  is 
  as 
  sound 
  to-day 
  as 
  

   when 
  first 
  laid. 
  Those 
  who 
  buy 
  "Target-and-Arrow" 
  tin 
  to-day 
  will 
  get 
  

   the 
  same 
  quality 
  and 
  can 
  expect 
  the 
  same 
  service. 
  They 
  will 
  get 
  a 
  roof 
  

   that 
  requires 
  no 
  attention 
  except 
  a 
  coat 
  of 
  paint 
  at, 
  say, 
  six 
  or 
  eight 
  

   year 
  intervals 
  — 
  or 
  even 
  longer. 
  In 
  fact 
  the 
  intervals 
  between 
  paintings 
  

   will 
  be 
  found 
  to 
  be 
  longer 
  than 
  most 
  slag 
  and 
  composition 
  roofs 
  will 
  last.

  "We 
  

   have

  about 
  thirty 
  years'

  in 
  all 
  kinds 
  of 
  roofs 
  and 
  know 
  there 
  is 
  no 
  compar-

  a 
  good 
  tin 
  roof 
  and 
  any 
  kind 
  of 
  slag 
  or 
  prepared 
  roofing 
  that 
  we 
  have 
  used."
