For Every Important Window, 

 Choose the Unfilled Grade 



Brenlin Shades are now made in three pop- 

 ular priced grades, to meet the needs of every 

 home and every kind of window. 



But for every important window — for 

 every window that you want to "look its 

 best" — you will find it most economical to 

 choose the Brenlin Unfilled grade. For this 

 shade is made of closely woven cloth without 

 the "filling" that in ordinary shades =■"> often 

 cracks and falls out in unsightly streaks and 

 'pin holes." Sun won't fade it nor water 

 spot it. It is supple — not stiff, yet always hangs straight 

 and smooth . and really s hades. Made in many artistic 

 tones to harmonize with any decorative scheme. For 

 windows i yard wide by 2 yards long, 75c. Special sizes 

 and Brenlin Duplex — white one side dark the other — 

 made to order at proportionate prices.

55c and 30c nZfwJl) 



The two other grades of Brenlin — Brenlin Filled 

 at 55c and Brenlin Machine Made at 30c — will be

The Efficient Paint 



We paint to beautify and to protect our 

 property from decay. That paint is most 

 efficient which looks best, wears longest and 

 renders the service at the lowest annual cost. 

 The cost of painting is, roughly, one-third 

 materials, two-thirds labor. 



It is then but a small proportion of the total 

 cost of painting that can be saved by using 

 cheap materials, and as both beauty and 

 durability depend so much upon the materials, 

 it is important that care be used to secure 

 paint that will give efficient service. 



Pure white lead and linseed oil are recog- 

 nized as the standard ingredients of all good 

 outside paint. They possess a peculiar affinity 

 for each other, uniting to form a tough, yet 

 elastic paint film which accomodates itself to 

 changes in temperature without cracking, 

 scaling or peeling. 



CARTER 



Strictly Pure 



White Lead 



"The Lead with the Spread" 

 is old fashioned white lead, but being made 

 by a modern, improved process, is whiter and 

 finer and free from any discoloring agencies. 



Carter is such a clear, pure white that it 

 has established a new standard of whiteness 

 for white paint and given new life and beauty 

 to colors mixed with it. It is so fine that it 

 has unusual covering capacity and is most 

 economical to use. 



An experienced painter will mix Carter White 

 Lead and linseed oil exactly to suit the varying con- 

 ditions that paint must meet and will color it to any 

 desired shade or tint. 



Even figured by the gallon this paint is not the 

 most expensive on the market and when the other 

 tests of paint efficiency are applied nothing will be 

 found that will give more satisfactory service or at 

 lower annual cost. 



In asking for any of the helps illustrated, please 

 state whether you are interested in painting as Owner 

 of Property; Architect; Painter; or Paint Dealer.
