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 thoroughly 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.

They show large, correctly drawn perspectives, 

 full floor plans, and complete descriptions, with 

 estimates of cost. The designs are new, original,

 combine beauty of exterior with complete and 

 convenient interiors, with Kitchens, Laundries, 

 Pantries and Closets carefully and skilfully con- 

 sidered.
