“We have already given a favorable report upon these paints, and a year’s additional wear confirms the opinion 
formerly expressed. To meet the demand caused by new styles in decoration, the U. W. Johns Co. have 
brought out a variety of ‘'fashionable” shades which will allow every style of outside and inside decoration 
to he done with these, that is possible with common paints.”— American Agriculturist, April, 1881.
