IMPORTANT PACTS ABOUT HOUSE PAINTING The KlnJ of Paint to Use; How to Apply It* and How to Get Attractive Color Combinations* THE KIND OP PAINT TO USE* HERE are three classes of house punt to choose from-- T good prepared paint, honestly and correctly mixed by ma chinery, ready for use; white lead and oil, bought sep arately and mixed -for use by hand; and poor, low priced prepared paint made* by those who are willing to sacrifice quality, and true economy, in order to sell "cheapo Good prepared paint is-the best to tise. That it is better than the "cheap", low qualvy^paiatr goes without saying. It is also much better than hand' mixed lead and oil, as the follow ing statements will show, Some thirty odd years ago hand.mixing of white lead and linseed oil was the only way <S? malting house-paint. _In those days The Sherwin-Wimams Company wonld have recommended it to you and Would have told you how to be careful about the quality.of the lead and the purity of the oil. But youwould have had to do the roixingyoufself or get'a painter to do.it, and no matter how good the lead or fiow-pore the'oil you would stilt have had an unutisfactoiy paint. Lead and oil when applied* to. a surface soon lose their lustre and powder and chalk badly on-account oHKe saponifi cation of the oil. FuitKcr than this, hand mixing can not thoroughly andproperly incorporate the lead with the oil. Since those days the quality and character of white lead have not improved any, but two other important improvements have been made. First, it was discovered that the chalking and powdering of white lead could be overcome br the addition ot_ oxide of zinc--a pigment that produces a harder surface, is whiter, com bines better with the oil, keeps its lustre longer and spreads farther than the lead. Oxide of zinc alone would not make a satisfactory house paint any more than white lead alone, but the two, when properly combined, give excellent results. The second important improvement is the substitution of machinery for hand work, by which the oil and pigment become more intimately united and the pigment more finely ground-- two very vital points in the making of good paint. With these marked advantages good prepared paint is rapidly displacing lead and oil, not only for house painting, but also in the large railway paint shops, in marine painting, and other places where the best and most economical results are required, and where the truth about paint values is thoroughly understood. There are only three reasons why lead and oil ate now used at all---the fixed habit of tome who are slow to change from old methods to new; the prejudice of those who have been fooled by the "cheap", low quality paints; and the fact that the makers of white lead resent the introduction of oxide of zinc as a paint pigment and continue to urge the use of lead and oil alone in order to keep up the proportion of lead used. In the manufacture of t h s SdtfttN-V/tLUAf4S Pain t . Prepared (8; W. P.), it has been out aim from the start to give The best good prepared paint made. a paint of such unquestioned quality as to be its own best ar gument against habit, prejudice and competition. It is a cor rect combination of pure white lead, pure oxide of sine and pure linseed oil. It is ground and mixed with the greatest skill aod care and will give die largest amount of satisfaction to the user, in durability, appearance, spreading qualities and economy. We have believed in the economical value of pre pared house paint and hare always made but the one quality-- the beat that can be produced. As a result we have built up the largest paint business in the world, requiring five big factories, inCfeveland, Chicago, Newark, Montreal, and London, Eng., with offices and ware houses in the principal cities and thousands of retail agencies. There is no other paint so widely known and used. Its pop ularity is the best argument that can be advanced in favor of good prepared paint. We maintain the quality of 8. W. P, by controling most of our raw materials and by manufacturing at so favorable a cost and in such large quantities that we never have to sacrifice quality to get a right selling price. We operate our own lead and sine mines and smelters, make all our own linseed oil, manufacture our own dry colors, design and build all our paint machinery, make all our tin cans and packing cases, and print out- own labels. In these ways we arc able to put into the quality of S.W.P. the profits that would otherwise go to outsiders In the purchase of materials. We are also able to get better quality and uniformity of materials. The splendid quality of linseed oil we are able to pro duce in our mills is, alone, sufficient to give 8. W. P. a great advantage over any other paint. To sum it all up, there is no possible way of making a paint that is better than 8. W. P, It will wear longer, hold its gloss longer, look belter, cover more surface and prove more economical than any other paint. HOW TO APPLY PAINT. OMPLETE directions for the use of 8. W, P. are given C oo each package, but we give here some of the principles of good painting ehat are necessary to obtain best results. A good job of painting is the sum of three factors--good paint, good surface, and good painter. We can furnish the paint only. , W recommend the employment of x practical hour1* painter wherever 'll ispoaaible. See that the surface U free from grease and soot. If the job ha* bees previously Delated and is peeling, scaling off, or cracking, burn off aU tbe old paiaL If this is not done,Jhe new coat ofpaint cannot Tie expected to stick. See that the surface is pgrfeftl; dry. Moisture U vKat often causes Mistering, cracking, scaling and like troubles. Moisture i always present ia green or pitchy lumber, and after rain, a heavy dew, or a fog. Do not paint over pitchy surface* aad expect satisfactory results.

For detailed directions for th* use of THE 8MKWm-8fHUAMt Pnmat or 6. IV. P., lee top label on each pack age. For best results on new work, apply one coztq C8fftAWlN-WtlLtAMf PltlMCK, (light or dark, as is required by the finishing color demanded) and two coats \ of paint. It is false economy to use only two Coat* of paint on new work. Don't expect best results ualen you use a primer and two coats. Apply the paint in thin eoats. Crush it out thoroughly. Any paint pot on teo thick is liable to crack aad peel, and is responsible for more unsnti*factory results than any other one cause, - Do not let one coat of paint stand for any length of time before applying the next cost sad expect good results. Each cost must be applied one after the other In reasonable tame if long wear is expected. HOW TO GET GOOD COLOR COMBINATIONS.
