We've studied buying and selling this class of goods for the past dozen years and during. that time have learned many of the ins and outs of a business that has altogether too many of these ins and outs. Sometimes we have paid for the knowledge and perhaps many times our customers have stood the cost. Be that as it may, the knowledge must be gained somehow and now that we have gained a fair share of it, we want to help use it to your advantage. Early last fall we bought a year supply of Adam's Paint Brushes direct from Adam's. Since that time the price on all bristle goods has advanced from IS to SO per cent. Here's one line of goods on which we will not be forced to raise the price for at least six months. We'll have them in our windows in a few days take a look at them. . Recently we bought a supply of Sherwin Williams pure Linseed Oil. The same oil as is used in making their celebrated mixed paints. This oil of course, costs somewhat more than ordinary Portland oil, but when you want something you can bank on something absolutely pure we have it in any quan tity and at a very reasonable price. We have a complete paint store and you're welcowe to any knowledge we may have. 50OOO0O0?
