! .-■■! ! I f 1 ! THE protection and beauty depend much upon the paint you use ; but if you specify "High Standard" you have the certainty of permanent colors and long - wear. The product of forty years of scientific paint-making, testing and using, it has steadily proved to be the paint that gives best results. This is because the materials are the finest the market affords ; because they are pro- portioned with scientific accuracy and care, and mixed and ground by the most modern machines. And remember — It's Not the Price per Gallon but the Years of Service that determines the cost of your painting. The greater spreading power of High Stand- ard makes it go farther; its strength and covering power give better and longer pro- tection from the elements, and the richness and permanency of the colors give a beauty that endures. It is the economical paint, as time always proves. High Standard Paint a Good Investment Every dollar you spend in painting with Lowe Brothers High Standard Paint now will save you ten times as much depreciation in the value of your house in the next five years. Figure the interest return; would any business man be guilty of neglect ? For the interiors use "Soft as the Rainbow Tints " the most beautiful of all flat wall finishes. The artistic beauty of Mellotone makes it a necessity in the finest rooms, while the fact that it is washable, sanitary and durable, gives it a special value for bedrooms, dining- room, kitchen, bathroom, etc. Far more desirable than calsomine, and more sanitary than paper, it is more economical than either when length of service is considered. For the woodwork use Linduro Enamel the highest grade enamel made, and a very popular finish for the better homes. It is very tough and durable and does not crack, chip or easily mar. Suitable for either gloss or rubbed finish.
