The Idea of “Painting Up” is a Good One but the important thing is to choose a Paint that pro- tects and endures—then you have painted to good pur- pose—and with proper economy. Use— “Murco” Liquid Paint —and you'll always be glad you did. It will give you absolufely satisfactory results in every way. “Murco” is the “Lifelong Paint” you know—which means you won't have to repaint so often—and therefore the cost is materially less. “Murco” is pure Paint—100% pure lead, linseed oil, turpentine and Japan drier—scientifically mixed—for practical use.
