It would not bo bo If tho property- owner would always hire a skilled painter, and then really leave every thing to hint. Hut the house-owner BO often fools himself on one or the othet of these things. The Bkilled painter In every commu nlty has some of the most Incompetent competitors that ever vexed a consci entious workman or contractor, and the Incompetents get Jobs geuerally by working cheap. In tho next place, when tho skilled painter Is hired, they do not leave everything to him, as so many property-owners boast they do. They interfere most lgnorantly and most fatally. They Insist sometimes on using paint materials without in vestlgaUng whether they are good or not. Or perhaps they Insist on the painter's hurrying the work. "I'm not going to have that painter's mess uround my house a month," the wife says, nnd what wife says goes at tho cost of a lot of wasted painting money. If the painter stays away a few days lo allow tho paint to thoroughly dry the owner says: "That painter's neglecting this work guess he's side tracking me for Jones' work. I won't stand it." What chance does a palnterhave todo good work for a man who Is continually nagging ut him and otherwiao handi capping lil m (without meaning it, of course)?
