PAINTING sHINGLE ROOFS is strongly adyo-

yer! sensible:-The true way to paint roof is
to apply paint of some kind to both sides of the
shingles. 1T quite as important that the under

drawn up between the courses by capillary az,
traction. If good shingles are painted on both

than loo years. When roofs are not painted
moss Is liable 10 collect at the butts of every
course oil shingles, which promotes their decay
more rapidly than alternate rain and sunshine
When OIL paint is used for painting shingles il
Is always better to employ some light color
rather than black, as the apartments of tho
attic story, beneath black roof are liable +,
be uncomfOrtably hot in the summer; and. more
than this, as black paint absorbs more hea. than
any other color, neither the paint nor the
shingles VIII endure as long as if the roof had
been covered with some light-colored paint. A
metallic roof covered with lixht-eolored paiut
will Last much longer than if it had bee paiutad
with black paint. The most economical paint
iOr roof Is generous coat OF coal-tar once i'm
few years; but coal-tar will color the water for
hve years after coat is applied TO the roof.
