HOWL0NG WILL IpLASTg

We have frequently been asked how long our
roofing will last, and we answer by saying that
every person knows that long as iron does
not rust 1t will last, and it is kept painted it
will not rust. There is never any wear on the
under side to wear the paint off, and if the up
per side is painted every ten or twelve years,
we do not see any reason to prevent its lasting
one hundred years. sffr--.s IL
Our roofing is all made in the factory, and put
up in packages of 100 square feet, painted on
both sides, cleats and paint enough to give it
one heavy coat after the roof is laid.

General Languor.

Among the list of distinguished military
heroes the names of General Languor or
Debility do not appear. Yet, it is a well |
authenticated fact, that there are times
when the pulse lies low i'll the bosom and
beats feebly in the arteries. The spirit OF |
the individual is sleepy, and the whole ten /.
demcy of the body is toward rest and decay. !
At such times and during such seasons, the
system need toning up by the use of some
good and pure tonic which will restore the
organs to their wonted state. Such tonic
is found in Per,ad. which is acknowledged
by all to be the very thing to put these ia
nous generals to rOut, and to ultimately
conquer them. Read the following testi-
monial, which shows in what estimation
Peruno is held. and then send for the book

Slate.roofing is very costly, all things being
considered Slate roofing will crack by freezing
and thawing, and from heat of adjacent fires
will crumble and slide, and will blow OFF. Six
or seven times as heavy as iron, it requires q
strong and expensivestrueture:to bear up, and
an extreme pitch, which makes large amount
of surface; they.of cause building to settle

always greater than iron roofing. Slate roofs
