You can't afford to paint your

house every year.-The manu-
facturer who makes up his mind to
produce a frst-class article, paint
for example,, and sells it at a rea-
sonable price, generally finds that
there is room in the market for his
productions. That a good article
recommends itself, and once a cus-
toner always a customer. This
has been the history of the Chiffon
Manuf. Co. Their paints have
stood the test of time and proved
their durability. What you want
is a paint that will stand exposure
to wind and rain and sun. You
cant afford to paint your house
every year, and you won't have to
if YOU use the Chiffon Paints. We
have a color card for you.

article. Col. c. j. Holt, who lee
turcd here ON July 23rd and from
the encouragement he received con-
tlnucd his lecture one week and hy
his eloquent pleading in behalf of
temperance and morality, has been
instrumental through the help and
work of the grand Christian work
ers Of the "Womens Christian
Temperance Union" in securing
signers to the pledge to the num-
Der of l4S. The leaders of the W.
c. L. L. in honor of the grand
work accomplished, gave recep-
ton on last Tuesday evening to
those who had signed the temper
ance pledge, and who wore the
badge, which was the blue ribbon,
which was most ENJOYABLE treat
to the many who assembled in the
grove surrounded by our three
churches and the school house with
the stars and stripes floating, and
the grounds LIT up ,bv dozens Of
Chinese lanterns and street lamps
with small bags waving from the
trees and Il full orbc1 moon send
ing her shimmcring rays through
the branches aud the fair ladies
fitting here and there serving out
such a bountiful supply Of ice
cream and cake, presented scene
that will live in lasting remem-
brauces to all that wore the blue
ribbon, and partook Of this sump-
tuous rcpast.
The evening was spent in enjoy
able conversation, and one of the
agreeable omissions was the tedious
speech-making. 1t was not u time
for gush, but for social pleasure.
There was something appropriate
in the sweetness of this collation.
given in the interest Of the temper
ance cause; for what is sweeter
than sobriety, and the peace and
harmony that follow in It's wake,
what is sweetcr than domestic tran
guilty that is so often disturbed by
the blight Of strong drink.
A tidal wave Of temperance en-
thusiasm has struck Deer Park
and our prayer Is that it may roll
up and down the hills OF Garrett
until the saloon crumbles under its
power.
