graphite Paint for Roofs

1t was the opinion of the members, at
the Fifth Annual Convention of Master
Painters, Harrisburg, January, 1892, that
that the best qualities of lead or mineral
paints will not last longer than two or
three years, and that most of them will
not last over one year. Graphite paint,
however, was most strongly recommend
ed. One member said he had used it on
a number of roofs, and one roof painted
Is years ago was not reprinted until last
fall. Another member said: Il painted
a roof IL years ago-I can see it every
day from my window-and from appear
ances it does not want anything more for
five or ten years to come" Such testi-
mony from master painters is worth care
full consideration. especially when it is
remembered that the cost of painting
lies chiefly in the money paid for labor
Graphite paint is manufactured by the
Joseph Dixon Crucible Co.. Jersey City
N. J., and they have some interesting
circulars on the subject, which they send
free on request.

THE lawbreakers of Jersey City are be-
ginning to realize that crime cannot go
on forever there without punishment at
some time or other. On Friday Judge
Lippincott sentenced two keepers of pop
ular saloons and pool 70 oms, who hereto
fore had enjoyed immunity from the law
on account of political pull. The men
had been arrested for selling on Sundays,
and the evidence was 30 strong that the
defendants pleaded guilty. The sentence
was fine of$25O each, and three months
Imprisonment. Judge Lippincott, among
9th er things, said:
ut requires a man of great physical
an d mental force to keep decent saloon
You do not possess these characteristics
and therefore you keep dives, incidental
it may be to the general sale of liquor in
your places and particularly incidental to
the sale upon Sunday These and kin
dred remarks. together with the impri
sonment, had terribly depressing effect
upon the dive keepers, who turned pale
and were Immediately turned over to the
jailor. 1t is gladstone thing to know
that the law is receiving some respect in
Jersey City, and when the court finds its
breath and puts away the ballot box stuff
fers there will be occasion for. the good
people up that way to hold jubilee.

Trenton, last week, was an enthusiastic
gathering. The meeting was largely at
tended and important business was trans
acted. The platform adopted has no I'M
certain sound it deals directly with the
issues before the people, and takes high
and firm stand. The resolutions declare
that the Republicans of New Jersey are
for honest money, for the Mckinley tar
iff, for reciprocity. and opposed to the
plundering methods of the Democratic
ring of the state. The platform also en-
dorses Harrison's administration. Every
intelligent voter cannot but endorse these
sound principles.
