A RELIGIOUS SIGN PAINTER.
Some Curious Combinations on fences
and Dead Walls.

dEa lpSAu "ahs.
The town of Attleboro is in state
OF excitement relative to the action of
some crank who is painting On the
fences and curbstones Of the streets
sentences which tend to startle the
nervous, says the Boston Herald.
North Main street and the streets on
the boulevard have been decorated
with such questions as these: Are
you ready for the bridegroom" "Do
you want to fee from the wrath to
Gomez Care you ready for Jesus?"
Now repent, fear God"
These sentences are done in black
paint, and the letters are two or more
inches in length. The owners of the
fences which have been SO decorated
entered complaint to the town au-
thorities. The selectmen voted to en-
ploy On officer to ferret out the painter
and bring him before the court
On the other hand, some of the
church people say that the one who
paints the religious warnings on the
fences has as much right to do SO as
the patent medicine men have to adj
vertise in similar manner their pills
and bitters. One of the clothing
houses in Boston had stenciled on
fence in town: "Do you wear pants?"
and following this the religious painter
had put the words: "You had better
repent"
