TIME is the highest authority on paint.

but from its decisions, though cklessly
rendered, there can be no appeal, and
consequently a decision once made can

unqualified endorsement to Masury's
Railroad Paint and has emblazoned its
testimonials on every house on which it
has been used, and paint-makers of every

Dear Sirs: sold w. B. Simmons one
of your famous "Rock Hill," Bnggies
some two weeks ago. His horse ran away
today, July 81, and run over saplins,
across bitches and against the fence.
Ran about one mile and did not break
anything except the singletree. The
buggy is just as good as when bought.
Did not as much as break the paint OH it..

Original of above on file in our office.
This is the second buggy that has
"cleaned up the woods' in ninety days.
Read this son last Saturday afternoon
a horse ran away with one of the famous
Rock Hill buggies, sold by Mr.. jeff Mill
sap, and went nearly five miles before
being stopped, many times quitting the
road and running through the woods
ut full speed, and once jumped from an
embankment eight feet high, and when
brought back to town the only thing
found to be broken was one shaft. This
is proof that the best is the cheapest." -

Nothing remarkable about this. We
use the best material obtainable, and do
the work as we'll as it can be done. Any
buggy will show same results if made
this way but the trouble about this is
that ANY BUGGY is not made this
way" There is not vehicle made that
will come up to the ROCK HILL at the

OF late there have come to the city

regard paid to the posters that the city
marshal had posted on tree and post
warning bicyclistS not to trespass on
the rights of American citizens by rid
ing on the sidewalks. The posters have
been up some time and it supposed that
the wheelmen and women have forgot
ten about them 90 or never saw them
BE that as it may the city marshal
tells the Journal that he has had MANY
complaints come to him of ladies riding
their wheels on the walks and he is
supposed to stop it, He says that as
posters do not seem to do any good he
will arrest the first man or woman that
he finds on a wheel on the walk. lie
will make an example OF such offenders
and keep on doing so until it is gen
orally conceded that he means bust
ness. In other words the city marshal
has the call on the wheelmen and
women and it is well to look out fol
him when you are out ON your wheel

Some Odd Travellers.

One Kind of emigrants our country
can't keep out although 1t fills all the
statute books with laws. These emf
grants are the weeds and they are as
fond of travelling from country t.
country and founding new settlements
AS their human neichbors. Professor
LyStef II. Dewey Of the United States
AGRICULTURAL department has made a
study of this subject He says that
weeds nearly always travel west. fol-
lowing the course of empire" They
so with the first settlers. and they are
always ready to emigrate to a new
land. There was the terrible Canad /
thistle, for instance. 1t emigratea
from Canada during the Revolutionary
Var with some hay brought down for
BurSoyne's army. From New York it
ercpt west until it has colony in near
ly every state in the Union.
Then there is the prickly buffalo
buir, a few years ago it was found
only III Mexico, Texas and some of the
other southwestern states. 1t grew in
stuck in the buffalos shaggy hair and
the seeds We're carried far to the north
and west. Thus it emgrated until the
buffalo was gone and then 1t chose
new ways of travelling The hurrs
caught in the tails of cows and in the
wool of sheep, and ii came out 10 SOP
chicago. stopping over at the stock
yards. Along the railroads on which
the cattle were brought Some of th,a
seeds were dropped, and there colonies
were started. After the plains were
Harmed 1t stole among the clover and
wheat, and u few of the seeds were
sent sent away with the crop, and they
soon found new homes, both east and
west. In this way the buffalo burr has
spread nearly all over the United
States.
10 you wonder that men are inter-
ested in the study of strange wander
ing OF plants? They find it almost as
Wonderful as the migrations of ami
mails or the settlement OF America by
the crowded-out inhabitants of the old
world.

He Wanted to See John L.

And he saw him. He was old. old
enough to be a greatgrandfather. but
he had heard a great deal about John
L. Sullivan, how he had once been the
champion pugilist of the world and was
a pretty good one yet, and he wanted
to see him. AS | have remarked he
saw. The old gentleman arrived in the
city on the morning train and gazed
around among the passengers at the
station but soon learned from by
stander that the big fellow had not
come along and probably would not
show up until the afternoon express.
The old enthusiast went down to
the city and hung around until after
dinner and then went back to the sta
ton. He sat around in enc place and
another until the express came along
and then no John L. showed up. He
made inquiries and was told that the
noted man was not on the train. The
old fellow was disappointed. He showed
it plainly He was afraid that the
candidate for the mayoralty of Boston
was not going to show up at all.
Finally someone told him that the
Hon. John L. had arrived in the city
on the noon express and had been
driven at once to his hotel The old
man then took a tour of the hotels to
see if he could catch a glimpse of the
candidate, but for a long time John
chung to his room. When the big fell
low came out of his room to go in to
supper the old man was on deck and
followed the visitor to the dining hall
door and then went home satisfied on a
late freight train.
