Letter to Chas. Duffy,
Butler. Pa.

Dear Sir: You own several houses
Your reason for painting Devoe lead
and zinc should be several times as
strong as the man who owns but one.
Lead and oil was good enough paint
TIL the merits of zinc were found ont.
IL was profitable to paint lead and oil -
1t was then-but not now.
The addition Of zinc to lead makes
Devoe lead and zinc last twice as hong
and cost no more; costs less--a trifie
less, not much. Lead and oil is mixed
ny hand; Devoe lead and zinc by ma
chlnery, Might as well make ones
shirts by hand as mix paints. Saw il
costs 500 house to paint lead and oil;
and II lasts three years
Say it costs the same for Devoe;whicb
lasts six years 1T will last ten wears in
favorable conditions, unless You want
to repaint to change the color.
The costs: lead and oil about $50 .
year; Devoe $15-probably less.
Yours truly, 81.

Grand Opera House, pittsbmg.

The return Miss Victoria Bateman

Miss Bateman in Sue this week is
making one of the most pronounced hits
ever known in Pittsburg, and the Opera
House is doing q great business, Miss
Bateman IS magnetic little woman.
She is artistic in her work. and is cap
able OF playing emotional and tragic
roles as well as comedy. In fact. she
has nearly every sort of work in Sue"
that might fall TO an actress in q whole
season of stock. The character of Sue
is complex one, and the ingenuousness
of the girl does not render her incapable
OF the height of dramatic feeling Miss
Bateman is more than satisfactory.
She is great Her appearance has been
nothing less than a triumph. All the
favor that she won when with the

We Give 16tO1

NJ and always have. In sell
= ing goods over the coun-
ter we give you sixteen
- ounces to one pound and
down weight at that. There
is a very common error
abroad as to druggist $
weights, many believing
that when they buy Cream
Of Tartar, Borax, Sulpher
or any of the thousand and
one items that druggists
sell they get Apothecaries
weight-I2 ounces to the
pound. This is an error;
we give you Avoirdupois
weight, 10 ounces to the
pound. Apothecaries
weight is used only in pre-
scriptlons or in the prepar-
alton of medicinal prepara-
tons. One pound Apoth-
ecary consists cf IL ounces
Of 48o grains each, a total
of $500 grains to the
pound. One pound Avoir-
dupois consists of sixteen
ounces of 457a grains each,
a total of 1000 grains to
the pr md. The Avoirdu-
Pois pound is heaviest by
24o grains, because it con-
tains sixteen Avoirdupois
ounces. You get 7ooo-
grain pounds here and the
finest quality of drugs that
money will buy.
