LETTER TO b. j. CRANE,
MOrriSfnMn. N Il

Dear Sir Some think we take a good
deal of risk in inviting complaints of
Devoe & Reynolds lead and zinc-we
authorize our agent to sell it under this
guarantee.
eff you have any fault to find with
this paint, either now in putting it on, OF
hereafter in the wear, tell your dealer
about it,
We authorize him to do what is right
at our expense
The following story tells how little the
risk is:
j. H. Asher & Co., hardware dealers,
Rhinebeck, N Y, have sold our paint
from rs to now, and have had lust one
complaint in all this time.
Three sides of house were perfect:
the fourth was as bad as the three were
good.
Explanation rained the night be-
fore the fourth side was painted; and
the painters didn't didn't wait for the
wood to dry.
What is done in such case? What
ever the dealer, who sold the paint, con-
siders it fair to do We leave it to him.
He may not do exactly what we should
do if we were there; but we are not
there. The best we can do is to leave il
to him.
Yours truly.
F.W .DEvoE & CT. RAYNoLDs Co.
P. S. = George E. Voorhees, and
Thatcher & Pantaneius sell our paint in
your section.

Lackawanna Notes.

Every employee of the Lackawanna
has received blank which must be
filled in and returned to the Company.
Among several pertinent questions are
''Do you use intoxicants and of what
kind and to what extent" "Do you be.
long to any labor organization and if SO
give the name"
General Superintendent T. E. Clarke,
in recent interview said: During the
last sixty days and especially the last
few weeks, we have secured about fifty
new engines for freight, passenger and
switching services. This places us in
excellent shape, as this supply of new
engines will stand the strife for many
months. They were built at the Schen-
ectady Locomotive works, where we
have placed another large order. We
do not expect any more engines, how
ever, until October or November.
"We are now in position to carry
all our traffic including the Pan-Amer-
lean for at least three months. without
the men who are on strike. We have at
present sufficient employees for our needs
and when we want more we will get
them. Every new man means one
place less for the old employees"
