The Frye Shipping Bill.

Speaking of the revamped Frye shipping
bill, Senator Frye says: Personally, l
think the old bill was the best subsidy bill
that could be drawn, but some of our asso-
ciates, friendly to the principle involved,
did not think so and SO shall do everything
in reason to meet their wishes. Events are
ito n. Our trade with the Philippines and
the East reveals how handicapped we are
by our dependence on foreign companies,
believe that the subsidy project is much
stronger before the people than year ago,
an dthat satisfactory bill will become law

Letter to M. w. WEIGH.
Belfast, Maine.

Dear Sirs There is going to be, from
now on, in Belfast good deal of painting
done, that will last in good condition from
years up-1O years is common; we know
of it good in 10; and we know no limit-it
seems to be likely to last as long as the
house lasts, in favorable conditions.
The painter that uses this paint will get
all the business he can do.
Devoe lead and zinc is the paint. 1t looks
as good as any; costs no more; and is ready
no tinting or mixing to do.
The zinc is ground in with the lead by
machinery-yOu can't do that.
Test it yourself, If you like but there's
plenty of evidence for it. We take the
risk of how it turns out there is no risk.
Do you want this work?
Yours truly,
- F. w. DEvoE & Co.

DIR. Wares letter in the Times a week

az Henley regatta has lighted q candle
IN England and many rowing men are
pronolncIng in favor OF combining the en-
tries TO the regatta to the British islands.
Inc Chronicle says. Had we been beaten
IN the recent race for the Grand Chai-
Ienge cup there might have appeared
something coWardiy in shrinking
from foreign competition. but we have
Vlndicated our superiority and can. with
rernatiOnal contests in rowing are desira-
Bile. as very likely they are. the Henley
course is the place for them and the Hem
lev regatta the time.
ITO both questions we think tne answer
is negative
We wish to hint no discourtesy to our
American visitors. who rOWed some fine
races and proved themselves second only
to our best available amateur crew OF
them We have no complaint to ma Ike. ex
cept that as Or Ware suggests. they
are inclined to make TOO serious busi-
ness Of what we regard only an Occa-
siOnal paStlzne, but il the American unf-
versities are admitted to Henley other
non British competitors can hardly be ex-
Guided
..If we are dared TO vindfeate our grip
swing and stay against the world We
must train an interna tional crew over an
international course, but If that be de-
sirable Henley is not the place or time
for it.
1.-The regatta is in It's essence a week
or two OF pastime in the interval between
serious occupations. and we hope it willy
remain So.
