LETTER TO McALPIN ESTATE,
MOrriStOWn. N, j.

Dear Sir-You own several houses.
Your reason for painting DeVoe q Rey-
nold's lead and zinc should be several
times as strong as the man who owns
but one.
Lead and oil was good enough paint
till the merits of zinc We're found out.
1t was profitable to paint lead and oil
it was then-but not now.
The addition of zinc to lead makes
Deyoe & Reynolds lead and zinc last
twice as long and costs no more; costs
less--a trifie less, not much. Lead and
oil is mixed by hand; Devoe & Rey-
nolds lead and zinc by machinery
Might as well make ones shirts by hand
as mix paints Say it costs 800 house
to paint lead and oil; and it lasts three
years.
Say it costs the same for Devoe;which
lasts six years--it will last ten years in
favorable conditions, unless you want to
repaint to change the color.
The costs lead and oil about $50 q
year; D7voe $l5-probably less.
Yours truly,
f. W. Devoe & G. T. Reynolds Co.

LITERARY TOPICS.

The Chicago Tribune has published a
story on the authority of Mrs. John G..
Aldrich of 792 Monroe street declaring
on the word of Mrs. Aldrich that "The
Breadwinners, " which created a sensa-
ton in the early sos, was written by
Miss Harris of Champaign. ILL.,, who
died fortnight ago The Tribune says
that Miss Harris confded the secret of
the authorship to Mrs. Aldrich and babe
her not tell it until after Miss Harris's
death. According to the story only Miss
Harris's doctor and her lawyer (both I'M
named) knew that she was the author Of
the book. The facts were to be revealed
in her will, which appears not yet to
have been opened.
1.-THE Breadwinners" aroused interest
and great deal of feeling everywhere
when it was published. Few works
given to the public anonymously have
ELECTED greater interest or attention or
have had the secret of their authorship
so long and so well preserved. The
belief has been so persistent and per-
vasive that John Hay, the present Secre-
tary of State, wrote the book, as to have
come to be accepted as fact But Col.
Hay has never acknowledged the author
ship.
Richard Watson Glider said when the
Chicago Tribune story was shown to
him that as the authorship had always
been secret he did not feel that it
would be proper to say anything on the
subject now, particularly as, although
the story had first been published in his
magazine, the book was published by
the Harpers.
1T was the work of friend of a
friend of ours" Mr.. Glider said: "but
we think we know who wrote it.
If Miss Harris wrote the story it was
the work of a girl about 70 years old,
which most readers Of the story would
be loath to believe. The story called
out production intended to present the
other side of the problem, entitled, 1.-The
Moneymaker,' a much less vigorous
work, which never had the attention
that was accorded the first book.
An important Theological Summary of
the past hundred years will be published
by Prof. Walter F. Adeney, under the
title, "a Century of Progress in Reli-
gious Thought. Thomas Whitaker has
the work in preparation for immediate
publication.

Training BOYS for Athletes.

In training for any athletic sport
football, cricket, boat racing, or hare
and hounds-the process must be grad
ual. the walks or runs for short distances
at first, and increased according as the
boy feels himself improving in condi-
ton. On getting up in the morning tum-
BILE into your bath, sponge yourself thor
oughly well all over, and then rub dry
with good, rough towel till the body is
all in glow. AS soon as dressed go for
a sharp walk of half an hour, or brisk
run for as long as you are able and then
come back to breakfast. A mutton chop
or steak, some dry bread day old. and
a cup OF black tea complete the bill OF
fare, into which no butter IN any shape
or form should be introduced. Pepper
spices and sauces must be tabooed. In
the middle of the day comes an hour and
halfs walk or run, during which the
pace to be adopted should be increased
gradually. This part of the training is
most tlresome If one is without COM
panion to accompany him.
Dinner should follow soon after the
return from this-the severest- exercise
of the day. Mutton or roast beef should
be the piece de resistance of the repast.
Veal, pork, salt beef, bacon, duck and
wild fowls of all kinds are prohibited.
Chicken or cartridges may be served oc-
casionally; vegetables are out of the
question, also buildings, pies and sweets ;
bread and tea are allowed.
After dinner comes long rest, and by
and by another course of exercise should
be gone through. AS to the amount of
running or walking to be done in the
course of day, this is more matter for
the boy himself to decide depending as
it does upon the nature of the work or
contest for which he is preparing. This
is of course only an outline as to what
the young athlete should eat, drink and
avoid-the boy must do some thinking
for himself on the subject. Frances
Smith in Leslie's Weekly.

MARVELLOUS PERFORMANCES
OF lnanlmate Things According 10 General and
Accepted Spoken and Printed Expression.

The wind whistles and roars, the
waters run, the SHOWS fly, the thunders
roll, the waves leap, and the pillows
roar, rills and cascades sing and dance,
the fields smile, vines creep, rains pour,
lights fash, the horse laughs, and clocks
have hands. In melancholy mood the
tempest means, zephyrs sigh, brooks
murmur, the mountains frown and some
times look blue. There are hundreds of
people who have seen watch spring, a
rope walk, and horse fly. Others tes-
tify to the fact that they heard a mill
dam, cod fish bawl, saw an oyster fry,
a match box, a cat fish, peach blow, a
gun sling, a stone fence, cane break,
bank run, shoe shop, plank walk,
gum boil, the Pacific slope, and a uni
form smile.
We have ourselves seen sword fish,
and hogs skin boots, and IN Florida we
saw the alligator hide shoes, tree bark
and below as it commenced to leave,
holding on to its trunk, which an excited
landlord was en- ndeavoring to keep for
board. And onlya few days ago some
little boys up near the capitol were
watching buds shoot, cab stand, house
sign, an orange peel, and while at Allan
tic City last summer one little fellow
saw the ocean swell, the suris play, the
tide go out, the sea gulls cry, and Chin
ney smoke.
