Letter to c. ]. Goodnough.
Emporium, Pa

Dear Sir: Rockland, Maine, is sea-
coast town: hard place for paint. About
seventeen years ago, Farrand, Spear
& Co., Rockland, began with Devoe.
Their first sale was to paint the Far
rington residence, we'll known there.
Mr.. Farrand says the house appears,
from the street, to be well painted
now, and:has never been repainted.
We should like to know more def
nitely about a job of paint that has
lasted seventeen years on seaside
house. 1t is the longest time we have
had report on.
Lead and oil lasts three years-a first
rate job-and nobody says it lasts long
er. We are content to say that Devoe
lead and zinc lasts twice as long: but
we know of houses innumerable, on
which our paint has exceeded six
years.
Yours truly,
20 F. w. DEvoE & Co.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox advises young
man who intends to marry, to study
the girl and find out If she is the one he
wants. Ella need not have gone to the
trouble to give such advice. Young
men have been pursuing that same sort
of study from time immemorial, and
notwithstanding their Investigations
and observations, they have invariably
failed to learn the truth until after
marriage. In life there is nothing
more complex or difficultt to understand
than a young woman-unless it be a
young man. n.-Bradford Era.

In Answer to rlany Inquiries.

On the 26th of December friends
were startled to learn that Mrs. Morris
Lewis was lying in deep sleep, from
which it seemed unable to rouse her.
DR.. Smith was called. He decided it
was general breaking up of the
whole system, and said her condition
was precarious, but not hopeless. She
continued in this state until the follow
ing Monday, when she rallied, and we
had every hope of her recovery. On
Wednesday she sank back into coma
tose state again, and continued so up
to the hour Of death, Jan. 3, 1901.
Mrs. Lewis was the oldest of eight
sisters, being 73 years and some
months of age; a quiet, conscientious
woman. Since her husbands death,
some three years ago, has has lived a
very retired life.
She was possessed of comfortable
farm home and here dispensed such
lavish hospitality, that it become the
resort of many INDECENT persons My
sister, you cast your bread upon the
waters, and many rise up to-day and
call you blessed. While it broke our
heart to lose you, our loss was your
gain.
In decided contrast to the older
sister, was our fair-faced sister, Mrs.
Goodwin. She enjoyed active life to a
Of in n fa
Church work was her delight. Christ
mas festivities, socials, innocent mer-
ry makings always found an advocate
in her.
The frosts of sixty winters had
bleached the hair, but had never aged
the heart of our merry sister Sue.
Though very much worn by atten-
dance on our deceased sister, she, as
was her wont, braved all and went to
see sick relation for whom she had
grave fears. Seeing she had but a
short lease of life remaining, Susan
approached her as to the future, and
gained her consent to see II minister.
No messenger handy, she took that
long walk up to the Wesleyan parson-
age and sent a man of God to COM
plete the work she had begun, point
ing an erring one to a merciful Savior
This was her last we'll day, when
gently chided for over fatigue, ans
wered, 81 could not wait one moment,
when precious soul was to be saved.
The blessed assurances Flora left, will
be ample recompence if my life goes
out at this time" Lost her life in the
salvation of soul. Oh! my sister,
empty handed ye did not go into the
presence of your God. Pneumonia
did its fatal work, after an illness of a
few days.
Dear friends, wish I could paint for
you the death scene, as her husband
placed the last kiss ON her chilling lips.
Such an ecstatic smile broke over her
face Our grief was swallowed up in
awe. "Safe in the arms of Jesus -
burst from her husbands stricken heart
and her spirit had fed. The cry to
just go with her, found echo in many
hearts. Oh! my brother, to go with
her, means not to go from life into
death, but to pass from death into life,
in the beautiful city of God.
Mrs. Peterson, youngest daughter
of the deceased, will pass the winter
with her stricken father and brother.

Minstrels.

There was gathering of minstrel low
ers that packed the Opera House TO the
doors last night, that assembled to pay
court to Barlow and Wilson's Minstrels,
as they appeared on their annual engage
ment. The performance consisted en-
tirely of modern minstrel attractions
The people went to witness the fin de
steele minstrels OF the season, and found
them leaders by several lengths, tor
everything went fast enough to keep the
most lively on the qui vive. Their eff
cient agent told the truth when he said
that the company was better this year
than ever before. The performance
abounds in new features, which kept the
audience in a continual state of hilarity
the hit of the evening being made by the
"Great Barlow and Wilson. The vo-
cal numbers are gems of the first water.
The company is far superior to the usual
standard attraction. Cincinnati Enquirer.
This company will be at the Opera
House on Thursday night, Dec. Io;h.
