Letter to n. {. Davis.

Dear Sir; There was time when 1t
paid painter to paint lead and oil, and
fight shy OF anything else. That was
when the market was full of poor paints.
aud zinc was unknown.
Now zinc has come in. lead and oil
must give way-it is too short lived.
There are two ways to use zinc; you
can mix it in with lead in tub. or buy
Deyoe lead aud zine, which is ground
together by machinery.
If you mix your own lead aud zinc.
you gain something; If you buy Deyoe
yon gain more, because machinery does
better work than hand mixing, Expert
ence is worth something We've. had
li6 years of it.
Yours truly,
Is +. w. Deyoe & Co.

ST. JAMts CnI,RCn nALAR.

The annual bazaar in aid of the Church
of st. James, held at the opera house
hall every evening last week was a great
success, as may be inferred from the
fact that the receipts amounted to about
$500. \ splendid supper was served
each evening which was readily patron
lied, and music and entertainment was
also provided. Thursday evening Fr
Lynch gave his lecture, with stereopticon
views, on the celebrated hook "In His
Steps," which was received with much
pleasure. \ feature of the entertain
ment Thursday evening was the singing
of "The Holy City" by Miss Katherine
Dugan of st. .Johnsbury, who sang with
much expression and grace. Frank o.
French, also of st. Johusbury, made
decided hit in his character songs and
sketches and kept his audience in a
roar. The singing Friday evening by
the Lamperti Quartette of st, ,johnsbury
was greatly appreciated, their voices
blended admirably, and the piano solos
and duets by Misses Ryan and Glyn,
members of the luartette, were very ac-
ceptable. as was the reading 10y the lat
ter young lady. Miss Dugan the leader
of the quartette was heard to much adj
vantage in Ave Maria. She sings with
much simplicity which adds a charm to
her fine voice and good method. Miss
Welfoot, also member of the quartette,
and suffering under grievous affection,
almost blind, gave two violin solos in a
manner that attracted great interest; her
playing meritcd the plaudits bestowed.
The mandolin playing by Mr.. Weston
these two evenings added much to the
general enjoyment. Local talent too
was seen and heard to the best advan-
tage,and every one present was delighted
with the excellence and high character
of the music furnished 10y the orchestra.
The music was an agreeable surprise to
all, and many compliments are freely
bestowed. The contest for the gold
watch was a close and exciting one, the
winner, Miss Lee, having collected nearly
s. more than the other candidate, Miss
st. Pierre. The latter young lady was
by Fr. Trottier generously presented
with nice bracelet. The sum Of Slll.S5
was realized from this contest. He and
all interested are to he congratulated
upon the fact that the hazar was, from
every point of view, socially, artistcally
and financially, a decided success.
