Letter TO y. n. Dale.

Dear Sir: Rockland, Maine is sea
coast town; hard place for paint. About
seventeen years ago, Farrand, Spear Co.
Rockland, began with Devoe. Then
first sale was to paint the Harrington
residence, well known there.
Mr.. Farrand says the house appears
from the street, to be well painted now,
and has never been reprinted.
We should like to know more def.
nitely about job of paint that has
lasted seventeen years on a seaside
house. 1t is the longest time We have
had report
Lead aud oil lasts three years. first
rate iob-aud nobody says it lasts
longer. We are content to say that d. :
voc lead and zinc lasts twice as long; but
We know of houses innumerable, on
which our paint has exceeded six years.
Yours truly,

A New Departure.

There are but few stores in any
country town that has so many nice
things in it in proportion to its size than
the store of A. A. Pomeroy. The
reason for this fact is not hard to find.
Mr.. Pomeroy is thoroughly up to date
himself and he knows what kind of
articles his customers want in the gen
tlemen's furnishing line. Consequently
he buys with judgment and discrimina-
ton, sells quickly and gets in more
goods of the very latest pattern. Last
Saturday with commendable enterprise
he opened ladies furnishing store
where the stock is all fresh and well Sc
lected, and where the price is right
This new branch of his business is under
the management of Miss Katherine
H. Bennett from Derby Line, who has
made tasteful arrangement of the new
60 DDS. We imagine this new venture
will prove successful, for the ladies will
certainly appreciate Mr.. Pomeroy's ell
deavors to cater to their wants,

A Successful Baseball Season

Island Ponds base ball season was
most successful in every respect, and the
directors are to be congratulated there
upon. The Cardinals played good ball,
were gentlemanly in their department,
and were encouraged and well supported
by our townspeople. Pitcher Howard
was certainly the peer of any of the
pitchers opposed to him. He pitched
great ball. During the season they
played 10 games, winning all but two.
The directors did not have to send out
of town for players, and when our boys
were defeated they were pitted against
better teams. We believe they can hold
their own against any team of all home
players in this and adjoining counties.
Notwithstanding that all but one of
the games have been played at home,
thereby involving heavy expense, when
the season closed the association was
free from debt and there was consid-
cradle balance in the treasury which
will be expended in improving the
grounds. The Cardinals had every con-
fidence in their manager, G. Louis Cane,
obeyed him implicitly, and the good will
manifested between them and him was
pleasing feature and contributed
largely to the successful result above in.
dictated. We are all proud of the work
