Letter to II. F. Walter,
MIDDLEBURGH, PA,

Dear Sir: There are two sorts of fur
niture. You know both; for you sell
'em both. One sort looks better than
1t is, and the other is better than it
looks. There isn't any other sort.
The same, two sorts of paint, no
more; and we make 'em both-we
make tons of stuff that isn't worth Its
freight Belongs to the business-have
to. Belongs to your business-you have
to.
But this Is aside. We put into cans
with our name on, the very best paint
there is in the world: Devoe lead and
zinc. 1t is twice as good as lead and
oil: Lasts twice a. long. And we take
the risk Of it-there isn't any risk.
Yours truly,
F. w. DEv0E 4 Co.

this indoor picnic occurred. The day was mild,
the snow had all melted off the ground and
the bare boughs Of the trees alone seemed to
make the earth look dreary.
At ten a. the children came, and left at
about nine p. M. All of the amusements were,
to say the least. of the most amusing sort Some
children were upstairs, some down, and the
rest were scattered here and there all over the
house. Opening door at the head of the re-
ception room, at first thought the room was
deserted; but on closer observation I found it
occupied by one solitary girl, who was all curled
