LETTER TO ". 4. BOYER.
BARRE, VI.

Dear Sir; One coat OF Devoe is bet.
ter than two of mixed paint.
The American House, at Tanners.
Vile, (Catskill Mts.), N. Y, Chas. l..
Wiltse, had two coats OF Mixed Paint
five years ago; last year had two coats
Of the same
Owner was going to use Devoe but
got bis Mixed Pa Mt few cents less.
Right across the street, Chas. Haner
painted ore coat OF Devoe at the same
time-last spring.
The Haner house is the better job;
but wait five years.
The point OF the story is that WilSte
is sorry already. He has learned
something that not one man in thou
sand knows-that gallon OF one
kind OF paint can contain twice as
much paint as a gallon OF an other kind
of paint.
You can IT afford to put on another
paint even if you have 1t given to you.
At the same time, you see, that
Mixed Paint appears to have worn five
years-give the devil his due.
Yours truly,
F W. Devoe & Co.
P. S. Reynolds & Son sell our paints.

LIFE GUARDS.

The Life Guards are two regiments
of cavalry forming part Of the British
household troops. They are gallant
soldiers, and every loyal British heart
is proud of them. Not only the Kings
household, but yours, ours, evtrybody's
should have its lie guards. The need
of them is especially great when the
greatest foes of life, diseases, find allies
in the very elements, as colds, influenza
catarrh, the grip and pneumonia do in
the stormy month Of March. The
best way that we know Of to guard
against these disease is to strengthen
the system with Hoods Sarsaparilla
the greatest of all life guards. 1t re-
moves the conditions in which these
diseases make their most successful
attack, gives vigor and tone to all the
vital organs and functions, and i'm
parts a genial warmth to the blood.
Remember the weaker the system the
greater the exposure to disease. Hoods
Sarsaparilla makes the system strong.

In shining colors of light and love,

WHAT SHALL WE Do
WITH OUR BOYS?

"The changes" says President Da-
vid Starr Jordan, "in social and in
dustrial conditions will make it each
year harder for the unframed man to
find Pre- Fl able employment. At the
same time there never was time
when a young man, sober and indus
trious, and trained to do things, was
So much in demand. The time is
coming when tue unskilled laborer
will have no place of any kind in the
industrial system. A bucket of coal
and bucket of water will do his
work, and do it better. The laborer
must put brains INTO his work, and
brains will always he in demand.
There cannot be too much education.
even among laborers, if it be education
in the direction of effectiveness, and an
effective man will never find the world
overcrowdcd. So far rs vocations are
concerned, there is>room enough in al
most any Of them, if one is ready to do
the best work he can. But there is
no vocation that will keep man in
whiskey very long, and there is none
that will give him leisure to do poor
work, and do it in q dishonest fashion.
The tightening lines Of social develop
ment make it harder and harder to
keep step for the man who doesn't
try"
United States Commissioner W. L.
Harris says: "The question of what
boy shall do is one that may be an
swered in general way by a glance
at the evolution of human vocations.
The more applications Of machinery
the less laborers are needed in the de-
partments where narrow, special edu-
cation will suffice, and the more la
borer is required to have a general and
humane culture. This doctrine con-
tains a cheering gospel Of final eman-
cipation from drudgery. The only
condition attached to it is that all
should be educated. 1t becomes the
interest of the selfish man as we'll as
the ideal of enlightened philanthropy
to have every member of society SO in
telligent that he can find his vocation
in higher order of human occupa-
tions. The history of industry goes
back to time when only one in a
thousand of The able bodied popula-
ton could be spared for the creation of
ornament or the ministry Of culture.
Great progress had been made when
one in hundred could be spared for
such purposes. The United States
and Great Britain have reached {, point
where five in hundred laborers are
actually pursuing vocations that have
for their object the addition of orna-
mcnt to what is already useful. When
the ratio is reversed, and only five in
hundred are required to provide the
crude necessaries, and the remnant of
society may devote itself to the higher
order of occupations, the economic
problem will be solved. Hence con-
slant readjustment of vocations is ne
cessary, and all laborcrs who are
mere hands work at continually
growing disadvantage

OBJECT LESSON IN LYING.

A mother overheard her nursegirl
talking to the little child she was put
ting to sleep, and among other legends
of the nursery in which she INDUCED
was this: "If you don't go right to
sleep this very minute: a great, big
awful, black bear, with eyes like Goals
of fire. and sharp white, cruel teeth,
will come out from under the bed and
eat YOU all up!' The poor little
thing nestled down under the clothes
to dream of horr:d bears eating her
up.
That night, when the stolid nurse
had composed herself in her own COM
Portable bed and had put the lamp out.
there came sudden tap at the door,
and the voice of the mistress called
loudly through the panels Maggie!
Get up as quick as you can. There's
a burglar under your bed T. At the
word "gurglar" the girl sprang scream
ing from her bed, tore open the door
and fell into Mysteries in the hall. The
lesson was more instructive than the
mistress designed, but when the girls
fears had calmcd she said to her "I on
did not hesitate to tell my little, deli
cate child, who could not possibly
know that it was lie, a cruel story Of
a bear under her bed now, when |
treat YOU TO tie same kind of story,
you are nearly frightened to death.
Tomorrow you can so into the kitch-
en- and work there. You are not fit
to care for little children"

Sflut HisrriIunq.
Treasures Of the Evil One.

Very many years ago-so far back
that | cannot give precise dates-one
Mcnicc. surnamed "the hunter" be-
cause lie made hunting the business of
his lie, found himself late one evening
on Mt. Arzin. where he had tarri, d,
not noting he fl ght OF the hours in
tie excitement OF the chase.
The night was comparatively dark,
Tor though the stars were out they
gave but little light. AS the very
hest thing to do under the circum-
stances, he was seeking the narrow,
and stony path That led to his habta-
ton, when suddenly there appeared to
his startled eyes reddish light be-
tween two trees.
Menico did not know what fear was;
vet, at this unusual sight, he felt a cold
chill coming over him. His teeth chat
tered and he tremblcd, but he did not
finch Instead Of continuing his jour
nev homeward, he determined to find
out the significance of this strange
light, and with eyes fixed upon it made
his way boldly over the rocky and
thorny space that interviewed; in a
short time he came upon a huge hut.
Approaching a small window from
which the glow issued, he saw great
fire burning in the very center OF the
compal TN. Mt. This fire was different
from other fires, and was lighted not
from logs or sprigs, but from great
black lustrous stones that gave out a
marvellous flame.
Around the fire three dwarfs, as
black as the stones, stood warming
themselves in perfect silence. Any
one else in Menico's position would
have fed the place at once; but, as we
have already said, he did not know
what fear was. Instead of runniE g
away, he went to the entrance, and,
finding it closed, opened it without
any hesitation.
MAY l enter, gentlemen?' he asked,
coolly. "Outside here the north wind
blows hard enough to lift the hair from
ones head Permit me to warm up a
Bit"
One of the dwa:fs made sign of ac-
! qni scence with his hand, and Menico
took his place beside the fire in Il
| squatting position, for there were no
seats. While warming himself he stole
many a glance at his queer compan.
ions. the like of whom he had never
seen before.
For their only garment the dwarfs
wore a goatskin; their bodies were
covered with heavy growth of long
hair. A small leather cap, upon which
a ligh ghtcd lamp was fastened, was or
each head. They were perfect mon
stcrs, resembling exactly the pictures
of the Evil One which Menico had
often seen exhibited.
In one corner of the apartment there
was heap of black stones from which
every now and them, those strange
looking creatures took fuel for the fire
"Honoied sirs, may | ask what it is
that you are burnine?' said Mcnico
after stretching his limbs and finding
that no one offered him any information
Before answering, the dwarfs went
through a mysterious pantomine that
almost made our hero laugh. Ther
one Of them, who seemed to be theiI
leader, looking very solemn and point
inc to the earth, erowled forth:
eli in your world the people knew
that beneath their feet there lie treas

and gold.'
