TiOneStd, Pa.

Dear Sir: 1t is your business to to know
what materials to put into houseas well
as to plan it. Ofcourse, You know the
effect of zinc and lead in paint -toughens
it. Do you also know the greater effect
of zinc ground in?
For painter can't grind, he can only
mix. Devoe lead and zinc is thoroughly
ground in oil. The result is an intimate
mixture.
Your painter can only mix; he can't
grind; there's no need Of grinding by
hand. He should buy lead and zinc
ground together in oil.
Devoe lead and zinc is that; the pro-
portions are right besides. 1t outlasts
lead and oil two to one, and costs no
more-even less for hand-work cant
compete with machne-work.
Yours truly,

COUGARS FIGHT LIKE CATS.
Oregon Woods Full of the ugly
Brutes, and They Make Night HID
eous with Their Warfare.

A party of timber-land dealers lately
in from the mountains some twenty
miles out from Gate City, Ore, report
ed that cougars are very numerous IN
that section. The woods are literally
full Of them, and they are frequently
seen during the day and also the blood
stained snow in many places shows
where they have killed deed. But the
worst feature Of. the brutes is their
habit, common to the feline races, OF
caterwauling at night. A pair OF these
animals growing and fighting In the
back yard of ones camp all night is no
joke.
The party was composed OF elght
men, all accustomed to life in the
woods, but, they say, they were never
so badly frightened before in all their
woodland experience as they were dur
ing their last trip. Their hair stood
erect and the blood CONCEALED as the
murderous cougars at and fit and
scratched and bit and struggled in the
mud, till all the ground for miles
around was covered with their blood"
Deer are becoming plentiful in the
mountains again, says the Portland
Oregonian, and the cougar Is living
high and feeling good.

Feeding Habits Of Birds
Continued }

Look at thelittle brown creeper. Up
and mp the tree trunk he winds his spi'
raj way, nor even stops to move an men
from his path. Intent and pre-occupied,
he gazes on the narrow strip OF bark be
fore him. Though myriads OF insects
swarm about his head. he stops not to
catch them Watch him closely and
you will see him take an egg out Of II
crevice in the bark here, and pick up a
struggling insect yonder His brown
streaked coat matches the bark so well
that were II not for that squeaky note
of his, fewer people still would become
aware Of his presence.
The woodpeckers also creep the trees
and branches. They. however go more
at random, and stop occasionally TO
lombard the door of some Rrub's for.
tress aud capture the occupant dead
or alive. Moreover, the woodpecher
uses his tail M brace, while the brown
creeper simply brings his tail behind
him"
The nut hatch il another tree creeper,
or rather "coaster' He doesn't care
which way he travels backward for
ward, head up or head down, with bis
tail always sticking out straight behind
all positions are perfectly convenient
TO him At times he stops to hatch u
beechnut He wedges the nut into u
crevice in the bark and then matches
it with his bill until he secures the ker.
mel Sometimes he will mount the roof
Of dwelling and with bold "yaak,
yank 20 crasting up and down; then Ia
cap the climax Of his performances he
will fly out and, phoebe.like, catch an
insect on the wing.
Sit out on your lawn aud watch the
phoebe and the pewee. If there IL an
orchard IN sight perhaps you may see a
kinghird also These are true hycatch-
ers. See them as they dart out, dive and
dodge, and snap up the insects that play
in the sunlight
So violently do they clash their man
diJles together that you can hear the
snap ~ they close Then suddenly your
kingbird will give biz rafting warcry
and sally forth after that cawing crow
that flies with heavy wing toward III,

IN GERMANY AND AMERICA.
Conditions Which Control Working
men Are Widely Different in the
Two Countries.

In Germany it may be said that the
tendency is to make better work
men; in America and England the
tendency is to make better men. The
Anglo-Saxon policy is to cast the
bantling on the rock and let him
work out his own salvation through
temptation. In Germany the policy
is quite the reverse; the workman
is protected from disciplining tempt
alton and ruled in thousand ways
by the government instead of being
allowed to rule himself. American
discipline is from within, German
from without.
The German workman is without
hope ever in religion, for it is rare
that German workman is ever seen
in church after confirmation; there
is little or no chance for him to rise;
he has before him no possible career
in politics, nor any hope of becom-
ing a Carnegie or a Huntington. Con-
sequently he is without ambition to
do his work faster or by better meth
DDS; he is content to do what his ia
Their did, without thinking, though
the all-seeing government is making
herculean efforts through its scores
of technical and industrial schools
the best of the world-to stir him
from his stolid and precedent-bound
lethargy.
The German workman is slow, says
the Outlook, therefore his wages are
small. 1t is less expensive in Ger
many to hire muscle than it is to in
stall expensive machinery. There
fore in all sorts of German manufac-
turing establishments one sees
clouds of workmen bending their
backs to burdens which in America
are borne swiftly, noiselesslsy and
more cheaply by electricity or steam.
