MIDDLEBURGH, PA.
Dear Sir You know all about shoes.
How many customers have you who
know anything about 'em?
You have bought and sold shoes fol
years, and have learned what you know
by your customers like one sort, and
not liking another. They find out
by wearing 'em.
So with paint; but we go deeper.
We are las years old in the business;
and we make, not buy-we make a
good deal of paint.
We paint good share Of the railroad
and steamer property in the United
States, and may as well paint the pri
vate property. Yours as well as any
body elses. Devoe lead and zinc is
youi paint. Costs half as much as lead
and oil, because it wears twice as long.
Yours truely,
+. w. DEvOE & Co.

WILL VISIT PRESIDENT

Don Felipe Buencamino, a former
member of Agunaldo's cabinet, and
now prominently identified with the
Federal party in Manila, sitting as a
member of the Philippine civil Service
Commission, is passenger on board
the transport Buford.
Don Buencamino states that his pri-
mary object in coming to the states is
to visit his two sons who are i'm Cali
fcrnia university, and also to call upon
Mrs. Mckinley and the widow of Cen
eral Lawton. 1t is an open secret how
ever that he will meet the President
and with him discuss the situation in
the Philippines with regard to the pres
ent and future American administra-
ton. He is said to be a warm friend
OF the present administration and
states that the policy of Generals Chat
fee and Smith is the only one calcu-
lated to control the Filipinos.
Senior Buencamino will be a warm
advocate of General Smith before Sec
rotary Root and the president He is
accompanied to Washington by w l..
Pepperman, a member of the Civil Ser
vice Board, Lieutenant McNally of the
Third Cavalry, acts as interpreter for
the don, rendering the service as a
personal friend Senior Buencamino
obN''N' iAi5 ll7A Jul SllSllNlS hlil0tlls
He presents a distinguished appear
ance with somewhat military air. He
is man of apparently fifty years of
age with a grey moustache and a kind
ly affable manner The Manila papers
state that he visits Washington at the
invitation Of President Roosevelt and
Secretary Root, and he was given
quite an ovation upon his departure.
Senior Buencamino will avail himself
of the good offices of his English
speaking friends during the short stay
o. the transport in Honolulu to inquire
into the protected rights of the Hawaii
ans under the American administra-
ton, including their franchise and
their situation under the homestead
laws. The conditions of the latter as
regards the general American citizen
he is particularly interested in.
