Now, il you know anything at all
about paint you know these are the best
and only materials that go to make first
quality paints. That's all you need
to know. With that settled there can
be no question about results il the con-
ditions ara right, and that, OF course, ID
a necessary precaution with any paint.
You may be advised to use lead and
oil and thus know for yourself just what
you. are getting, but the old trouble OF
"chalking" will follow.
The Zinc prevents that, hut you can't
combine all the materials by hand as
perfectly as same is done by machinery,
and you can't select these materials
yourself and be sure OF absolute purity.
White Lead is adulterated, SO is Zinc.
30 is Linseed Oil and everything else.
These are all tested by the Stearns
Pain. Company and chemical analysis
shows them to be pure. that makes you
safe.
That's their object-to make YOU safe.
That principle they believe pays better
than deception-anyhow, they like that
way best and we think you do.

ACREDIT TO LAMAR
The Beautiful Yards Of the
Foster Lumber Company are
the Pride Of All Citizens
The Most Complete Stock in
the Valley is Carried by this
Enterprising Firm
Fair Visitors viii Find the Fos-
ter Yards an Attraction
Worth Inspecting

Lamar has we'll earned reputation
for having the best Of everything. The
business houses are all modern and
metropolitan in appearance, and the
stocks carried are as good as can be
found in the big cities. When Lamar
people undertake a public entertain
mept or enterprise OF any kind they al
ways 90 the limit and never get cold
feet.
When the Foster Lumber. company
hrst entered the field here it was quick
TO appreciate these conditions, and was
also fortunate In having local mana
ger enterprising enough to put the COM
pany right to tho front. Mr.. Gillen
at once decided after his arrival here,
that Lamar should have the finest lum-
Der yard In the Arkansas valley, and a
visit TO the Foster yards will convince
good.
Tho big yard contains hundreds OF
thousands OF feet OF lumber, covering
anything that might be called for for
any purpose, and yet all is so neatly
and methodically arranged that sim
gle stick OF any kind Of lumber can be
secured in an instant without disturb
ing anything else, and the yard accom-
modAtions are such that twenty wagons
can load simultaneously.
In the buildings which contain the
doors, sash, paints, and finishing the
same orderly methods are everywhere
apparent. There is no litter or waste
anywhere, and both yard and buildings
are IS clean as parlor.
Our claim OF having the most COM
plete and best appointed lumber yard
In the valley is borne out by the facts,
a. anyone can SEQ who will inspect our
yard and compare it with Others" said
Manager Gillen yesterday. 1--WE find
It necessary to carry this big stock
because we arc wholesalers as well as
retailers, and always keep in shape to
fill any kind OF an order. The man who
wants a dollars worth receives as
prompt and careful attention as the big
company that places a $4,000 order.
We give everyone the best in the shop.
We arc gratified at the wonderful in
crease in our business during the past
twelve months. and find that it pays to
keep up the yard on this high grade
plan.
The Foster Lumber company has
been devoting special attention this
year to bee supplies, and the stock Of
these goods a revelation. Apiarists no
longer find 1t necessary to send away
for their supplies.
Visitors who attend the fair next
week are cordially invited to visit the
Foster Lumber company's yard and
give it a thorough inspection. They
will find it an attraction we'll worth see-
ing. ]. G. Gillen, the manager, who
will be on hand every day to show the
visitors around personally, is an affable
and courteous gentleman, who under
stands his business thoroughly, as the
success his company has met with in
Lamar amply demonstrates. He will
be glad to meet all the visitors and help
make them feel at home.

THE srEARms PAINT.

II we tell you the Stearns Brand OF
Paint is the best paint made, others say
the same for their paint. II we say it is
strictly pure. others say theirs is too.
II we say it will cover 800 square feet,
two'coats to the gallon. others will say
as much for theirs. And there you are.
Some people do not hesitate to repre-
sent their brands to be Of the highest
excellence, no matter what they are in
fact. And 30 when in want of paint you
are flooded with a mass OF literature on
the subject that confuses rather than
enlighteas you.
You at last make selection, or rather
guess at it--perhaps are talked into de-
Gliding the question to get rid of it, not
because you are satisfied in your own
mind, but because life is too short to
spend 30 much of it trying to find out
who is telling the truth.
There is paint made that carries it's
own credentials, that submits the proof
OF its purity and quality SO convincingly
that you are at once relieved OF confus-
ION and uncertainty and as a fact just
exactly what you are getting for your
money, and that it's use will result in
the highest possible satisfaction.
That's the way the
STEARNS BRAND OF PAINT
presents itself. 1t comes with chemical
analysis of its composition made by en-
lnent disinterested scientific men from
cans purchased by themselves in open
market.
1t is shown to be combination Of
Zinc White, White Lead and Linseed
Oil. with just sufficient pure turpentine
japan drier for proper working, and the
necessary tinting color and nothing else
whatsoever.

Most Of the women afflicted with pelvic
diseases have no idea that their trouble
is due to catarrh- The ma jority Of the
people think that catarrh is a disease con-
fined to the head alone
This is not true. Catarrh is liable to
attack any organ of the body; throat.
bronchial tubes. lungs, stomach, kidneys,
and especially the pelvic organs.
Many a woman has made this discovery
after long siege Of useless treatment.
She has made the discovery that her dis
ease is catarrh and that Peruna can be re-
lied upon 10 cure ca tarrh wherever located

1t would be well nigh impossible to emu
merate all the consequences to a woman s
life which naturally result from a neg
lected case of pelvic catarrh. Whatever
they are there can be no doubt that in
most cases it is entirely unnecessary for
them to continue. An intelligent course of
treatment with Peruna will, in most cases,
effect an entire cure.

what used to be called female diseases
BY the medical profession is now called
pelvic catarrh It has been found by ex-
perience that catarrhal diseases of the pei
vic organs are the cause Of most cases Of
female disease
DR.. Hartman vas among the first ce
Americas great physicians to make this
discovery. For forty years he has beea
treating diseases peculiar TO women, and
long ago he reached the conclusion that a
woman entirely free from catarrhal aff1c-
ton Of these organs would not be subject
to female diseases. He therefore began
using Peruna for these cases and found it
so admirably adapted to their permanent
most famous remedy for female diseases
