Letter r. M. Bowman,


Dear Sir: The way to reckon the cost
of paint is TO put both costs together:
the cost of the paint and the cost of
putting it on.
1t would save this country hundreds
of millions of dollars year; it would
save you alone Gf you happen to be a
victim) several dollars year.
See how it works. 1t costs as much
to put on one paint as another, don't
it?
Yes, if you use the same number of
gallons.
Well don't l?
No, you'll use twice rs many gallons
of adulterated paint as of Devoe; and
you've got to pay twice as much for
putting it on.
Mr.. N Avery, Delhi, n. Y, has two
houses alike and in same condition.
Painted one house with Devoe: gal
Ions. Painted the other house with a
paint that was half adulteration: II
gallons. Same painter, Geo. Gilbert,
did both jobs. One cost s27; the other
$54
Better go by the name.
Yours truly,
F. w. DEVOE & co.

WHY THEY PUSH 1T.
Bowditch & Webster Recommend and
Push Mi-o-na, the Dyspepsia REM
edv

IT'S a pleasure to sell a medicine
when our customers come in after
wards and tell us how much good it has
done Them" said Bowditch & Webster,
the popular druggists to an Augusta
man, land that is why we like to sell
and recommend Mi-o-na, the dyspep-
STA remedy.
The distribution of samples that we
made created so much talk and SO large
a proportion of those who received a
sample have bought q box Of Mi-o-na
that our clerks have been busy selling
the medicine ever since.
We have so much faith in this ar
ticle that we are going to guarantee it
in the future, and will return the
money to any purchaser of Mi-o-na
whom it does not cure. That may
seem rash but our customers have said
so many good words in its favor that
we do not expect to have many pack
lagos returned.
Any one who has dyspepsia, whose
food does not digest we'll, who has to
take thought as to what he can eat,
and when, can leave so cents de-
post at our store and take home q box
of Mi-o-na and if the remedy does not
regulate his digestion and cure his dys-
pepsia, he can withdraw his money.
don't know but what we would be will
ing to pay him interest"
This shows great faith in the merit
of Mi-o-na. 1t is really a most unusual
medicine and the rapid increase in sales
since BoWditch & Webster introduced
it in Augusta shows that it does all
that 1t claims to do,-cures dyspepsia,
regulates digestion and enables those
who use 1t to eat just what they want
and when they want with no fear of
trouble.

these townships, as shown by the last
report of the State assessors aggregates
$241.815. 1t is impossible to state just
what the loss will be, but it cannot
fail to be very heavy as the fire-covered
territory was quite large. The full ex-
tent of the damage done cannot be de-
termined until the land is carefully

The railroad commissioners will
shortly send out the necessary blanks
to the steam and street railroads of the
state. These reports must cover the
entire business done by the respective
roads for the year ending June 80 1908.
The officials are given the months of
July and August in which to prepare
and file the same with the railroad
commissioners. Failing to comply with
this requirement before Sept. 80, sub
jrcta the road to a fine of $1,000. This
penalty is imposed for the purpose of
compelling the railroads to make their
reports each year before a stated time
so that opportunity will be allowed the
commissioners to examine the same
making such deductions therefrom as
they feel disposed to do preparatory to
their report to the Governor
before Dec. 81.

CLEVELAND SPEAKS.
Tells Students He Is a Stickler for
 Higher Education.

Chicago, October 15.-Former President Grover Cleveland was received with lusty cheers by the students of Armour insti- tute today He made a speech which brought forth more applause. One state ment he made was especially happy con- cerning his audience, which is engaged in acquiring what he terms an industrial education" He said:
 T am a great stickler for higher educa- tion, but I want to tell you that the opportunities today are greater than ever before for boys to get practical educa- tion-an industrial education-and I would rather my own boy grew up able to build than to receive the highest honor the peo- pie could bestow upon him. hate to hear persons talk in a pessimstic strain to the effect that the day of opportunity in this country has gone by, and that the chances for a young man to rise by his own eff forts have passed away. It is not true. There is room at the top and there always will be-"
 Before visiting the Armour school MT. Cleveland, accompanied by James H. Eckels called upon Mrs. Walter Q. Gresham, widow of Secretary of State Gresham of the Cleveland cabinet.
 In the afternoon Mir. Cleveland was en- tertained with luncheon at the Chicago club. Leaving the Chicago club, he was escorted to the Art Institute. where a public reception was rendered him. MT. Cleveland left for his home at Princeton at o'clock tonight.

FURNACE REPORT
 IS NOT ENCOURAGING

better than would be supposed from the .discouraging reports in circulation.
 The Chicago market is practically the only pig iron market showing much life. The demand there has been considerably better the past week, the lower price now ruling having proved more in line with the views of buyers. Charcoal pig iron was reduced sl.50 per ton, bringing 1t more closely to coke iron.
 While reports of better business are coming In from some branches of the finished iron and steel trades, these are offset by reports of diminished trade in other branches. Inquiries are again be- ginning to be received from some of the large railroad companies, who had not vet placed their rail orders for next year. the reports from steel car companies are more encouraging to the outlook for business. merchant pig mills are actively employed and the wire trade continues in exceptionally favorable condition. On the other hand a large percentage of the sheet mill capacity of the country is idle and the tin plate factories are feeling a slaekness of trade in their line to such an extent that important mills are being laid off to await an improvement

New York, October 15.-The monthly blast furnace statistics, which report con dftions prevailing October 1. says the Iron Age, deal with affairs as existing before the measures to restrict pig iron produe- tion were put into effect. They must therefore, not be taken as indicating the nresent state of the pig iron industry The figures show that the production or coke and anthracite pig iron In Septem- her was 1,556,7 TIT gross tons, as compared with 1. .57l, ,126 tons in August. The produc- tion was practically at the same rate dnring both months. In September the coke and anthracite furnaces blown out numbered tweventy- compared with seven blown in, showing a net reduction of twenty. This was insufficient to reduce inc weekly capacity of active coke and anthracite furnaces from 36O 197 tons Sep tember l to 354,474 tons on October l.
 Since the beginning of the current month nine blast furnaces have been blown out in the Mahoning and She mango valleys. as well as quite a number of stacks in other parts of the country, and still more furnaces are being pre- pared for blowing out. The movement to restrict production is, therefore, fairly under way.
 The consumption is keeping up much
