Letter to Mr.. Jos. Fielder,
Mineral Point, Wis.

Dear Sir; As your business is to
set people into aud out of trouble,
suppose you consider their paint; it
makes EN- almost as much trouble
AS money, except of course matri-
mony,
They buy poor paint y good deal;
they don't mean TO; they don't know
ANY better; they buy without thinking.
Bad paint isn't good, 1t looks good
enough for year; then begins to get
rusty; but changes so slowly, one
don't notice IL,
Looking isn't all The business of
paint is to keep u house dry inside,
the wood and iron OF It; keep 1t from
rotting aud rusting, Takes good
paint to do IL,
Good and bad paint are sold at one
prieo or about that, Ono can't so by
the price at all; rs with lawyers, tho
price has nothing to do with goodness
or badness; and costs arc worso yet;
the painter and sheriff come IN for
their share,
But the probability is that u man,
who paints Devoe, will come.out ON
top, +, w. Devoo Il Co,
New York and Chicago
j, \, Mcserolo sells our paint.

Tailoring.

We are prepared to supply your
demands from several of the very best
wooden houses in tbs United States at
the lowest living prices.

walk of life, as rule, have their cloth

our country, from Washington to
Roosevelt, were men of good taste and
Judgment and believed in made-to-

Why? Because they found such
clothing the most satisfactory and
cheapest in the end.

have had three tailor presidents;
Fillmore was for time tailor's
apprentice; the next was Taylor by
name, and Johnson was practical
tailor and cutter for many years.
