Letter to M L Carroll
Yorkville S G,

Dear Sir: The cheap paint to buy is
the one that covers more than you
think: the cheap one to wear is the
one that Is young when old.
Mrs Moore, Of Kelsey, N Y, bought
16 gallons Devoe to paint her house
two coats; her painters said 1t would
take that. Had 6 gallons left.
Mr. James Ackley's house, in Cairo
(Catskill Mountains). N Y. was paint
ed Devoe; 1t wore IA years; and the
paint was in good condition then. He
was going to paint, the last we knew,
though. That's the way to preserve
house; repaint when there's no occa-
sion. Yours truly -
II FW DEvoE & Co:
P. S.-J. J. Keller & Co. sell our
paint. .. =.

cal difference to be found between the

treasurer of the Unity Mills, at La
Grange, also a member of the Geor-
gia Industrial Association, said: I'VE
have no objections to the public in
Massachusetts making any laws they
may see At. If they want to walk on
their hands or their heads, that is
their business. We do not object to
or offer any criticism of what they do
in any other state. We are in nice
shape and we want to continue so.
II they have made mistakes up in
the North, we are late getting
into the game. we ought to i'm
prove our conditions by proflting by
the mistakes the other fellows have
made. Massachusetts is something
like the fox that had his tail cut off
and then wanted all the foxes to thave
their tails cut off because he thought
it was the style. I'm sorry for the
man who has his tail cut off, but l
don't want to join him. A great many
of the manufacturers of Massachusetts
are building mills in Georgia and that
is where they are making their divi-
dends. What we hope to do in our
country is to profit by the errors that
have been made before
This question will be thoroughly dis
cussed at the coming meeting of the
association by Messrs. Davenport,
Gordon and others.

boxes carried in the guards vans oP
certain trains from Euston Station
were tempered with. The detectives
watched closely, but had no clew.
when the train reached its JOURNEYS
end the cords and locks of the pack
age were all right, but some of the
contents were missing. At last sus-
picion fell upon the guard, and il was
put to the test. A smart detective
contrived a plan, and duly secreted
himself in the van. The guard of the
train was crafty fellow. In addi-
ton to the flag and lantern which =
guard is supposed TO carry he had
a number of skeleton keys, with which
he adroitly opened bags and packages
as the train few northward. On this
particular night he was tempted 10
look into a large wooden package
which wore the appearance Of contain
ing good things. By the aid of a
screWdriver and a hammer he raised
the lid of the crate. and forced it half
open. What was his amazement when
he found it contained the detective,
who sprang out and arrested him on
the spot!
a number OF petty robberies were
traced to a factory worker, whose
mode of entrance into the houses of her
neighbors was by the cellar CRATES, so
frequently left unfastened by the cot
tagers. As rule. articles of clothing
were carried away, these being discov-
cred i'll "arious pawnshops, though
money had been taken in individual
cases. The most amusing part Of these
depreda lions was the manner in which
the culprit was trapped. In attempt
ing 10 slide down a chute which gave
entrance to the coal cellar, she stuck
last, and was obligingly helped out by
guardian of the peace, who had wit
messed her attempts first to pull up the
CRATE and then to squeeze through tho
aperture.
A story IS told of a young man, the
representative of a large firm, who car
ried large sum OF money with him,
spending the night at a hotel at Pres
burg, Vienna. AS usual he remained
some time smoking in bed. Suddenly
the burning cigar fell on to the floor.
He bent over to eXtinguisn ii when he
saw hand projected from under the
bed to put the cigar out. He lay awhile
and then. saying aloud: How cold r.
isl I shall get my coat" he jumped out
ot bed. few to the door and raised an
alarm. The would-be robber was
caught. He confessed he knew the &C
cupant of the room had money. which
he hoped to get while he slept. He
had been fireman formerly, and coul2
not resist the impulse to extinguish the
burning cigar. This habit proved his
Nemesis.
