Letter to Mr.. c c. Neil, Marshalltown,

Iowa.
Dear Sir: You know a good paint
when you see it. Devoe Ready Paint
Is the paint that costs half as much
as lead and oil because 1t wears twice
as long.
But it looks no better, when first
put on.
You must wait little to see the diff
ference.
The first summer takes off the gloss
of lead and oil; the second summer 1t
chalks: the third, lit wants repainting.
1t probably spots in a month or six
weeks: the gloss goes off in spots or in
sections.
Devoe Ready Paint even holds its
gloss longer than lead and oil wears
The loss of gloss marks the beginning
of wear, but it keeps out water ten
wears, under favorable conditions.
Painters think three years is enough.
1t is for lead and oil.
Yours truly,
f. w. DEVOE & co.

Futile Hvsteria.
sr-ocean.

From the Chicago Inter-Ooean.
The Mayor has closed all the the
atres upon information officially re-
ceived by him two months ago. II
all the theatres are. unsafe now they
were just as unsafe then. Why did not
the Mayor act then?
The Mayor offers the trihing excuse
that he Thought" the Council meant
to stay the enforcement of the law
Whatever the Council did 1t did not
repeal the law. II was the Mayors
sworn duty to enforce the law. Why
did he not enforce Il, then?
While the Mayor and the majority OF
the Council were thus trining with the
laws and the lives of the people
the Mayors Building Commissioner
permitted a new theatre to be opened
which violated the law almost as gross
ly as the worst of those now closed.
AS a result nearly 600 human beings
have been done to death and the city
is filed with mourning. Why did not
the Mayor enforce the law that would
have prevented this horrible catas-
trophe?
In the light OF the unquestionable
facts. the Mayors present action--de-
stroying IN an hour a great industry
and taking away the livelihood OF Is,
600 people-can be regarded as nothing
but an hysterical and reckless effort tc
cover up la a minute the incompetence
and lnefficiency OF years.

1T Is a tribute to the way history is
taught nowadays in the public schools,
said DR.. Arthur Cossart, of New York
that the little folks are made to enter
into the sympathies OF the heroes OF
history; it's quite different from the
old fashioned way of making history a
matter of date charts and battles.
AT the time when the New York
Times was conducting the history con-
test my little daughter, who is 10. came
home from school one day and pro-
pounded the following question:
" Papa, who do you feel the sorriesi
for of any one in historyY
Mercy on usi' 1 said. I don't know
as I feel specially sorry for any one
You see, I-well-daughter, 1 have
troubles Of my own
Il explained to her that questions like
that, sprung so suddenly, were like
thunder bolts out Of a clear sky, and
then asked why she wanted to know.
" Because she replied, i know who
I feel the sorriest for of anybody-and
that's old Peter Stuyvesant, because
you see, he wanted to fight and he
couldn't on account Of his wooden leg.
And the way the 10-year-old forehead
went into wrinkles of sympathy fol
Peter Stuyvesant would have puzzled
any peace congress and delighted oul
Chief Executive, who believes n

EDITORIAL OPINION
A Return to Sanity.


From the st. Louis Post Dispatch.
1t is given out that the United States
Steel Corporation, under the control OF
John D. Rockefeller, win confne itself
10 making steel to sell at a profit. the
profit TO go to the owners Of the prop
critics. It win not be run for the
benefit Of the promoters and officers at
the expense of investors and the gem
eral public.
Whatever else may be said OF Mr..
Rockefeller, nobody has ever accused
him OF being a reckless speculator. In
all his enterprises he has pursued
policies designed to make money and
he has not been identified with any Of
the wildcat schemes which have
brought high finance" into discredit
during the past few months
II Is "A seasonable reform much de-
sired by All legitimate business inter-
ests. Panics restricted TO wall Street
do not affect the country generally, but
when conspicuous hnanciers connect
themselves with questionable trans
actions confidence is impaired and no
one can say when a Wall Street panic
may extend to general business.
Il may be hoped that the change in
the United States Steel Company
makes the beginning Of radical re-
form in financial organization. A re-
turn 10 sanity is imperatively de-
manded.

FOR COORDINATION OF EFFORT.

Whether or not the spirituality OF
church members is on the decrease, it
is certain that there is more business
sense and sound judgment and less IA
naticism displayed than ever before.
in the first place we no longer fight
over the slight peculiarities Of our
creeds, and there is a growing spirit
OF federation.
Then it may be noticed that there
IS a reaction from that controversial
spirit which IN the last two or three
centuries has multiplied creeds. The
cry now is for church unity although
20 far it has resulted in no.hing but
better understandings between the
members Of differing sects. The late
Pope made advances TO the English
Church Tor ahiliation between the two
churches, and while his overtures were
not accepted yet they received respect
fui consideration.
For several years there has been a
demand. especially on the part Of the
laity for a union or coordination OF
the several evangelical churches. and
as the matter is more widely discussed
the project seems to grow in feasibil-
ity. The Presbyterians have a move
ment on foot TO reunite the churches
North and South and at the same tim,
TO take IN the several branch denomin
ations. as well as the German Reform
ed and the Lutherans. The Methods

A Takers asisadventure.

The following story sounds as If 1t
could not possibly be true, yet true it is;
A man who prides himself on having n
knowledge that might literally be call
ed encyclopedia was in the company
of a set of men who work so hard as a
rule that they do not take life very
seriously in their hours of leisure. He
began to address them on literature,
and you viii presently be able 10 i'm
agine the sort Of stuff ne talked. 1t
was not long before he touched on
George Meredith and expressed opin-
ions which might have caused an out
burst. Instead Of this, some one sug-
gested deferentially that he talked too
generally; that he would be better COM
pretended if he illustrated his views
by reference to any one Of the nov
els He thought the suggestion a wise
one and left the choice OF the book to
his audience. The original proposer of
this eminently reasonable plan imme-
diately suggested "Tess Of the Dur
bervilles," and the other went ahead,
obligingly accepting the choice. What
he said does not need to be recorded.
but it is rather notable that to this day
he does not know the trick that was
being played on him because he is be-
ing preserved for some future occasion.
