CAh 2 OAOfC, IN D.
Dear Sir: You'd strike it rich if you
could find a way to shave your customers
IN less time, for less cost, and make the
shave last twice or three times as long.
You wouldn't shave the same person so
many times, or get so much of his mon
ey; but the whole town would be talking
about you, and everybody would come to
you for a shave.
Devoe lead. aud-zinc is exactly that in
pants. 1t takes fewer gallons, and it
wears longer. Costs less for the job, and
you don't have to do it again for years
and years-six years at least.
Fewer gallons; wears longer" Takes
lever gallons to paint a house with De-
voc lead-and-zinc than with mixed paints;
and it wears longer than mixed paints or
~lead-and-oil. Yours truly,

Chased Sisters Assailant.

Awakened by smothered screams
from the oOm of his ~17-year-old sister
late at night, Charles Salem, of Tren-
ton, hurried to her side. Just as he
entered her room a man rushed past
him and made his escape from the
house. Salem found that an attempt
had been made to assault his sister,
who makes her home with him, and,
without stopping to dress, he ran out
in his night clothes in pursuit of the
rascal. He gave hot chase, but the
fellow escaped. Returning to his home
out Of breath, Salem ran across Ed
ward SchOenfield near the house and
caused his arrest on suspicion. SchOen-
field confessed hat he had been in the
company of William Carrigan, who
had told him where they could call
upon two pretty girls. Arriving at
the Salem house, he said, Carrigan
got boldly in, but S%choenfield said he
refused to go. On a clew furnished
by Schoenfield, Carrigan was arrested

Another Town Off Map.

.Allaire, known as the birthplace of
the wife of John Roach, the shipbuild-
sr, and as 1.-The deserted village" of
this State, is to be wiped off the postal
map because the Government can find
40 one who wants to be postmaster.
The history of Allaire was made eighty
gears ago when it was the largest iron
smelling town in New Jersey. In the
early 20s James Allaire, of New York
City, founded the town, and it rapidly
grew into a prominent business centre
IF Central New Jersey. Iron was cart
ed there in large quantities, smelted
and shipped by boat from Manasquan.
in the 30s the town had the largest
brick building then i'll the State. The
iron trade continued to thrive until
about 1910, when an improvement in
machinery made the process there out
IF date, and the town then began to
diminish as a commercial centre, and
as the industry became crippled the in
habitants moved away. The business
at the p~OstOffice has been decreasing
for several years. Postmaster Height,
now in charge, has become dissatisfied
with the earnings of the office, the sal
ary for the last year being but SOS. a
percentage On the stamps sold, and he
has given up the office. Mail for the
place will now be received at Allen
wood, two miles away.

When James Gordon Bennett the
elder was editor Of the Herald, Rob.
ert Bonner, publisher of the New York
Ledger, was struggling to build up its
circulation, and decided to try a little
advertising. He wrote an announce
ment consisting of eight words: Read
Mrs. Southworth's New Story in the
LEDGER" and sent it to tie Herald
marked for "one line" Mr.. Bonner's
handwriting was so bad that the
words were read in the Herald office
as "one page" Accordingly the line
was set up and repeated SO as to &C.
cupy one entire page. Mr.. Bonner
was thunderstTL ck the next morning.
He had not to his name money enough
in the bank to pay the bill. He rushed
eXc1tedly over to the Herald Office,
but was too late to do any good.
In a short time the results OF tra
page announcement began to be felt.
Orders for the Ledger poured in until
the entire edition was exhausted and
another Il was printed. The sue
cess of the Ledger was then estab-
Iished. Ever after that time Mr.. Bon
ner was al ardent believer in adver-
Using and a liberal purchaser of space

Fed by Machinery.

An American farmer owns a small
tract of land which he has stocked
with a few dozen chickens. AS he is
compelled to be away from his home
during the day he studied out a
scheme for caring for his chickens
during his absence. In each pen he
has erected troughs to hold food for
the hens, and these troughs are con
nected by wire with his house. With
in the house he has connected the
wire with an alarm clock. When he
leaves home in the morning he sets
the alarm clock at the hour for feed
ing the chickens, and by an ingenious
arrangement when the time arrives
the alarm goes off, the connecting
wire releases the troughs, and the
chickens make a rush for their food,
which is spread before them as If
their owner did the work in person.
