knew what they were about: They didn't
do it by accident.
Wouldn't it be handsome thing to do to
paint your house? 1t is nice house, has a
good substantial commodiOus look, and ism t
rusty at all, you know; but fresh coat of
paint would make it SO bright it's pity
not to.
Devoe is beautiful paint, but the beauty
of it is: it lasts so long, and does Sc much
more than adorn an already interesting and
attractive edifice. House out-buildings and
fences. There isn't a man or a woman in
to wn, who wouldn't see them and make
some pleasant remark.
OF course, you will paint the town prop
erty nothing would mark your adminstra-
ton more, in the eyes of the people; and,
having done the same thing at home, it is
the most natural thing in the world to do it
for them. Yours truly

for the $1,000 gold cup offered by the Ger

crossed the line with none of her competi-
tors in sight. Under full sail. with spin
maker and balloon jib belled well out, the

in the yacht contest, finished second Tues.
day night, almost twenty-five hours to the
minute behind the Atlantic The Valhalla,
ship, was the third yacht to cross the line
The Earl of Crawford, owner Of the VAL
halla, was eager to know about the per-
Torrance of the other boats. When he had
been told that the Atantic's record day was
341 knots and Hamburg's 312, Lord Craw-
ford said 81 cannot claim anything like
that, but got very near it,. Our best days
sailing was 80 knots. What killed us was
6o-hours' calm. But for that I think we
should have made better showing. We
had a delightful trip, but only moderate
wind. We saw nothing of the other yachts
since soon after the start. We took the
usual course followed by liners" Nine of
