called to order at o'clock, after which
the local lodge with the assistance of
visiting brothers conferred the second

After a brief intermission the Barton
Landing lodge took the floor aud con-
ferred the rank of Knight upon the
same candidate. This work was in the
long form, impressively illustrated by
lantern slides depicting its lessons, and
was most valuable instructor as to the
possibilities of the work. After another
brief intermission the assembly gathered
around the banquet table, and after
enjoying the good things prepared
listened to speeches. Grand Chancellor

the general state of the order in Yer

Letter to FOss & Co,

Dear Sir; Two years ago the estate
of the late Congressman Scott, of Erie.
Pa, painted n Rolling Mill houses one
coat Deyoe at a saving of II per cent for
paint (lead.and oil was after the joh)
That's how the tale reads. We infer
what really happened.
The buyer, as usual, went ny the cost
Of paint; got bids. Lead audoil bid
low and guessed the quantity low; the
saving was only II per cent
Nobody seems to have thought of
this; the painting costs two or three
times as much as the paint. How much
did We save on the painting? Don't
know.
The tale ends with this: We often
refer inquirers to those houses, for wear
OF Deyoe.
That's good-enough story; but
nobody knows what it is. Our only
difficulty is want of paintintelligence.
Yours truly

Aud that's where they were correct
We never could understand why
