Letter to Anthony Adams,
Stafford Springs, Conn.

Dear Sir: Devoe is worth 81 or
$5 gallon, put-on; how much is an
other paint worth?
Depends ON how many gallons
you've got to put.on, to be equal to
one of Devoe.
Mr. Hall, Sheffield, Pa, painted
two houses one coat, five years ago,
lead and oil, took 40 gallons.
Last summer bought 40 gallons De-
voc for same houses; had 10 gallons
left.
Mr. N Avery, Delhi, N Y, owns
two houses exactly alike; painted one
with Devoe; took 6 gallons. The
other with some other; took II gal
Ions.
What'd you give for those off
paints? Bear in mind, you've got to
pay for the painting.
Yours. truly
. FW DEvoE & Col
H. Chapman & 90. sell our paint.

MONSOON.

Charles Haynes of Canton has taken
a position as boss finisher in the Cush-
man mill.
J. T. McNaught has sold his place
on Pearl street to Albert Skies, and
has resigned his position in the Cush-
man mill. He will move his family
to Norwich. ct.
The Monsons will play next Satur
day with the Worcester Gyms, fast
organization. Turkey and Peloquin
will be the battery for the home
team, and Patterson or Pelky and
Fleming for the visitors.
The w. N. Flynt granite company
has taken the contract for building
the stone-work for the new bridge at
North Monson. The selectmen have
secured a right of way across land
owned by G. G. Flynt and DR.. Ingra-
ham, and will build a temporary
bridge while the new one is being
placed. This will save those who
travel over the lower road to Palmer
the long drive around by the quarry.
The preliminary count of the census
returns shows a substantial increase
in population in Monson in the past
five years. The total population il
shown as 4343, which is an increase
of 941 over the figures of five years
ago. The increase in 10 years is over
500. This incresae will entitle the
town to another liquor license, and by
an agreement with the telephone com.
pany, will entitle the town to tele-
phone at the almshouse.
A reunion of the Harris family was
held Thursday at the home of Charles
Hancock in the west part of the town.
There was an attendance of about so,
and the program consisted of dinner
and speaking by many of the visitors.
The guests from out of town were
Leonard and Rufus Harris of Norwich,
Ct., Mark Harris and Mr.. and Mrs.
William Harris of Springfield, Mr..
and Mrs. George Hall and son of New

would become of them if fell, and
I lost my nerve. But I'll fool them
yet.
Hill attempted his usual wire walk
ing feat yesterday morning, but only
got ten feet out on the wire when he
began to cry with the fear that had
come upon him. He fairly crawled
back to the big tower and was sent
home again.

The following relative to VIM. Hill,
who did the high wire act at the
Stafford fair is of INTEREST,"
His nerve shaken by an overpower-
ing fear that clutched at him and al
most dragged him from the slender
wire on which he performed, almost
200 feet above the crowds, Will Hill
refused to go on yesterday, and last
night said Luna park must get along
without him until he recovered his
nerves of steel. So, instead of bal
ancing in the limelight at dizzy
height, Hill sat in his cottage in Nep-
tune avenue and crooned over his
baby and said he would "fool them
all yet; fool them all. -
His physician, DR.. E. W. Lee, who
called others into consultation, isn't
quite so sure the tight-rope walker
is right about ever fooling them all
again. In fact, the physicians say
they have run against not unusual
psychical problem in a man who new
er before knew fear, being so over.
powered with it that he could not
walk the floor, let alone the tight
rope, without his legs trembling.
The heat, the nervous tension and
many anxious hours at the bedside of
his sick child have combined to break
down one of the most marvellous of
aerial performers. Something like
that happens to the bravest of men
in the dark, who merely imagine
something has brushed by. Or it hits
great financiers, whose nerves sudden
ly relax and they find themselves
shaking on the verge of a big deal,
when all their nerves and wits must
be about them and at quick command.
Then they abandon all and fly to Eu-
rope or elsewhere for rest.
The popularity of Hills mental
attitude is that he does not fear for
himself, but is possessed of an awful
dread of what would become of his
wife and only babe if something hap
pened to him. This mood first came
on him on Saturday night, when the
great crowd below saw the athlete
totter and almost fall to certain death
from the wire SO high above the tow
ers it was almost invisible. The per-
formance was cut short, and Hill, all
shaking, was taken home in a car
riage.
For the first time in all my per-
formances," said the balancer, in ex-
planning it, 'I saw the earth below,
where before that was unconscious
of everything except the wire. But
| not only saw the earth plainly and
the people, but in the crowd saw
my wife, with our sick baby in her
arms. ] knew it was a mental in
stead of optical impression, as my
wife never attends my performances
she can't bear to see me up there.
Bat the impression grew, until finally
! could see my wife and baby only,
the crowd having faded away. They
were directly beneath me and both
looking up, though knew at the
same time my baby was at home sick
