Letter to S. 7. Ross.
Accomac, Va.

Dear Sir:-As your business Is toget
people into and out of trouble, sup
pose you consider theirpaint lit makes
'em almost as much trouble asmoney,
except of course matrimony.
They buy poor paint a good deal
thew don't mean to; they don't know
any better; they buy without think
ing. Bad paint isn't good. 1t looks
good-enough for year; then begins
to get rusty; but changes SO slowly
one don't notice it.
Looking isn't all. The business Of
paint is to keep a house dry inside
the wood and iron of it; keep it from
rotting and rusting. Takes good paint
| to do it.
Good and bad paint are sold at ONT
price or about that. One can't go by
the price at all; as with lawyers, th'
price has nothing to do with goodness
or badness; and costs are worse yet
the painter and sheriff come-in 10
their share.
But the probability is that man
who paints Devoe, will come-out o.
top.
Yours truly,
1s F. w. Devoe & Co.

Co.Operative Telephone Service.

Now that the main lines OF the
Diamond State Telephone Com
pany have been completed in Ac-
comack county, the company presents
a cooperative plan to farmers ana
business men in the rural districts.
This plan gives telephone service at
40 low a cost that it brings this mod
ern necessity within reach of every
farmer irrespective of wealth or po-
sition.
The telephone keeps the farmer
posted on the latest weather forecasts
furnished by the Government. An
accurate forecast of the weather is es-
sential, for it often means a safety OF
his crops, when to any other business
the weather is of but little import
ance. The markets everywhere are
reachable from his home and good
market at the right time determines
the amount of profit. Five trips by
wagon may mean five disappoint'
ments and five days lost-the tele'
phone does the job in five minutes. 1t
meets all emergencies, makes travel
ing unnecessary, and saves tired
horses many long drives.
The telephone to the farmer is
worth at least ten times ten farm
hands, and by the new rates OF the
Diamond State Telephone Company
costs less than one-tenth Of one farm
hands salary.
Write Mr.. G. A. White, Onancock
Va, who will quote new rate which
will interest you.

STRAIGHT GOODS ON ENcLIsH.

The announcement that Senator PEN
rose OF Pennsylvania has introduced
bill for the preservation Of the English
language is sure q hot one right off. the
bat. The general impression, at least on
our bea:. was that when it came to
handing oat the English language in d
manner that was dead right We were
pretty fly guys. Not only the preserya-
ton, bat the ampIiflcatfon of the Eng
lish language has always been the long
suit Of the American people. and no
matter how fast new punches Of it were
sprung we are always dead next in a
minute. What the Senator's game is we
can't see from here, but we can give
him quiet tip that were for the Eng
nsh language from soda to hook, and
that IL We can give him q liTr at this
graft he won't find any of us with cold
feet. That Is, of course, If it's a straight
deal and he really wants to do the right
thing by the lingo that we are all SO
proud OF. But If it's anything else he
wants to keep his eyes peeled. We've
hunch that any man who tries to mon
key with our mother tongue for political
purposes is going 10 get il in the neck
all he has got coming to him. We of
Indiana. where. perhaps. la politics and
literature, as much English
language per capita as In any other
tainiy won't stand for anything that
gives the language the heavy end of the
log. II there is anything we are touchy
about il is cur English. and whether
III is being used for the hot air of a po-
ltica1 gabfest or the perfectly lovely
men. We want It kept straight and used
without any marks on the deck, and II
will neVed lack for Il gang of husky
guys to see that it doesn't get the worst
