PINS HIS FAITH TO WATER.
Former Sufferer from Rheumatism
Says He Has Found Cure.

ooyo TIC TIaS FOuHu 1uTCs
IF people afflicted with rheumatism
would only try a simple remedy right
at hand instead of scurrying all over
the country for a cure they would get
well a good sight quicker" said Harry
Sprague, who was once SO knotted up
with rheumatism that he had to use
crutches. "Just let them drink water,
quarts OF II. That's what did the bust
ness for me-. | drink about three
quarts OF water n day-not ice water,
but just ordinary cold water as IL
comes from the faucet. / drink two
glasses when / get up in the morning,
two when | go to bed, and | drink 1t
al day. ! have a big pitcher Of It put
on my desk, and whenever | look up
from my work for a minutes rest |
drink a glass of water. No mineral
water, no charged water, no health
water for me, but just plain, good old
fashioned Croton. To be sure, the salt
water baths at the shore did me q
little good, but the damp days at the
shore took ali the good away. Now
take fresh water baths internally and
spend my summers where 1t Is high
and dry."-New York Press.

Chicano Banana Famine

Chicago, Aug. 17.-With the visible
supply of bananas reduced to half
the original amount because of the
restrictions on importation made by
the quarantine in New Orleans, whole
sale dealers along South Water street
are predicting a famine in the fruit.
Prices in the last two weeks have
shown a steady rise until they are a
bout double what they were a month
ago. The demand is greater than the
supply.

Letter to II K Stevens
Island P0nd, Vermont.

Dear Sir: Why, do you think, can
Devoe sell pure paint as low as others
sell adulterated paint?
There are 30 or 40 or 30 different
makers of paint, that rank, in way, as
first class" they have their regions;
ones region is large, another's is small
everyone is Nfrst class in its region.
Of these 30 or 40 or 80, one is best,
another next, and so on down but the
prices are all the same or about the same
you can buy one for less than another
t ough; personal matter sometimes.
But how, do you think, can Devoe sell
the best for no more than the rest? The
answer Isl it costs less to sell it; more
to make, less to sell. Reputation helps
sell it. Its $50 years help sell it.
Go by the name.
Yours truly,
81 F. w. DEvOE

Travelling Is Not Altogether an Un-
Mixed Delight.
A lady travelling in Japan gives the
following sketch of an inn at which
she stopped: THE landlord and his
wife and the servants all come to talk
to you and when you inform the COM
pany that you are sleepy and want
your bed laid, everybody says at once,
Honorable bed augustly is it?' but no
body does anything, and when at last
you have achieved your desire you
have to force apart, in defiance of po-
lice regulations, the wooden shutters
which Theoretically seal the house, in
order to avoid being smothered with
the fumes Of charcoal and humans. AS
soon as things are quiet enough rats
chase over the rooms and generally
over you as well, and sometimes bite
you. One o'clock in the morning, in
the old Japanese reckoning, was called
the hour of the rat, doubtless for this
reason. And all night long the watch
man sounds his rattle to show that he
is attending to his duties. You have
to be up with the cock to get the first
go at the bath, which is only filled
once, and the wash hand basin, which
is only as large as a cake tin, is al
ways kept in the veranda."

But haven't you lessons for which
