MUCH PAINT WORTHLESS

That the state law regulating the
sale of paints is of little use is demon
strated by a bulletin issued by Edward
K. Slater, dairy and food commission

s. AS an Illustration Of the fraud which
is being perpetrated upon buyers and

that he purchased the paint with the UNI

We cannot give the name of the manu-

trolium oil Legal"
The chemists analysis indicates as a

AS we have already stated in a for.

market, which is worthless and NJ
greater fraud is being perpetrated upon
the people of the state than thru the

It is a fraud in several ways for the

The price paid for it is lost, the labor

is lost, and even after it has been spread
over building there is no body to pro-

protect the public against this fraud be-
cause the legislature has seen fit to legis

NO MORE SlDEW AXIS;
COUNCIL DIDN'T ACT

Many property owners who were
planning to improve their premises
with stone sidewalks next season will
be disappointed, for they cannot be
ordered. A special meeting Of the
council was to have been held last
evening to pass a number of belated
resolutions for stone sidewalks, but.
quorum failed to develop and the alder
men were forced to adjourn without
doing business. Today is the last day
for levying special assessments. Al,
derman Westphal wanted the council
to adjourn until today in order to pass
the resolutions, but Alderman Rand
called attention to the fact that the
aldermen who were most interested in
the measures before the council were
the very ones who were absent. When
this was made apparent, those present
refused to meet again today.
