Is it right that a property owner

agent does On eight gallons of L. & N
paint and six gallons of linseed oil
which make fourteen gallons of the
best paint in the world, at $l.20 per
gallon. the property-owner loses just
81 20. Is it right?

AVOID CONTAGI0N
and INFECTION


Contagious and infectious diseases are
prevalent. The use of reliable disinfectant
protects the household. Dusty or damp cor
ners and cracks-nooks behind plumbing
and all spots that can't be reached by the
scrubbing brush, should be freely sprinkled
with mixture of one % part Platt's Chic
rides and ten QO) parts of water. This
t7ilaSti01 costs less than 3 cents quart.
Use it freely in the waste-pipes, sinks and
closets and do not neglect liberal sprink-
ling of the cellar. To remove Objectionable
odors where sprinkling is inadvisable a
cloth, wrung out of the dilution mentioned,
should be placed over or near the article.
A little extra care just now may prevent
much sickness and expense. Platt's Chic
rides is an odorless, colorless liquid which
instantly destroys foul odors and disease
breeding matter 1t has been freely sub
mitted to Physicians, Sanitarians and Boards
of Health for rs years, and over $4,000
written endorsements have been received
from them. It is sold everywhere in full
quarts bottles, and is prepared only by
Henry B. Platt, New York.

ago which settled in catarrh and serious
