DIR. HURD, exninister to LiDeria'
and secretary of the African min

Letter to Lon c. Hill.
Brownsville. Texas.

Dear Sir: 1t costs as much to
put-on poor paint as good
common saying and true-it costs
much more to put-on poor paint;
more gallons.
Poor paint is paint and barytes
or paint and sand or paint and lime
or paint and chalk or paint and
benzine or paint and water; these
are the usual cheats; there are
others.
II takes more gallons of paint
and-a-cheat than of honest paint;
and the cost of the labor of paint
ing is so much a gallon-one gal
lon costs as much as another, for
labor.
This is the way to reckon your
costs for this year; but how abou
next year,
Paint Devoe, and next year costs
nothing; year after next the same;
the same for several years.
Paint anything else, and your
costs recur according to what you
paint with. Some of the mixtures
wear one year; some two; some
three.
II costs twice, three times, five
times, as much to paint with a
cheat as to paint with Devoe.
Yours truly

The Automobile Useful.


Automobiles have been put to many
uses. but Il remained FOR clever Ger
mantown electrician to put machine
to a use as novel as It was ingenious,
though simple at that. The arc light
at the northwest corner Of German
town and Cholten avenues suddenly
went out on thursday night. Kicking
tie pole and a dozen other familiar
methods failed to jar the carbons into
proper position.
Then the lamp was lowered, but all
we're afraid to touch It, as no one had
rubber gloves or other insulation. The
chances Of an accident we're increased
by the wet pavement and dripping
lamp. Just then as the darkness and
delay became most vexatious at that
much frequepted corner. an automo-
bile drove up and its owner got out
and went into the postofhce. A happy
thought struck the electrician, and he
had a minu IS hurried conversation
with the owner. The electrician
raised the lamp, while the automobil'
ist drove the machine under IT, Then
the electrician stood on the automobile
safe with the protection Of insulation
from the four rubber tires. and easily
adjusted the carbons, and there was
light again Philadelphia Record.
