Letter to Rev. w. r. Bennett
Morristoa0qa. ". J.

Rev. Sir: In making your pastoral
visits, of course, you do not consider
your pleasure or comfort or ease; you
go where your people live. But you
have two sets of feelings in going
about-can't help tive all have.
But you especially have; for part of
your business is sympathy. Well-kept
lawns and well-tilled fields. nice homes
and nice people, are cheerful to
you, as they are to everyone.
Tumble-down buildings, poor fences,
men harrassed by burdens too heavy
for them, OverwOrked women, and
dirty-faced children, you may be strong
to get on with; but you would be more
than human to find inspiration in
misery.
Paint divides the two sorts Of people;
one paints, and the other don IT,. Or,
perhaps, the thrifty paint well; the
unthrifty paint i'll.
To paint we'll is to keep paint sound.
There are two ways to do it: one is
bound to paint often; the other to use
good paint.
1t costs about half as much to paint
Devoe & Reynolds as to paint with
any other paint; for Devoe takes fewer
gallons than mixed paints and wears
twice as long as lead-and-Oil.
The thrifty and comfortable have
the art of using money more wisely.
How lucky they are how happy !
Sos Yours truly,
f. w. DEvOE 81 q. i. RAYNoLDs Co

RAILROAD NOTES.


Officials Of the Delaware, Lackawan-
ma and Western Coal Company an
nounce that the new breaker, the
Truesdale, named after the president
of the company and the largest in the
world, has been completed, 1t marks
an innovation in breaker building, as
all the coal under the CRATE size will
be picked by mechanical coal pickersH
and the breaker boys will be dispensed
with.
The breaker, which cost $4,000, is
built over new mine now being
opened in the richest territory in the
coal field, and fourteen veins will be
mined. 1t is equipped throughout
with electric lights to reduce the fire
danger and all the machinery is run
by electricity. Its maximum capacity
is 5000 tons day.
Plans are out and contract has
been signed by the Lackawanna for
new system of cleaning the cushions
and the interiors of the passenger
coaches at the terminal The system
is to be installed by the Vacuum Clean
er Company, of New York, of which
General Manager Besler, of the New
Jersey Central, is vice-president. I'm
der this system the work Of cleaning
is done by suction, instead of by blow
ing, as at present. and is considered
far superior to anything at present in
use for this purpose.
To further safeguard the Bergen
tunnel the Erie Railroad has laid
nickel steel rails all through it, These
are the first lot of nickel steel rails
that the Erie has laid. In boring
holes in them to attach the electric
circuit wires the metal was found to
be so hard that it broke many of the
bits used id the work. The Lacka-
wanna has also given attention to its
Bergen tunnel by removing the old
eighty-pound steel rails and SUBSTITUTE
