letter to E. E. Perry.
Brattleboro VT.

Dear Sir: When you see well-dressed
man, you like to say: There's
sample of my clothes That man is
worth two of himself as he was when he
came to me-"
We have the same feeling. Our paint
on a house is worth twice as much as
Old-fashioned painters paint, lead-and-
oil. 1t looks the same when first put on.
In three months 1t don't. In three years
1t decidedly don't.
Lead-and- oil chalks off in three years:
1t is considered a first rate job that
lasts three years.
Devoe lead-and-zinc is about as good
in three years as it was the day the
painter left it.
Zinc is the secret of 1t: no secret at
all. A good many painters know zinc;
some mix it with their lead. We grind
it in: not little: good deal
It's the zinc and the grinding that does
it, You can't mix zinc by hand. We
grind 1t in by machinery.
Painters are finding us out, though
some painters are slow.
You know that IL pays a good man to
wear good clothes. How many customers
have you that know It?
Yours truly
F. w. Devoe & Co.

For 1aky pastry sift together three
and a half cups of sifted -four, half a
%teaspoonful of baking powder and a
teaspoonful of salt. Thoroughly work
in half a cup of lard, then moisten with
half a cup of very cold water. Turn on
to a Toured board and roll into a thin
oblong. Wash half a cup Of butter in
cold water and work until smooth, pat
ting out all the water; then shape into
one-third the size Of the pastry, laying
1t in the middle and folding one side
evenly over it and the other side on top
thus: Fold one end over and the other
end under the butter, pat gently to
press out any air bubbles, then roll in
to oblong strip. Fold again evenly to
make three layers, turn half round and
roll again. Repeat the folding and roll
ing twice more, and the pastry is ready
for use. This process sounds tedious,
but really is very simple. The paste
should be soft enough to roll easily, but
not be sticky.
Pastry should not be rolled back and
forth. Instead, a long continuous mo-
ton from the point nearest the operator
to the other side should be used, press
ing lightly with the rolling pin. To
shape it use a sweeping motion to the
side. but always lift the rolling pin
and start in again at the point near

De Chauxville was vain, but he was
clever enough to conceal his vanity.
He was hurt, but he was mar enough
to hide 1t. Under the passivity which
vas his by nature and practice he had
learned to think very quickly. But
now he was at a disadvantage. He
was unnerved by his love for Eta, by
the sight of Eta before him daringly,
audaciously beautiful, by the thought
that she might never be his.
1T is not only that l love you" he
said; that l have a certain position to
offer you. These l beg you to take at
their poor value. But there are other
circumstances known to both of us
which are worthy of your attention,
circumstances which may dispose you
to reconsider your determination"
"Nothing will do that" she replied;

and thinking of Paul Alexis.

Japan and Christianity.
II we are able to discern by taking a
long enough perspective the hand Of
God in the events Of human history
and to regard all of them, both secular
and religious. SO called, as within the
scope Of the divine care, it must be
true that God, who changes not, still
ought to be recognized as the master

Take, for Instance, the great oriental
struggle, in which there stands that
old sixteenth century Christianity hid
ing behind its icons, worshiping them
almost to the point Of idolatry, carry
ing the name and the banners of the
cross everywhere, but manifesting
hardly the slightest flavor of its true
spirit, fighting against that little pow

power which within the last fifty
years has taken strides toward what is
known as practical Christianity such
as no nation yer dreamed of taking.
| venture to say that in the hearts of
nine-tenths Of the people whom I ad-
dress Japan stands today as the truer
representative Of Christian civilization
than her opponent by far, and as she
