Dear Sirs: Poterhouse, so much; neck, so much; all the way between.
 Just so with paint Devoe lead and zincis the porterhouse. Nobody want s the neck, the between, some say, IS good enough for them.
 But Devoe costs less, not more than between Lead and-Oi is between, it is the old-faShion paint, but zinc has come in. Zinc tuughens white lead. Dev0e lead -and-zinc is the paint that wears twice as long as lead-and-oil.
 MT. John NJ Deitre Fair Haven, N. Y., writes:
 MT. Charles Hollenbeck, of this place. painted his house, three years ago with Devoe lead -and-zinc; his father painted at the same tune with lead-an i.oil. To-day the sons house looks ss well as the day it was paint ed. while the fathers is all chalked and needs painting oadly. The fath- CT says he will paint with Devoe next time. Yours truly.

Good Advice.

If your children are subject to croup you should never be without bottle of Harts' Honey and Horehound in the house. It is a sure and speedy cure and we have never known It to fail. If you give it as soon as hoarseness appears, it will prevent croup in every instance. Mothers should remember thls as Harts' Honey and Horhound has saved the lives of many children subject to croup when nothing else gave relief. There is no danger in giving this medicine to small children in large or frequent doses. Sold by J. T. Nelson, Drug gist.
