csptive the large and cultured au-
dience present. The lecture was the
most wonderful exhibition Of word
painting ever heard by Licking
ton audience. 1t was gem of
rhetorical beauty, interpreted with
song and story. The speaker was
introduced by DR.. Quarles.
The brilliant crater moved his
hearers at will, now held them
rapt by the magic of his imagery,
now moved by the recital of some
pathetic story, now provoked to
laughter by some numerous tale.
At the end of every brilliant period
the speaker drew some valuable
and instructive moral, which fairly
thrilled his hearers.
Governor Taylor is known among
his Tennessee friends as the
"Apostle of Sunshine" and right
truly does he merit this epithet.
He declared thst he delighted to
preach the gospel of love and glad
ness, aud would rather scatter Gun
shine along his pathway than to be
regarded a pessimist.

It's sound sense that we tell you.
1t will cost less dollars to paint your

more painting Is done with one gallon
of T. e. M than with two gallons of
other paints, and the l.. 4 M. zipc
hardens the L. 4 NJ White Lead and
makes the L. d NJ. Paint wear like

ANY church will be given liberal
quantity free whenever they paint.
4 gallons L. & Nj. mixed with 8 gal
