Letter to j. DOnneIIy
Morrfstoaon, N. J.


Dear Sir: Now, may be, you can't
get the goods If you can, your fortune
is made.
Cotton cloth-they call it muslin in
so ne partS-about the usual price per
yard, but wider, twice as wide as some !:
and better, wears better, keeps white
and whole a surprising time in all sorts
of wear.
You could sell that cloth for hum
dreds of miles there'd be no limit.
A yard goes further; one buys less
yards. Wears longer; one buys less
often. 1t always looks right till well
worn-out. No one customer buys so
much of it, but think of the number of
customers
May be you can t get it in cloth but
you can in paint Devoe & Reynolds.
nevoe is as if it were wider: a ga lol
goes further you buy less gallors;
you pay for less gallons; you pay for
painting less gallons as If one paid
less for making a garment Of that wide
cloth and it keeps its fresh looks and
sheds water till you have forgotten
how old it is.
1t isn't true in cloth, but it is in
paint the less you pay, the better it
Is; for the goodness of paint is reckon
ed by gallows; less gallons more good
ness. Goodness in paint is strength.
The stronger a paint, the less gallons
it takes for job and the longer II
wears.
Yours truly,

Plans For New building.
In conformity with the capitol build
ing the B street front Of the senate
office building win show three stories
above ground, but the grade falls away
so rapidly on Delaware avenue and
First street that the O street front
will be five stories above ground, the
lowest story being the subbasement.
The architectural treatment Of the B
street, Delaware avenue and @ street
fronts Of the senate Office building Is
identical with the treatment Of the
corresponding fronts Of the house Of
fee building.
The building will contain in the three
principal stories ninety-nine Office
suits of two rooms, ten single offices
and six committee rooms besides the
conference room and the dining room.
There will also be rotunda at Della
ware avenue and B street, as In the
house Office building, with the main

sew Bridge Opened.

The new bridge of the Washington,
Alexandria and Mount Vernon railway
over Little Hunting creek Virginia,
which has been under construction for
several months, has been completed.
The erection of the new bridge was
rendered necessary by the changes that
have been made In the grade of the
railway within the past year, in order
to do away, as much as possible, with
the steep ascent from Little Hunting
creek to Mount Vernon, which required
the expenditure of much power and
was wearing on the ears that had to
crawl up the hill at very slow rate.
Sounded That Way.

ment had occasion to call at the house

the doorbell After a long wait a head

The exterior Of the building is to be
classic in design. 1t suggests in its
general division Of parts the Garde
Mobile on the Place de la Concorde,
Paris, while the paviIions are modelled
on those Of the Colonnade du Louvre.
Alphabetically the front is divided into
two parts, the lower, corresponding to
the first story Of the building. const-
tuting "rusticated" base on which,
extending through the second and third
stories, is the colonnade, surmounted
by its entablature and balustrade
Identical In Design.
The senate and house Office buildings,
each occupying the same position in
relation to the capitol, are indentical in
size and design. The height of the
buildings has been restricted that they
may not overpower the capitol, and
they have been kept simple in design,
without pediments, doInes or other ac-
centuated points of architectural inter
est, any of which, it was felt, would
detract from the effect Of the capitol
building. This does not mean that the
Office buildings viii be uninteresting by
any means. The long colonnades and
the pavilions will be both interesting
and impressive, with sufficient orna-
ment and other detail judiciously
placed so as to heighten the general
effect

 Every housekeeper in this city is to be, ex-officio. a member of the cam paign committee. with the 300 members of the club as district chairmen.
 we don't need pure f1od laws" said Mrs. Mary R. Hummer, at the club Imeeting in Music hall. we don't need anything under the sun but the house. keepers to know what they want and then to go to market themselves and insist upon getting it.
 'The average woman is much to blame for not knowing her own bus iness-the provisioning of household. We live the simple life too much by telephoning over to the grocer fer gan of something and then trusting to Pfov- Hence that what's init won't hurt us. "
 R. M Allen of Lexington. Ky. state secretary of the recently formed Asso- ciation of State and National Food and Dairy Departments, furnished the club women with their campaign platform.
 Gives Suggestions to Women.
 At the close of an address on food adulteration which constituted the for nal part of the afternoons program. MT. Allen made the following sug- gestions:
 First-Don't buy foods that contain artificial color and antiseptics.
 Second-Exnibit an interest in the origin and quality of your food.

 Fourth-Call into your meetings the officials of the health and pure food departments of the city and govern ment; get in touch with the inspectors
 Fifth-Insist on {. detailed report from the Health Department on the hygienic condition of every dairy sup plying milk to Chicago.
 Sixth-Insist on cement or tile floors

in every slaughter house, large or small, at the stockyards; insist on good sew craze and clean methods for working up by-products into sausage.
 seventh-Insist on a detailed report on the hygienic condition of every fruit and veeg.able factory, bakery, ice cream factory, and restaurant.
 Eighth-If such reports are denied, employ fair and intelligent workers and get the reports yourselves
 Ninth-Insist on the appointment of the best talent for inspection work Tn dairies, factories and stores.
 Tenth-Don't drop the subject for at least two years.
 Cold Storage Business "Ruined."
 The city meat markets and groceries, the dairy farms, and the stockyards will be the immediate objects of attack.
 The other day." said Mrs. Hummer. "I telep.,oned my butcher fer chicken, and told him to be sure 1t wasn't a cold storage one.
 "'No, 1t won't be cold storage chicken he said You and two or three other women have ruined that business foJ U.e.'
 He had a grudge against me for spelling his business. wish more butchers had such grudges against Chia cago women. We must go into this ourselves and use our common sense" "
 Every housekeeper will be urged to make at least one annual visit to the farm which supplies the milk for her household. and withdraw her patron age if hygienic conditions are not found. Butter will be taken to the city laboratories for analysis.
 Want Improvement at Yards.
 At the stockyards improvement of sanitary conditions and the substitu- ton of metal and cement for wood in cars and wagons as well as floors will be fought for. Mrs. Harriet Van der Vaart urged the establishment of more rigid regulations for meat to be used in hospitals and sanitariums. As things are now." said Mir. Van der Vaart, "the Government inspec- tors pass a good deal of meat from an- imals with diseased glands"
 The suggestion of a national pure food congress came from Mrs. Ellen M. Henrotin.
