His first lecture WAS delivered at

IAN OLD PAINTERS IDEAs"

The autumn season Is coming more
and more to be recognized as most
suitable time for housepainting. Ihere
is no frost deep In the wood TO MAKE
trouble for even the best job OF pal L
ing. and the general seasoning or me
summer has put the wood into goou
condition in every way. The weather,
moreover, is more likely to be settled
for the necessary length OF time 10
allow all the coats to thoroughly dry, a
very important precaution. An OLD
and successful painter said to the
writer the other day: House owners
would get more for their money II they
would allow their painters to take
more time, especially between coats.
Instead of allowing barely time for the
surface to get dry enough not to be
'tacky,' several days (weeks would
not be too much) should be allowed
SO that the coat might set through
and through. 1t is inconvenient, OF
course, but, il one would suffer this
slight inconvenience, it would add two
or three years to the life of the paint"
All this is assuming, of course, that
the paint used is the very best to
be had. The purest of.white lead and
the purest of linseed oil unmixed with
any cheaper of the cheap mixtures,
often known as white Lead" and Oil
which has been doctored with fish oil,
benzine, corn oil or other of the
adulterants known to the trade are
used, all the precautions of the skilled
painter are useless to prevent the
cracking and peeling which make
houses unsightly in a year or so and,
therefore, make painting bills too fire.

She says: AT the time Postum was

physician had repeatedly told me not
to use tea or coffee. Finally / de-

Postum, and got a sample and had it
carefully prepared, finding it deli

its use and very soon its beneficial eff
fects convinced me of its value, for

clear-cut against the background Of
cloud-swept sky. Winslow was q
lover of beauty in the abstract; It's
poetical value appealed to him. and 1t
was with an interest at once sensuous
and impersonal that he studied the girl
before him. An almost classical cor
rectness of outline was given warmth
and tone by subtle charm that
seemed original with her. This charm
lay in the indefinable atmosphere
which enveloped her-gave her a
unique personality. "She seems so
much alive!" was his mental comment
upon the girl whose thread of life lad
become SO closely and suddenly en-
tangled with his own.
Meanwhile the object of his thoughts
said: This has been happy evening,
but l am all the more sad now, realiz-
ing that it is our last glimpse of civil
lied society for many long day. To-
morrow-ah! what will tomorrow
be?' Her voice broke, and Winslow
fastened to say: when l left the
cabin Col. Burr and Mr.. Blennerhasset
were in consultation with your mother;
no doubt matters will be. arranged as
you would wish. II am only sorry
you are not going farther with us. We
we have much enjoyed your COM
pany."
"And we can never forget your kind
ness"
There was a short silence as their
eyes met. Just then a gentleman came
on deck to say that Col. Burr desired au-
dience with Mr.. Winslow. Excusing
himself, Charles went below.
Descending into the cabin, which
served as parlor, he was greeted by
Aaron Burr with formal courtesy.

HE LISTENED TO THE BAND
And, According to the Actress, the
Effect Was Fatal to the
King.

The late Mrs. Gilbert, the veteran
actress, was dancer until middle life.
1t was quite as novice that, at the
age of 40, she began to appear in
speaking parts.
Once, at a reception in Chicago, she
said:
lone of my earliest speaking parts
was played here in your city, and l was
very nervous. was so very nervous,
in fact, that on the first night I made
an error that nearly ruined the per-
Torrance.
II had a small part, the part of an
old nurse. There was dying king,
villain, and band of music in the
piece, and the band of music was sup
posed to be very fine. The queens
life. indeed, was to come near being
ruined through the strange, sweet Sc
ductiveness of this band.
Nothing but compliments Of the
band were to be heard on every side.
"Well in the third act, while the
band was playing its best, | had to
rush on and cry:
"'Stop the music. The king is
dead
What I did, in my nervousness, was
to rush on and cry:
"'Stop the music. 1t has killed the
king!'"
