"A SMALL THING"

DO you believe in progress? Do you
believe that all the wonderful achieve
ments of the nineteenth century-the
railroad, the telegraph, the telephone,
electric light, kerosene, sewing ma
chine, agricultural machinery, steam
ships, trolley cars, etc.-have made
life easier and better worth living? l
do. / believe that man who lives
40 years under modern conditions has
experienced more life and better life
than Methusalem, though he had lived
20 centuries of his time.
The triumphs of the nineteenth cen
tury were triumphs of human service
the placing of knowledge and the
fruits of knowledge within the reach
of the common man. Every mans
life is better, happier, more secure be-
cause of them. We live more comfort
able, more sociable lives in better and
more comfortable houses because OF
them. Even the hopeless dweller in
the worst city slums Is more COM
Portable in his physical conditions than
the middle-class citizen of the days OF
George Washington.
In little things as in great, comfort
and convenience have been the legacy
of the Century of Improvement"
Paint, in a certain sense, is minor
matter, yet it gives beauty, healthful-
ness and durability to our dwellings.
| Fifty years ago painting was a serious
| proposition, a luxury for the owners
of stately mansions who could afford
the expense of frequent renewals. To
day ready mixed paint is so cheap, so
good. and so universal that no house
owner has an excuse for not keeping
his property well painted.
A small thing, indeed; yet several
hundred large factories, employing
thousands of chemists and skilled
workmen, are running every day in
the year to keep our houses fresh
clean and wholesome.
A small thing, yet can of good
ready mixed paint, such as one may
buy from any reputable dealer, EN-
bodies the study of generations OF
skilled chemists, the toll of a thou
sand workmen in mill, laboratory anC
factory, and the product of lons
series of special machinery invented
and designed just to make that car
of paint and to furnish us an infinite
variety of tints, colors and shades.
1t was a wonderful century, tina
nineteenth of our era, and not the
least of its wonderful gifts was tina
same commonplace can of paint,
