Dear Sir: Let's have little private
talk by ourselves on business; nobody
else, please, read.
You want TO know how to do cheap
lob of painting, and have it look good.
Here it is: The cheapest thing there
is in the way of a gOOd-lOoking job
say nothing about its being goods
Devoe the regular thing in DevOe
The reason is: DevOe goes further
than anything else Lead-and'Oil is
good-looking don't go 60 far and costs
more. The other paints are more or less
short in one way or another; don't go
so far and costs more than DevOe.
Devoe costs least Of all you don't
mind its lasting longer, do you? We
can t help it a paint that goes further
lasts longer we can't help it.
Yours truly,

SHAKES DICE WITH
RIVAL FOR HIS WIFE

CHICAGO, July 21.-Louis r. Adams
proposed a game Of dice with a rival
for his Town wife's affections. Strange
to say he won, then his wife sued for
divorce and she won.
That this way of settling a threat
ened tragedy had been used by Adams
and Louis Drake disclosed in Judge
McEwen's court, where Adams is seek
ing to have the divorce his wife OBJ
tanned three weeks ago set aside. In
keeping with the strange story of the
dice game is the marriage ceremony
between Adams and his wife, as de-
scribed by the wife.
I'VE were to be married." she said,
land Mr.. Adams came to my house
with a marriage certificate. He told
me that as he had so much influence
with the authorities it was not neces-
sary to go to a justice. I believed him
and hung the certificate on the wall"
After this marriage Drake, who is a
storekeeper on the west side appeared
on the scene. That he and Mrs Adams
were friendly was told by brakes
mother, who caught them caressing
each other in brakes store. Mrs.
Adams at that time was employed by
Drake.
When Adams heard of this he was
furious at first. Then he decided that
the best way to settle matters would
be in a peaceful fashion. He went to
Drake, and according to the testimony,
the dice game was arranged. Anna
Taylor 800 Marshfield avenue, vouched
for the story.
Mrs. Adams rushed into my store
one night" she said land told me that
she had begun divorce proceedings
against her husband and that at that
time he and Drake were across the
street shaking dice for her hand"
Adams won the game and now In
sists on his rights to his wife as being
REINFORCED by the dice game.

l RELIABLE REMEDY FOR DY-

As the season is at hand when diarr-

liable remedy should always be kept
in the house for immediate use. The
success of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy in the treat
ment of bowel trouble, has brought it
into almost universal use and the fol-
lowing letter indicates it is giving salts
