ADMITTED

PAINT YOUR HOUSE with DEVOE
PAINT and you will have job that
will stay with you. After all has been
said by dealers selling other Paints
it finally comes back to the point
where you will be ready to admit the
truth of the claim that DEVOE Paint
is the BEST to buy and the BEST to
use. 1t has times without number
proven itself to be the paint that goes
further and lasts longer than all other
paints. If it goes further gallon for
gallon than other paints-and 1t does
and lasts longer-and it does-isn't
that evidence enough to convince you
that DEVOE is the paint for you to
use when you paint your buildings.
DEVOE paint is sold all over the
United States and the same story is
told everywhere. 1t goes further-It
lasts longer.
1t is not as good as some paints for
the dealer and the painter-lt lasts
too Iong-it's not good paint for the
nainter-it makes the time too long
between jobs. Good for the buyer.

The Mutual Benefit
Life Insurance co.
FOR 81 YEARS

This company has stood for ALL
that is BEST in American Life lnsur-
ance. 1t has proved that it is possible
to uphold what Is right and oppose what
is wrong and succeed in building up
and maintaining a great business. the
recent Investigations show these facts.
The large annual dividends, low pre-
MUM rates and liberal policy forms
make the contract of The Mutual Ben
eft the most desirable to be had. We
sell you more insurance for less money
than any other reputable Life Insur-
ance Company doing a legitimate bus
mess. In justice to yourself and tam
iIy YOU should investigate the forego-
ing claims before you buy Life 1nsur-
ance. 1t is my business to place every
fact necessary to an intelligent under
standing Of the company's claims, con-
tracts and record before you.

1.-THE BEST
ON EARTH"
Broad assertion, you say.

Well. we can CONVINCE YOU
without a doubt. We have just re-
ceived a CARLOAD OF OLIVER
CHILLED PLOWS, and we claim that
they are the BEST ON EARTH. They
are sold all over Europe, Asia, Africa,
North and South America, and In fact
wherever land is titled. Now, as to
their superiority over all other plows.
That Is admitted by all When you
hear this fellow, that fellow and the
other fellow say anything about the
plow he Is trying to sell, he will in
variably say, "It is as good as the
Oliver" But no better, thus admit
ting that the Oliver Is the BEST. So,
when you buy a plow you will make
no mistake IL you buy an OLIVER.
The Oliver is guaranteed against
any flaws. Any part Of an Oliver
that breaks as the result of sandholes
or other defects, is replaced FREE
OF CHARGE.

MINING NOTES.

Gwin. 1t is reported that this mine
is looking as we'll, if not better, than
at any period in its history under
the present company. Last month
the gross output was between s45, OO0
and $50, GOO, and a dividend of %
cents per share declared-the first
dividend for over two years. The
improvements in this property will
have important bearing on the min,
ing industry of that section both on
the Amador as we'll as the Calaveras
side of the Mokelumne river. From
Middle Bar, clear to opposite the
Gwin mine gulch, the country is held
for mining locations S but none of
them are being worked in any system
attic manner. There is no reason wby
mines equal to the Gwin should not
be developed in that region. The
Gwin is once more taking a place
with the most prolific producers of
the mother lode.

The rainstorm which set in last
Saturday has continued through most
of the week. On Monday the streams
herebouts were very high. The ground
is throughly soaked and all the mois
ture IN the shape of rain for the past
few days has found it's way into the
creeks and rivers. The temperature
has been quite cold. Snow has fallen
in considerable quantity Oh the hills
around Clinton, but so far the white
mantle has failed to put in an appear
apce in jackson. The rainfall to date
measures 23.4i inches against 22.1
for the corresponding period last
year, and %. % inches for the season
of 1904. The total rainfall for last
year was 81 inches, and the out
look is favorable that the preciplta-
tion this year will closely press If it
does not exceed, the figures of the
previous seasun.
