GRADUATING
DRESS IN PERIL.

" MY, my graduating uiVSo 10
gone This mean old Express Com
pany I'll have my cousin Judge
Henry to ARREST them, too. Yes, l
will
Such We're the waiting words OF one
OF Cloverport' '06 graduates at the
depot Tuesday evening OF last week
The seven pretty graduates had order
ed their dresses from different scources
and all of the dresses were on the spot
ready for the stunt except the one that
belonged to the young lady who apeai-
ed at the express office last week.
Is there a package here for me,
asked Miss NJ Nj.
"Yes. and the charges are twenty
five cents.
THANK you, I'll b. back presently
and get It, -
The graduate was accompanied by
two of her girl companions
A few minutes passed Then young
lady appeared at the window and call
ed for Miss Ms package, signed for
it, paid the charges and disappeared
The agent went back 10 his work,
thought no more of the transaction.
A few cycles Of time had been regis
tered upon the clock since the young
lady had signed for the package when
Miss NJ, herself, appeared at the
window and called for the bundle a
bout which she had previously InquiI
ed.
Your package has veen taken '
said the agent.
VINO took it, please
Il don t know The room was dark
and | could Mt tell who it was.
The graduate bad the two same
friends along with her.
WAS it either or these girls |
think it Is very strange you pay no
attention to the parties to whom you
give out packages. The fair young
lady who was about to receive her
diploma was becoming very anxious
about her graduating dress which
happened to be in the missing pack
age.
The agent looked at the two girls
and replied that he saw no resemb-
lance ir either of them to the girl who
had taken the bundle.
The graduate questioned her friends
and every minute brought on more
worry for her. She thought the ex-
press company had allowed this i'm
portant adjunct to her graduation to
go sstray and she became furious at
the company.
"Ill telephone my cousin Judge
Henry Norman to come down here
and arrest this company If don t get
my dress. think the whole business
is mean and hate 1t. "
The agent pr oteste1 that he had done
nothing wrong and had given the
package to the right party. MISS NJ
was in no mode of mind to be .tsmper-
ed with and every word from the
mean old company" caused more
furry to rage in the graduate more or
less occupied space upstairs. Her mind
was full of the four years of High
School ethics but still there was a
place TOR contempt Of the "horrid old
express company.
The evening tram had gone, by this
time, and no peace was III sight. Her
two companions felt trouble brewing
and produced the msdly sought pack
age whicn they, themselves, had taken
from the express agent and liad low to
await a little fun.
But 1t is all over now the graduate
who went into Mysteries over her lost
dress was One OF the prettiest of the
seven who sat about the rostrum in the

Letter to W. w. Grove,
TioneStd, Pa.

DEAR SIR:-If you could get the ex-
elusive sale ofa sweeter sugar for five
miles round-Hlb as sweet as a pound
OF usual sugar, and cost no more-you'd
jump at it, wouldn't you?
There wouldn't be 100 Id of any other
sugar sold in year in your town you'd
gobhle the trade and it wouldn't hurt
your whole business.
Devoe is like that among paints; it is
twice as sweet as some; it is sweeter
than any not one exception one gallon
is two or one-aud-a-halfo or one-and-three-
quarters.
Better than that ; paint has to be
painted that costs 81 to 81 a gallon. A
gallon saved is S2 to 81 saved in labor,
besides the paint.
Even that isn't all. A gallon Devoe
put-on wears as long as two gallons put
on at a cost of 81 to 81 gallon and two
gallons more put-on at 81 to 81 gallon.
Count all that. The paint that wears
double costs less by gallons Of paint
and 3 gallons of painting that's about
Sl5 gallon for those superfluous gallons.
That's as good as double-sweet sugar,
isn't ii?
Yours truly,
f. w. DEvoE Il Co.,
4 New York.
