Letter to MI. ID. A. Mizener, Mitchell,

s. l..
Dear Sir: A gallon saved is 81 or
IS earned. Devoe saves 2 or 3 gal
Ions in 10. How much is it worth a
gallon?
A gallon saved saves the painting
too; and both together cost 81 or IS
81 where labor is cheap; IS where
labor is dear.
Our agents in Bridgeport, Conn,
Hubbell & Wade Co. tells us: There
are a great many workingmen's
houses here. They used to paint lead
and-oil and take ten gallons. We
have been selling them ten gallons
Devoe lead-and-Sinc, and have had,
in every instance, two gallons re-
turned" The proportion is often
higher than that; we have known it
five in ten; but that is exceptional.
This is the explanation: Devoe is
ground by machinery, and is ground
fine; lead-and-oil is mixed by hand,
and isn't ground at all. Yours truly,
F. w. Devoe & Co

Washington, Dec. 3-The Presidents
 Message was read to Congress at noon. The document opened with a renewal of the attack on dishonest business methods; declares that prosperity throughout the country still abounds and is on sound basis; asserts that the government should control all railroads aud that all corporations doing an inter state business should be under the di- rect supervision of the government. The Insurance companies, the message says, should be forced to make the widest publicity, especially as regards the insurance of securities controlled by the Insurance companies. It en- dorses the plan for an elastic currency and approves of a system of ship sub sidy to be guarded by the government. The passage of modern tariff reform measure and the strengthening of the laws protecting the people against trusts is recommended. The mainten- ance of a system of postal saving banks and the introduction of the parcel post Is encouraged; the extension of ocean natl service is declared necessary and the protection and encouragement of Legislation guarding forest reserves and the revision of the public land laws Is suggested. Strlcter regulations pro tectlng female and chi'd labor, and the enforcement of the laws against rich and poor alike Is declared imperative.
 The portion of the message dealing with the financial question is stronger than in the one of last year, and fear less reply Is made to the criticism of Wall street fDanclal interests, who
