Letter to A. c. Peterson.
Scotland Neck, N. G..

Dear Sir: If you should bake bre; d
that people like better than any other,
and at less cost by the day, you'd
have pretty-good business, wouldn't
you?
We have just such a business as
that in paint; a gallon goes futher
than any other gallon of paint in the
country that's bread at less cost by
the day; but the difference isn't so
small as it is in bread. And job
wears longer-that's bread at less
cost by the year. People hate to
paint; it costs money to paint; and
they hate the fuss. They like cur
bread by the year.
If your bread is better than any
bodyelse's, and costs less too, you've
got good trade; for people do like
good bread; and people like money.
1t doesn't take long to find-out; give
'em time.
But you can't bake better-th than
any-body-else's bread for half the
usual price for a breakfast, can
you?
-Devoe is just such paint as that.
The price by the gallon or loaf is no
matter. Count by the day week
month year lifetime. Devoe is tie
bread. We hope yours is as good.

Like New Jersey and Delaware, the tempta-

points. Then there would be crashing and
wailing. But 'carpelbagging" died a num-
Der OF years ago, and the free air OF
Nebraska could not hold Il long. The

very policy Mr.. Yeiser would iniiet still
more grievously, have had to retire their
political managers. though they die hard
am constrained to think that Nebraska
is getting pretty well loaded down with
auxiliary helps. Instead Of creating more,
the legislature might enlarge the duties Of

more clerical and expert assistance when

Mickey's message that the ONCE Of deputy
