Letter to Louis Bender

Dear Sir: We asked City Drug
Co, Crystal Springs, Miss, to sell
Deyoe. They wanted to know, OF
their own knowledge, how 1T com.
pared with another paint they knew
oil about-it was sold right there,
and considered good
They painted the house of w B
McCluney two coats on purpose to
test the two paints against one,an-
other: one coat Devoe 6 gallons; the
other coat that other paint 10 GAL
Ions. Difference, 500; 81 for paint,
$13 for labor
That other paint is made in New
Orleans; is pure is considered an
excellent paint and has a good deal
of local goodwill.
But the standard of paint has
been low all through the southwest
That paint is thin; it Is, you ses,
six-tenths eta paint. Devoe saves
$40 over it on half a ANAL job
1t is a case of local best compar
ed with actual best.
Yours truly,
#. w. DEVOE Il co.

fas Rn.Lns RamLen,

A celebrated musical critic was mar rled 10 church. some years ago. and after the ceremony, as the wedding procession marched down the aisle, the Organlst played the wedding march from "LOhengrln." When near the door, the bridegroom stopped In the march and addressed the wondering assembly thus:
 q know I am committing a breach of etiquette as well as propretg iD doing this, but I am not to blame, It is my mental organization which has become inefably sensitive by reason of the critical nature of my duties"
 Then he drew from the pocket of his dress coat a we'll thumbed copy of the score of "Lohengrin." Opening lt at the march. he went over to the orgauist and said:
 What offended my ear was the fact that In the seventeenth bar of the da capo passage you datted very badly, and In the andante movement you slurred the appoggIatura. Now" put ting hls finger upon the passage. let us try that again"
 Once more the organ peaied forth, and this time the player conscious that the great critic was listening to him. accomplished his duty with credit to himself and to the great satisfac- ton ot the crIdc.-Loudon Standard.

Perhaps nowhere ln the world Is family affection stronger than among the Chinese, yet their method Of deal Ing with the sick Is pitiable Go the more enlightened world When fa- yorite son falls ul hls life depends largely upon 8 package of Joss sticks. The grleyIDg father seeks a joss house, procures a handful of these sticks and, taking them home, lights them. He shakes them gently. Soon one falls. Is lt lighted: Eagerly the father watches 1t.

the large bulk Of the Jewish immlgra-
ton and numbered 6 6,O56 in the year end
ing June 80, 1906 as compared with
6,2O6 in the preceding twelve months.
Polish Jews numbered A, Austrian
Jews pa, and German Jews 36, against
151. 24O and 11S respectively in the
earlier year. The 7,127 immigrants con-
sisted Of 1852 males, 2,O35 females and
2,24O children. An analysis OF the occu-
patton classes Of the males showed that
to the farming class there belonged 26|;
the general laborers class numbered 4S9;
mechanics numbered 1870: clerks,
traders, ETC., 1873, and miners 5. A fur
ther analysis Of the destination OF the
whole 1927 immigrants on arrival in
Canada shows that 1859, or fifty per
cent, intended to settle in the province
of Quebec, probably almost entirely in

The report of the immigration officer
for western Canada stationed at Winnl-
peg, complains that Every few OF the
Hebrew immigrants of the past year
have settled on land permanently, but
persist in remaining in towns or ped
ding goods about the country: For this
reason they cannot be classed as likely
homesteaders or extensive producers IN
an agricultural country like western
Canada" He adds, however, that the
district Of Wapella contains some OF the
best Hebrew farmers in the West, their
land under cultivation ranging from
IS to 200 acres on their respective farms
These people go in for mixed farming,
and that portion Of their land which is
not cultivated is fenced for pastoral

The full report Of the Canadian gov

during the year ending June ~, 1910,
has just been received. The rapid growth
into favor Of British North America IS
shown by the fact that in the year end

immigrants was 1S9,O64 against 146, ,266

Tortured and harassed through a long
stretch of centuries, they nevertheless,
have not surrendered, nor yielded. The
recently parpetrated atrocities have not
been prompted by religious fanatcism
or credulous bias, but they emanated
chiefly from racial hatred and tribal dis
like.
The ROumanian people are clannish
and cannot suffer the overwhelming
forces of superior aliens in their midst.
The soil is virgin, the land uncultivated,
the country unsettled, the industry is
embryonic and commerce has not devel-
oped as yet; while the professions have
been exploited by intelligent strangers.
No wonder then that the latter are con-
sidered usurpers, vampires and robbers,
in which instance Catholics and Protes-
tants share the aversion with the Jews,
the dominating faith being the Greek
Orthodox Christians under the snibbol-
eth of avcnging the Savior's crucifxion,
butcher Jews every now and then as a
sacrificial sppeasement
Now, let us ponder upon the subject d
little while
If the long awaited Messiah would one
bright morning descend from heaven,
put an appearance on the economical,
social or political arena and venture to
enforce upon his adherents the detailed
fulfllment of all the particulars stated
in the sermon on the mountain, would
he not be lynched for the mere attempt
of an encroachment upon the peoples
rights and privileges?
While nations came and nations
dwindled, passing into oblivion, the
Jews remained solid, compact and sturdy

cadence.
They are profound, prolific, indllstr-
Gus, enterprising and generous.

Noses the great law-giver!
Moses, the greatest scientist, physicist,

Moses! Who can mention his name
without awe and reverence?
The king of kings, to whom all SOW
ereigns must need render homage and
all rulers bend their knees, leaving their
thrones far behind.
Creating his people, he injected within
them the elixir OF eternal life, which
made them withstand all the storms,
ancient, medaeval and modern.
Open the Book of Leviticus and you
will find all regulations for the preven-

Mr.. Smallwood says We can't
expect to sell all the -four in MI
not. Why not? Other towns
and cities that have a flour mill
use the home made goods exclu-
sively; why should not the Minot
dealers do the same? The gro
GERS expect to sell all the grocer
les consumed in Minot; VIII.
should the mill be denied the
same privilege?
Mr.. Smallwood again says
that anyone using the writer's
methods of doing business in
any other line wouldn't last two
weeks. The writer has about
the same opinion Of Mr.. Small
woods way OF doing business.
consequently it hasn't much
weight with him.
Now as to Mr.. Smallwood's
col tention that we will not be
able TO undersell him or any
other merchant. Will say we do
not intend to sell flour just for
the sake of beating some zone g
price, but we assure him that the
writer will be able to handle him
self properly at the proper time.
Now in view of the facts pre-
scented, why haven't we the same
rights as the grocer to run our
business as we see fit? Ct
In conclusion will say that We
have always held tho grocers
and merchants of Minot in the
highest esteem and think yet
that their policy in regard to the
home mill is really more the re-
suit of thoughtlessness than
malice and the Minot Flour Mill
company stands ready at any
time to give the grocers 9 square
deal as soon as they, the gro
GERS, will guarantee in return to
give the mill a square deal.
