HOW TO KNOW PURE PAINT.
A Way in Which It May Be Identified
Before Using.

After a building has been painted
long enough for a weather test, it is
easy to tell if the paint used was made
of pure White Lead or not. But such
telated knowledge comes like locking
the barn after the colt is stolen.
What one wants is a test that will
tell the quality of the paint before it
and the labor of putting it on are
paid for.
Nature has provided way in which
genuine White Lead may be positive
~ distinguished from adulterated or
fake White Lead before you spend a
cent on your painting.
Pure White Lead is made from me-
tallic lead, and, under intense heat,
such as is produced by blow-pipe,
pure White Lead will resolvcitself back
into metallic lead IT, however, it is
not genuine White Lead or if it con-
tains the slightest trace Of adultera-
ton, the change will not take place
Therefore the "blowpipe" test is an
absolute and final one.
The National Lead Company are
| urging everyone interested in painting
to make this test Of paint before using
it, and they guarantee that the pure
White Lead sold under their Dutch
| Boy Painter" trademark will always
prove absolutely pure under the elbow
| pipe or any other test To make it
easy for YOU to perform the expert
ment they will send you free upon re-
quest blowpipe and everything nee
essary for you to make the test, to-
gether with a valuable booklet on

There is universal sympathy
for the sad accident which befell
Orville Wright and Lieutenant
Selfridge, when they fell from
the 75-foot elevation in Wright's
aeroplane. During the past
week, thousands of people from
Washington and from other parts
of the country have f1ocked in
automobiles and in carriages to
Fort Myers, where the wonder
full experiments that have filled
the world with expectation have
been made. Great as has been
the advance in recent months,
resulting in flying feats at which
the world wondered, it is now
clear that the experimental stage
has not yet been passed. A test
at the hands of so competent a
flyer as OrVille Wright, who has
broken all records, was no doubt
as promising as human ingenuity
could make it, but human inge-
nulty cannot prevent accident
with wagon, automobile, or any
machine, and when that accident
happens in midair, it is necessa-
rlly more tragic and disastrous
than on terra firma. Skeptics
with reference to the success of
flying machines are strengthened |
and with reason-in their dis |
belief and the accident at Fort |
Myers has proven almost conclu-
slveIy that it will never be DOS
slble to use airships for long voy-
ages or for the transportation of |
passengers. The slightest acci-
dent will force the machine to
the ground and even if the pas
sengers escape accident the ma
chine may be miles from a point
where it can be repaired. Thom-
as A. Edison, in a recent inter
view given in Salt Lake Citv,

less airships will be carrying pas
