HOW TO APPLY PAINT.

Greatest care should be taken when
painting buildings or implements
which are exposed to the weather, to
have the paint applied properly. No
excellence of material can make up
for carelessness of application, any
more than care in applying it can
make poor paint wear well.
The surface to be painted should be
dry and scraped and sandpapered
hard and smooth. Pure white lead
should be mixed with pure linseed oil,
fresh for the job, and should be well
brushed out, not flowed on thick
When painting is done in this manner
with National Lead Company's pure
white lead (trade marked with THE
Dutch Boy Painter') there is every
chance that the job will be satisfac-
tory White lead is capable of abb
solute test for purity National Lead
Company, Woodbridge Building, New
York, will send testing outfit free to
any one interested.

THE CALLAO PAINTER.
Curious Effect of Waters of South
American Port on White Vessels.

Curious Effect of Waters of South
American Port on White Vessels.
Naval officers who have made the
cruise from the Atlantic to the Pacific
at this time of the year are speculat-
ing as to the effect of what is known
as the "Callao painter upon the ships
of the United States battleship fleet
during their stay at CallaO.
The "Callao painter" is peculiar
condition of the water in the harbor
at times, caused by the presence of
Sulphurated hydrogen due to sewer gas
or other cause. Ships painted white,
as are those of Admiral Evans fleet,
have been known to turn a dirty brown
or grayish black within two days
after anchoring in the harbor of Cal
lao. the change being attributed to the
effects of the mysterious "Callao
painter" and that despite the most
persistent scrubbing.
Whether Admiral Evans ships are
fated to encounter the painter, and
thus lose their cleaning whiteness
time alone can tell, but if they dc
there will be unmistakable manifesta-
lions of disgust on the part of the
blueiackets. to whom the cleanliness
of the fleet is a matter of the keeneSt
pride.

Good Hunor and CheerfuIness from

After a most heated debate in the

carried a vote of lack of confidence
in the senate by II to AZ.
The debate was the result of GER
tain anti-Finnish interpretations in the
Russian duma. The socialists formal
ly censured the Finnish administra-
ton for the delivering of Russian ter
r0rists and political agitators to the
Russian authorities, and for lack of
firmness in resisting Russian en-
croachments upon the rights of Fin
land and they demanded the retire
ment of the senate as incapable of de-
Tending the autonomy and liberties Of
Finland against the present reaction

WHERE CLoTHEsPINs ARE MADE
Turned Out by Millions at Montpelier,
VT Much of the Work Done by
Girls.

Turned Out by Millions at Montpelier,
VT. Much of the Work Done by
Girls.
Clothespins by the million, by the
| hundred millions. are turned out in
! Montpelier, VT, every year, and so
great is the demand that preparations
are being made for still further in
! creasing the output.
These are not the old-fashioned
| clothespin, a split stick, but the af-
fair made with a spring of steel wire.
The concern that makes the largest
I number turns out 100000 gross or
more every year, and in addition
makes some forty different kinds of
clips for holding papers and photo
graphs and bottles and test tubes, as
wei las some larger ones for carriage
makers use. but it's principal business
is the manufacture of pins to hold
the family wash on the line.
The old problem what becomes Of
all the pins?" may be supplemented
by this: What becomes of all the
| clOthespins?"
This one concern turns out every
| year more than one clothespin for
every man. woman and child in the
| United States, other factories turn
out considerable quantity. and the
Maine manufacturers put millions of
the old-fashioned kind on the market.
but still the factories are frequently
behind on their orders
The world is their market. Every
! United States clothespin, as the orig
inal invention is caleld. and the
washerWomen Of Peru. Brazil, Aus
tralia, France, Germany, Turkey and
Russia know them just as well. Wher-
ever the cleansed family clothing is
hung out to dry the Montpelier
clOthespins are known.
The spring clothespin is the inven-
ton of Scion G. Morse and was pat
ented in the sos.
The lumber for these clothespins
is cut in and about the little town of
Warren in the Mad River valley, and
/ the wooden pieces that are used in
the pins are fashioned there, being
hauled to Montpelier in carts. The
springs are made in the factory here
and the wooden parts are completed.
The parts when ready are passed to
| deft-handed girls who sit at little
| tables A spring is placed in position
in a machine, two pieces of wood are
put in the proper places, a treadle is
pressed and a finished clothespin
drops out. These are packed paste
board boxes and shipped by the car
| load to the uttermost parts of the
/ earth.

SkYSCRAPERS OF ROME.
Ancient Regulations Regarding the
Height of Tenements and Palaces.

Height of Tenements and Palaces.
THE skyscraper is no modern in
vention," says a st. Louis architect.
we'll read in the history of his profess
sion. I'm all the ancient cities where
brick or stone was available high
houses within the walls of the city
were very numerous because Of the
lack of ground space for building.
In the days of Augustus the tene-
ment houses in Rome became SO high
as to be dangerous and laws were
passed condemning a number of ten
ement rows and ordering them to be
taken down, while at the same time
a law was enacted limiting the height
of all future tenements to 100 feet.
For palaces and public buildings
there was no limit.
After the burning of the city in
Nero's time the streets, which before
were no wider than our alleys, were
made broader; some of them, through
the business part of the city, were
forty feet wide, and some of the great
thoroughfares were sixty.
The tenement height was lowered
to eighty feet, and as a consequence
the city spread far beyond it's walls.
The average height of a ceiling III a
Roman tenement was little over
five feet; the windows were open
holes in the wall, stopped in cold
weather with board shutters So the
worst modern tenement is a palace
compared with the skyscraper home
Of the poor when the empire was at
its best.
