LETTER TO wATTs-nAa1BERD co
cIarlfsburg, w. Va.

Dear Sirs: Now, may be, you can't
get the goods; IL you can. your for
tune is made.
Cotton cloth-they call it muslin in
some parts-at about the usual price
per yard, but wider; twice as wide as
some, and better. wears better, keeps
white and whole surprising time in
all sorts of wear.
You could sell that cloth for hun
dreds Of miles; there'd be no limit.
A yard goes further one buys less
yards. Wears longer; one buys less
often. 1t always looks right until
worn out. No one customer buys so
much Of #. but think OF the number
of customers!
May be you can't get 1t in cloth:
but you can in paint. Devoe. De-
voc is as If 1t We're wider; a gallon
goes further; you buy less gallons;
you pay for,tess gallons; you pay for
painting less gallons-as IL one paid
less for making garment of that
wide clothland 1T keeps its fresh
look and sheds water until you have
forgotten how old it is.
1t isn't true in cloth, but it is IN
paint: the less you pay the better 1t
is; for the goodness of paint is reck-
oned by gallons; less gallons, more
goodness. Goodness in paint IS
strength. The stronger a paint the
less gallons It takes for a job and the
longer 1t wears.
Yours truly,

SAILOR CUTS HIS THROAT.
Joseph Matuservitsch Commits Sui
eide in Lodging House by Cutting
His Throat.

Joseph Matuservitsch, Russian
sailor about 2S years of age, COM
mitted suicide by cutting his throat
with razor at the Star lodging
house, on Wishkah street last Thurs
day night.
Matuservitch arrived in this port
about ten days before on a sailing
vessel, and had been acting strangely
since his arrival in the city. He had
applied and been accommodated with
sleeping quarters at the police sta
ton for several nights.
Thursday afternoon he went to
the lodging house and talked queerly
with the landlady, but went to his
room, and was found a few hours
later in his bath room with his
throat cut from ear to ear.
He had no relatives in this cOun-
try, and was buried yesterday morn
ing from the BOwes & Randolph un-
dertaking parlors under the auspices
of the Sailors union, Rev. Chas.
McDermoth officiating.

"HoW Baxter Butted in"

Farce comedy is always relished by
playgoers when given that zest that
is possible with a good plot and ca
pable company of players. Both
these requisites are combined in
How Baxter Butted In," which is
one of the most enjoyable plays in
the repertoire of the Girton company,
which is to appear at the Grand
theater in How Baxter Butted In, -
next Thursday night. THY play
made a decided hit when given at the
so that the Girton company was re-
quested to repeat the performance
and gave it as their farewell to a
large and delighted Tacoma audience
last Sunday, matinee and night.
Baxter" the hero of the play, is a
ubiquitous individual who always
butts in" just at the right time.
There is a plot to marry off village
girl to the villain, which is thwarted
by Baxter" who butts in" just
when it looks as though villainy is
about to triumph over right. The
leads in this splendid farce comedy
are carried by Whit Brandon and
Miss Ether Tucker. A. r. Brooks, a
comedian of rare talent, fairly revels
in the fun. William Marion is the
villain, and this clever player will
make a hit with any appreciative
audience. Miss Iva Shepard is the
ingenue, and Miss Marian Dunn does
character parts. George Stanley does
utility roles. The Girton company is
recognized as one of the strongest on
the Pacific coast.

STRANGE MENTAL CASE.
Ernest Fisher Arrives in Town in
Dazed Condition, Not Knowing
From Where.

Ernest Fisher is at the police sta
tion in most peculiar position. Ten
or twelve days of his life is blank
and how he came to be in Aberdeen
| is a complete mystery to him.
Shortly after midnight Friday
morning he appeared at the police
station for shelter. He appeared to
be a man of above average intelli-
gence and showed no signs of liquor,
but had evidently been out in the
weather and Travelled some distance
afoot This was shown by his wet
garments and the worn appearance
of his shoes He was taken in by
Sergeant Searles and put to bed,
with the expectation that he would
be able to explain his condition in
the morning.
Saturday morning, when question
ed, he had no idea where he was, nor
of his own identity. His mind was
a blank. On his person was a bag
gage check from Tacoma to Olympia,
and upon this Chief Birmingham pro-
ceeded to discover the identity of the
man.
Saturday evening his grip came
from Olympia, and revealed that his
name was Ernest Fisher. He is be-
tween 35 and 40 years of age, and
is evidently a carpenter and archi-
tect judging by the papers in his va
lise. He was carefully attended at
the police station, and is gradually
recovering his mind, at least suffi-
ciently to give his identity.
In conversation with him this
morning, Fisher said his last recol-
lection was at a High school track
meet at Chico, Cal, on May q From
that time to yesterday his mind is a
blank. Taken altogether, it is be-
lieved that Fisher became victim of
mental alteration at Chico and, not
knowing whittier, he came to Ia
coma. His grip was checked from
Tacoma to Olympia, but of the cir
cumstance he has no recollection.
His memory, so far as it has come to
him, is that he should have had about
$102 at Chico, SO that a theory of
drugging for purpose of robbery is
not to be credited.
Fisher is a man of good education,
and every appearance of brightness; /;
is evidently a person of considerable
culture, and his present condition is
a most trying one. 1t is pitiful to
talk with him in his effort to recall
who he is, and by what means he was
brought here.

Geo. J. VOLTS Idea.

A splendid idea has been advanced
by Mr.. Wolff and that is when the
Aberdeen folks are going out to meet
the fleet Mayor France, in the name
of the city of Aberdeen, should pre-
sent each of the warships with lit
tie cub bear. There are quite num-
ber of little Teddies in Aberdeen at
present and the sailor boys would
surely appreciate Teddy mascot.
Not alone the entire nation, but the
world is keeping posted on the move
ment of the fleet and it is believed
this would be telegraphed all over
and this city would get the greatest
advertisement ever received.
An offer has been made to the
chamber of commerce to furnish six
teen cub bears for $100, which will
probably be accepted if arrangements
can be made to have them received on
board one of the battleships.

this country, not even excepting the
famous dairying sections in Iowa and
Minnesota. The soil is black and
rich. The first cost of the land is
small. Most of the logged-off land

about $50 or $50 to get the stumps

"Dairying in this section of the
state is pursued along the most mod
ern lines. Dairymen are improving
their herds by proper breeding and
nearly every one is increasing their
herds. Dairying has been very profit
able in that section and promises to
be more so as the population in the
Northwest increases. Butter fat has
advanced this week about y cents,
| which is something unheard of at
this time of the year. Generally
speaking, 1 find that many of these
| dairymen prefer to ship their prod
ucts to Seattle, but in the past their
patronage has not been cultivated by
Seattle firms. The butter fat and
| cream from this section has been 60
ing to Portland, where there has been
practically no competition. Butter
manufacturers have very largely Sc
cured the dairy products at their own
figures.
Competition for the products in
this and neighboring sections, how
ever, has now had the effect of fore
ing the price of butter and butter fat
up in Portland. Heretofore, Portland
prices have, during the summer
months, invariably been about two
cents below the Seattle market. This
year, owing to the competition which
the Oregon buttermakers are eXpe-
riencing, prices are higher and at
present are on a par with those in
MS market.
Il do not believe there is a land
anywhere in the United States so well
adapted to dairying as all that terri
tory south of the Grays harbor, all
the way through to the Columbia
river. When logged off and cleared it
is very much like the White river
valley and just as fertile. Hundreds
of acres of logged-Off lands are now
being cleared down there and sown
to grass for dairying purposes
