SWEET MELODY FLouR.
LETTER TO Palace FUR. co.
CIarksburg, w. Va.

Dear Sirs: Paint goes by gallons.
There are useful and useless gallons.
Useful paint Is lead-zinz-and-oil with
dryer and color; useless paint Is
whiting china-clay. ground stone
barytes. benzine, or water.
This stun is put-in, because 1t IS
cheap. to stufr-out the paint. to make
moro gallons to sell. OF course the
buyer doesn't suspect, or he wouldn't
buy It.
II costs as much to brush on this
useless stun as lead-zinc-and-oil, but
looks like that and feels like that In
the brush: the painter doesn't sus-
pect IT. Besides. II the owner IS
willing. why should the painter OH
ject 10 painting two gallons for one?
He Is paid by the day; more gallons.
more days, more money.
Average paint at full price is about
one-third this useless stun: an aver
age paint at slips or $3.50 or $1.75
a gallon Is two-thIrds trash. Fool
nalnt Is the proper name for all but
pure paint; 1t Is made to fool peo-
pie with. KnaYe paint Is another
good name; it is made, of course. by
knavcs. Sick paint Is Il name for an
honest weak paint. They are all
weak and all eXtravagant: too many
gallons to buy and too many gallons
10 brush on. Devoe Is the standard.
Yours truly,
a L. w. DEVoE & co. |

LITTLE LESSONS IN JOURNALISM

Dear Children; We notice the iOl- lowing item in the last published issue of the Northern Light:
 'TtiSa mistake that Miss Helen Rus sell is going away on the Princess May"
 Now, children, real newspaper never prints au item like that unless it has to. The Light said iu 8 previous issue that Miss Russell was going away on the Princess May It is against all the rules of journalism to confess error. A newspaper never makes a mistake-if you place your faith in its confessions. Only when threatened with a gun or a libel suit will a newspaper resract. It is true that Mir. Hearst, who is a great and very clever uewspsperman, and one of vast ezperience-as one has to be to get

stand on pedescals till foreign mar rIages jar them down.

And unless she is content to trail; unless she, is satisfied to put by her sovereignty for a gilded vassalage and sometimes one that is merely pinchbeols, she is quite sure to be unhappy. N

War. The new invader pressed close behind
the German army corps in 1870, crossed the
Rhine, and has never been driven back.
This rodent, the hamster, is a stout little
animal about as big a large rat; but instead
OF d long, hairless tail 1t has a short furry one.
1t lives underground, and burrows long pas
sages which it stocks carefully with gram, etc
The providence of the hamster is the despair
of the farmer; for though the little creature
has a remarkably healthy appetite it slows
away even more than it eats in the garden.
Besides this, the hanster multples with
ominous rapidity. \ few years after the first
hamster has reached a district, the be-
comes a genuine nuisance.
Even vigorous measures have failed to eradl-
cate the pest In Germany bounty Of

The Revenue Cutter Service

A BOUT December the forty odd United
States revenue cutters begin their winter
cruise along the coasts. The term revenue
cutter gives an inadequate notion of the varied
duties of this most efficient service.
Revenue cutters are the hfesavers of the
seas. They patrol the coast regular beats,
looking for vessels in distress. They suppress
mutinies, smuggling. and illicit seal hunting.
examine ships papers, enforce quarantine regu-
lations supply lighthouses, and are in general
the police department, fire department, am
bulance corps, and messenger boys OF the sea
The service was formed at the instance of
Alexander Hamilton. during his administra-
ton of the Treasury Department. In 1901 ten
cutters were built and put in commission under
rules that Hamilton wrote. In time OF peace
the cutters are under the Treasury Depart
ment; but when breaks out they sub
ject to the authority OF the Navy Department.
From the War of 1917 to the Spanish American
War they have always done good work.
1t Is IN time OF peace that the cutters tight
their hardest battles. Every year they save
many lives and average OF three million
dollars worth Of property.
