WHAT THE TRADE MARK MEANS
TO THE BUYER

Few people realize the Importance
OF the words Trade Mark" stamped
on the goods they buy. II they did
1t would save them many dollar
spent for worthless goods and nut a
lot Of INSCRIPTIONS manufacturers
out Of the business. 0
When a manufacturer adopts 4
trade mark he assumes the entire re.
sponsibility for the merit Of his prod
uct. He takes his business repu-
ton In his hands--out in the lime
light--"on the square" with the buy.
or Of his goods, with the dealer. and
with himself.
The other manufacturer-the ona
who holds out inducements" Offer
ing to brand all goods purchased with
each local dealers brand ~ sidesteps
responsibility, and when these infe-
rior goods come back" it's the local
dealer that must pay the penalty.
A good example Of the kind of pro-
lection afforded the public by trade
mark is that offered in connection
with National Lead Company's adver.
Using of pure White Lead as the best
paint material.
That the Dutch Boy Painter trade
mark is an absolute guaranty Of puri-
ty in White Lead is proved to the
most skeptical by the offer. National
Lead Company make to send free to
any address a blow-pipe and instruc-
tions how to test the white lead for
themselves. The testing outfit is be-
ing sent out from the New York
office of the company, Woodbridge

. Western Christian Scientist, at one
Of her latest audiences, an anecdote
about friend Of hers.
This friend. thin and nervous

her physician and the man said:
do you eat anything just before
going to bed?"
"Oh, no. DOCTOR" the patient re-
piled.
We'll" said the physician. Just
keep pitcher of milk and some bis
cult beside you, and every night. the
last thing you do, make light meal"
But DOCTOR" cried the lady, you
told me on no account to eat anything
before retiring"
Pooh, pooh," said the doctor, that
was three months ago. Science has

Too Much Afraid Of Dirt.

It Is quite true that cleanliness is
next to goodness" but in this day of
fads and scientific friils the question
is whether we are not getting alto
gether too afraid of little dirt. Dirt
has been defined as matter in the
wrong place, and hygiene is the
science of keeping it in the right
place. But we are inclined to think
that we are all little bit too much

ness; little too afraid of coming in
