Obituary.

Captain Lewis Jones was born
in Brookville, York county,
Canada, September g. 1888. and
died April II, 1908, at ) a. m. at
the home of John H. Clark, his
soninlaw. Is miles northeast of
Wa-Keeney. Death came to him
after much suffering, although
pneumonia was the immediate
cause Only a few years ago the
writer was told by the captain
himself how he had been troubled
regularly since the war of the
Rebellion with headache, due to
bullet wound on the head.
F'aithfulnesS had stamped the
service that this man gave upon
the field of battle to his country.
For five long years he met the
test. First it was with the in
fantry, while latterly he took his
part with the 4th Wisconsin cav
airy. And war is hell" is their
plain statement. Now another
of the survivors has fallen.
Still war in this case has not
been left without a sacrament of
hope. A home was started. AS
the battlefield is soon grown over
with green and we are relieved
of its awful sight, so with life.
The captain was joined in mar
riage October Is, 1868, at Jeffer-
son, Wis, to Miss Susan J. Es-
selstyes. She has gone before,
but to this union three children
were born, one son and two
daughters survive him.
The funeral was held Monday
of this week. After a brief home
service, j. @. Everett, of the Wa
Keeney Presbyterian church,
had charge of the church service,
beginning at 2 p. m. The G. A.
R. Pest ofHciated at the grave.
Again, the entire community
joins in another sad bereave-
ment.

Letter to Mr.. Harry Gedrhdrt,
Wd-keeney. kans.

Dear Sir: You'd strike it rich
if you could find a way to shave
your customers in less time, for
less cost, and make the shave
last twice or three times as long.
You wouldn't shave the same
person so many times, or get so
much of his money, but the
whole town would be talking
about you, and everybody would
come to you for shave.
Devoe lead and-zinc is exactly
that in paints. It takes fewer
gallons and it wears longer.
Costs less for the job, and you
don't have to do it again for
years and years-six years at
least.
Fewer gallons; wears longer
Takes fewer gallons to paint a
house with Devoe lead-and-zinc
than with mixed paints; and it
wears longer than mixed paints
or lead and oil.
Yours truly,
