Dear Sir: If you could get the exclu-
sive sale Of coal that would give dou-
bic heat and cost no more, you'd jump
at it, wouldn't you?
You'd control the trade for a hundred
miles
Devoe is like that among paints
short ton is as good as long one Of
any paint you can name; a gallow IS
worth more than two of many popular
paint.
Suppose you have painted your house
about once in three years ever since it
was new; you buy the same number of
gallons Devoe, have a third of it left,
and it lasts six years. Count your costs.
$I75 a gallon for paint; $3.50 a gal
Ion for putting it on; you saved 5 gal
Ions: $26.25 for this job. But you save
the whole job of three years hence:
about SIS. Put EN- together, $Ioo.
Can't reckon so accurately as that
But you see how it goes. Paint isn't
alike any more than coal How much
more is coal worth than IA slate2
Yours truly,
F. w. DEVOE & co.
Henry Kissell, Jr., CIiffside, sells our
paint.

OF SPECIAL INTEREST TO
WOMAN.

1t is doubtful if any other newspaper
in the United States offers so much that
is of interest to women and of value in
the home as does The Chicago Record
Herald. In the daily issues are to be
found daily pattern suitable for home
dressmaking, the daily bill of fare,
chatty society news and Nine. Qui
Wives daily feature of answers upon
beauty topics. On Monday appears
"Martha's Management" devoted to
household and culinary topics, while
short, light reading for the whole family
is always found on the editorial page.
On Friday appears DR.. Withrow's COM
ment on the Sunday school lesson, and
through the week will be found crisp
reviews of the new books. In the Sun
day issue a complete section is devoted
to women, containing Nine. Qui Wives
beauty page, ''Hints for the Home
Dressmaker' by Jeanette Hope, Marion
Harland's page, Dame Curtsey's 'Novel-
ties in Entertainment, society news
and many special articles of interest to
women. The Sunday Magazine of The
Record Herald is full of good stories,
interesting articles on timely topics,
clever verse, wit, humor and miscel-
lany, with many beautiful illustrations.
1t has the real magazine flavor.

EASY METHODS.

The following written by Larry Nolen,
of Rhinelander, to the Milwaukee Even
ing Wisconsin, may be of benefit to
some of our rural readers:
ut may be of interest to your readers
to know that stumps can be removed
from land at a cost of cents cash and
five minutes labor per stump
"The method which | disco erred last
April is as follows: With 2-inch
auger, bore hole perpendic Early into
the stump about two feet. Pour into
this hole one pint of a mixtul of equal
parts of nitric and sulphufic acids.
Then plug the hole tightly with plug
dipped in melted paraffine. In thirty
days time, stumps so treated will be a
charred, pulpy mass-roots and all
and may be spread over the soil as q
fertilizer with a shovel. / have just
stumped sixteen acres of new land in
my Newbold farm, nine miles from

FAIR AT STEVENS POINT.

The Stevens Point fair will be held
next week, and from all indications,
promises to be the best in the history
OF that city. In fact the management
positively guarantees it will be second
to none in the state. A fine racing pro-
gram has been arranged for the 9th.
10th and 18th, new buildings are being
erected, the most successful breeders of
live stock in the state, have already
made extensive entries, and the finest
of special free attractions have been en-
gagged. The special free attractions are
again in the state fair class, among
them being Fearlesso, who loops the
loop without loop, on bicycle, the
most thrilling act of tne season, and
the Araki Japs, the best troupe of
japanese athletes before the American
people. Everything has been done to
make every minute of the time profit
able and entertaining, and it is ex-
pected that many of our people will
attend.

MANY, REGISTERED.

The registration last Tuesday, under
the primary election law, was the larg-
est ever recorded in the city the total
being over 1890. The total vote in the
city for governor two years ago was
but 1855. The last school census,
which included complete census OF
the city, taken in July, was 1894.
The registration of last Tuesday would
indicate that there is one voter among
less than four persons figured in our
population. This is undoubtedly not
correct. In printing number of
registration notices for the city last
week, the PILOT noticed that some per-
sons are registered in number of
wards. There are also some dead men
on the list, some in the state prison and
a number who have moved away from
the city.
Today-primary election day-is
another registration day and again on
Tuesday Oct. 27, the voters will be
given chance to register. Today and
on the last date mentioned, voters must
appear in person to have their names
placed on the list.

CHINAMAN TO EXHIBIT.

Sam One Lung, the local Chinese
]aundryman, received a small consign-
of oriental goods last week from a
Chinese merchant in San Francisco.
The goods were manufactured in China
and represent great deal of patient
hand labor, and are therefore very
valuable. One of the articles is a keen
edged knife with handle and sheath
carved from an elephants tusk. A
small house with thatch roof, two
Cinnamon being seated on the floor, is
also carved of ivory and is unique, ex-
pensive and toilsome piece of work. A
lady's hand bag with two colored glass
rings for handles, the bag being covered
with gold tinsel work, is a very beauti-
full thing. He has an all silk shawl, very
expensive and handsome. Two table
spreads in the collection will catch the
eye of anyone. They are highly orna-
mented and the price of one was $50.
He also has some glass ornamental
work, which is very pretty. To appre-
ciate the value of these goods, attend
the Marathon county fair. The articles
will be on display there.

LONG TRIP FOR BOYS.

Tonight, weather permitting, mem.
bers of Co. G will assemble at the mar
ket square for the purpose of practicing
tent pitching. The company has re-
ceived from the state military author.
tiles large tent for the purpose, such
as is used by the regular army. IT is
the intention of thu commanding off
GERS of the Third regiment to make as
good showing as possible when the
regiment goes into camp next month
at Ft Benjamin Harrison, near Indian
apolis. Thousands of soldiers repre-
senting military organizations from
every section of the country will be
assembled there at that time. Co. G
will leave this city on the 10Th or Goth,
presumably on the first mentioned
date, for Chicago and from there to the
national military reserve, where the
balance of the month will be consumed
in training in military maneuvers. 1t
no doubt will prove the best thing
the militia companies have ever had in
the way of getting practical experience
in army life, for they will be under the
tutelage of regular army officers.

night, when all departed for their
homes pronouncing George a royal
entertainer.
