HOW TO APPLY PAINT.

Greatest care should be taken when painting buildings or implements which are exposed to the weather, to have the paint applied properly. No excellence of material can make up for carelessness of application, any more than care in applying 1t can make poor paint wear well.
 The surface to be painted should be dry and scraped and sandpapered hard and smooth.

BUY ONLY BEST ctlIcoHY.
Ask for the Franck Brand and Insist
 Upon Getting 1t.

All coffee drinkers should be familiar with the history and merits of chicory. As salt is necessary for soup, so coffee is incomplete without a proper propor- ton of genuine chicory, for 1t is chicory that gives coffee that rich flavor and fra grant aroma.
 Americans thanks to foreign-born resi- dents now appreciate the merits of chic ory The United States Government has interested itself in the root and recently issued a bulletin on the use and growth of chicory. (See Bulletin 19, U. $. De- partment of Agrculture)
 It also regards chicory as standard food product as coffee and requires the coffee makers to state the contents Of their packages in plain letters. This 1n- sures the purchaser pure coffee and genu- inc chicory.
 One chicory manufacturing firm, Heinr. Franck Sohne & Company, which has IS ceived forty medals for the excellence or it's product in its nearly century Of eX- istence, has established an American branch at Flushing, N. Y, where genu- inc Franck Chicory is made. From tms factory genuine chieory is supplied to all the leading jobbers of the south.
 You must ask for Franck Chicory in or der to get the best chicory Many in ferior brands are offered, but there is only one high grade chicory and it is the Franck Chieory.
 Make sure that the coffee you buy is mixed with "Franck'' chicory and insist on getting it. You will be assured of a cup of coffee rich in taste, fragrant Tn aroma and healthful in effect. You will then drink the coffee made famous by the good Dutch housewives-the same kind Served in all the leading hotels and res, taurants Accept only coffee prepared with 'Franck" Chicory-it is the best.

SKIN TROUBLES CURED.
First Had Itching Rash-Threatened Later With Blood-Poison in Leg
 Relied on Cuticura Remedies.

About twelve or fifteen years ago I had a breaking-out, and it itched, and stung so badly that I could not have any peace because of it. Three doctors did not help me. Then used some Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint- ment, and Cuticura Resolvent and began to get better right away. They cured me and have not been bothered with the itching since, to amount to anything. About two years ago I had la grippe and pneumonia which left me with pain in my side. Treat ment ran it into my leg, which then swelled and began to break out. The doctor was afraid it would turn to blood-poison. I used his medicine but it did no good, then I used the Cuticura Remedies three times and cured the breaking-out on my leg. J. F.
