OPEN DEALING IN PAINT.

Buying paint used to be like the
proverbial buying Of a pig in a
poke" Mixtures in which chalk,
ground rock, ETC., predominated were
marked and sold as Pure White
Lead" the deception not being ap-
parent until the paint and the paint
ing were paid for. This deception is
still practiced, but we have learned to
expose 1t easily.
National Lead Company, the larg-
est makers Of genuine Pure White
Lead, realizing the injustice that was
being done to both property owners
and honest paint manufacturers, set
about to make paint buying safe.
They first adopted trade mark, the
now famous "Dutch-Boy Painter and
put this trademark, as a guaranty Of
purity, on every package of their
White Lead. They then set about
familiarizing the public with the
blow-pipe test by which the purity
and genuineness Of White Lead may
be determined, and furnished a blow
pipe free to every one who would
write them for 1t. This action was in
itself guaranty Of the purity Of Ma
tional Lead Companys White Lead.
AS the result Of this open dealing
the paint buyer to-day has only him
self to blame IL he is defrauded. For
test outfit and valuable booklet on
painting, address National Lead Com
pany, Woodbridge Bldg, New York.

uncle allowed her to do pretty much as she pleased
with her boat. Her greatest danger, Lon knew lay
IN her fearlessness and ignorance of the faults of
her cranky craft
When the boy first caught sight of her. she was
SAILING TO leeWard, running before the wind as Lon
was. And, as usually happens with a cranky craft
Marion's boat was yawng badly, and threatening to
roll the boom under. He off to leeward of her
and then hailed her:
"Oh, Miss Marion, don't you think you are carrying
too much sail? It's blowing pretty fresh to-day. It's
coming harder every minute"
TOO much sail?" she shouted back across the wa
ter; mot for me- l couldn't go to windward with
out the spirit up If you don't look out I'll heat Won
to the start"
This was joke, for Lon was gradually drawing
away from her AS he neared the starting-point the
thought came into his head to, run alongside the
schooner and speak to the commodore of the danger
Marion was in. But just then the warrington for
his class sounded, and he went about hoisted the
Jib and began 'jockeying' for good position with
the four other dories that entered for the
race
The Wanderer stood away from the line for as near
two minutes as Lon could count. Then he went about
and ran down to the startingline with Bob Richards
Following his every move. The other three dories
were having battle between themselves on the op-
poste tack for their realized that they were
bound to take third place between them If Lon and
Bob stayed In the race. Much to Ions disgust as
he neared the line he he was ahead of time and
he had to jibe over and make tack away from it.
Bob just caught the gun-re at the proper time which
gave him the advantage at the start.

and out on the piazza. Lon felt pang of jealousy
toward Bob Richards when he saw him walk up the
aisle to receive the little purse that contained three
shining fve-doar gold pieces. Then the audience
started to move out of the room, but the commodore
raised his hand and asked every to wait

He lifted from the table red flannel bag from
which he drew another silver cup. Old yachtsmep
and those near the table recognized at the cup
which the commodores son (who had fallen in the
Spanish War; had won in holly contested race nine
years before.

Then he called out Come up here Lon, and the red
faced lad pushed lovingly by every hand that
could reach him up throughs the aisle to the
platform.
AS Lon took the cup, the kindly giver leaned down
and whispered, There's something inside it for you,
Lon" And while the crowd cheered and clapped and
stamped their feet until the walls echoed again. Lon
stumped away to show his prize to his mother At
the first electric light he stopped long enough to
what the something inside" was; and his astonished
gaze fell on a check for fifty dollars

throw the Arrow up in the wind thus losing head

steadily on her way, if Lon had to climb out to

race.
AS Lon out to the starting where the COM
modores schooner lay at anchor he was startled at
catching sight of Marion Darcy, the commodore's
niece out sailing alone in cranky little rowboat

Best Game of Season.

The best game of ball that has been
played here this season, all things con-
sidered, was the game between the
Reynoldsville and Punxsutawney teams
Monday afternoon. 1t was a fast and
interesting game from start to finish.
The game was good exhibition OF base
ball skill and there was not a jar or
jangle during the entire game, which
was played in one hour and forty min
utes. 1t was the kind of ball that log-
ers Of the sport enjoy. The score was
6 to in favor of the Reynoldsville team.
The battery for home team was Carney
and Gibson and for the visiting team
McGee and Smith.
The Punxsutawney Spirit in mention
ing the game said: Carney, who
pitched for the victors, allowed the
locals but three hits, while he succeed
ed In striking out fifteen of the Punxs'y
batsmen. McGee, who dished them up
for the Reynoldsville sluggers to swing
on, pitched good ball, but not qui te
good enough. The Reynoldsville con.
tingent played an errorless game while
the locals had four marks in that
column.

Important if True.

From an indirect source we have been
informed that in some future time the
B., r. & P. railway company will erect
large car shops near Cloe, where the
Indiana branch joins the main line. 1t
is thought that the shops at Dubois
will be transferred to that place. The

this theory, and If 1t is true, which in
