MACHINE GROUND PAINT.

Occasionally one hears the "hand-
mixed" paint Of the painter slight
ingly spoken of as "unscientific" and
mot thoroughly mixed" The facts
are all on the side of the painter and
his hand-prepared paint.
1t is the most scientific" paint
there Is, because it is made on the
spot to suit the particular purpose
for which it is to be used. 1t is as
scientific as good doctors prescrip-
ton. If the painter did not mix it
thus 1t would be as unscientific as a
patent medicine. Moreover the paint
which a good painter turns out is
made of genuine white lead and pure
linseed oil. II he does not mix it HIM
self he Is not sure what is in 1t and
consequently his client cannot be sure.
AS for not being thoroughly mixed
by machinery, that is simply a mis-
statement. White Lead as made by
National Lead Company is thoroughly
incorporated with or per cent. of
pure Lfnseed oil in the factory, max
ing paste. This paste need only be
thinned with additional linseed ell to
make it ready for the brush.
The thorough incorporation of pig
ment and oil has already been accom-
plished before the painter gets 1t.
To know how to tell pure white
lead Is a great advantage to both
painter and HORSEPOWER. National
Lead Company will send tester free
to anyone interested. Address the
company at Woodbridge Building,
New York, N. Y.

LOST $500
Buying Medicine when Right Food
was Needed.

Money spent for TONES" and
DTacers" to relieve Indigestion.
while the poor old stomach is loaded
with pastry and pork, is worse than
losing a pocketbook containing the
money.
If the money only is lost it's bad
enough, but with lost health from
wrong eating, it is hard to make the
money back.
A Michigan young lady lost money
on drugs but is thankful she found
a way to get back her health by prop
er food. She writes:
Il had been a victim of nervous
dyspepsia for six years and spent
three hundred dollars for treatment
in the attempt to get well. None of
it did me any good.
FINALLY l tried Grape-Nuts food,
and the results were such that, if it
cost a dollar a package, l would not
be without it. My trouble had been
caused by eating rich food such as
pastry and pork.
THE most wonderful thing that
ever happened to me, | am sure, was
the change in my condition after
began to eat GraDe-Nuts. l began
to improve at once and the frs week
gained four pounds.
81 feel that l cannot express my
self in terms that are worthy of the
benefit Grape-Nuts has brought to
me, and you are perfectly free to
publish this letter if it will send
some poor sufferer relief, such as has
come to me-"

BORAX, NATURES DISINFECT.
|, ANT, CLEANSER AND PURIFIER.

Everybody realizes the necessity of
some method of publication of sinks,
drains and utensils in which may Turk
the germ of dreaded disease.
Health is a question of cleanliness
and prevention.
Most people are familiar with the
use of disinfectants in their ordinary
sense-all of which are unpleasantly
associated with disagreeable odors,
on which are depended to kill the
contagion (Which disinfectants must
of necessity be of more or less dan
gerous character) and must be used
for this purpose and for no other, and
in consequence kept from children
and careless handling.
There is, however, within the reach
of all our readers a simple, safe and
economical article that will not only
answer for every disinfecting purpose
but can also be used for a multi
tude of domestic cleansing and puri-
flying purposes-Borax.
Borax is a pure, white harmless
powder coming direct from Natures
laboratory; in fact Borax has often
been called Natures Cleanser and
Disinfectant."
Two tablespoonfuls of Borax in a
pailful of hot water poured down the
grease-choked pipes of a sink, or
flushed through disease-laden drain,
cleanses and purifics it, leaving it
clean and sweet.
Bed clothing and clothes used in a
sick room can be made hygienically
clean and snowy-white, if washed in
a hot solution of BoraX water.
Kitchen and eating utensils, used
during illness will be kept from all
possibility of contagion if Borax is
used when washing them. Pure as
snow and harmless as salt, and be-
cause it can be used for almost every
domestic and medical purpose, Borax
must be considered the one great
household necessity.

WOMAN BRAVES FROZEN NORTH


After a trip of 100 miles through
the unknown northland, Mrs. Beech
has arrived in Winnipeg witt her hus-
band and son, none the worse for
the trip, which was the longest ever
undertaken by white woman under
similar conditions With eighteen
dogs they left their homestead north
of the Churchill River on December
10, the trip occupying a little more
than three months. Their adventures
and the privations they suffered
were far worse than they had ex-
pected.
Mrs. Beech is more than fifty-five
years old, and the trip was made
against the advice of traders in the
Far North. She arrived, however. in
excellent health, and as soon as spring
opens up the district will be ready
and willing to return to the home
stead, but will make the journey by
canoe instead of dog sled. For the
first week the snow was in first-class
condition for fast time and they
reached the Nelson River on the sew
enth day out. They found the river
flowing, however, and crossing i'm
possible. Food was scarce, and after
twenty-three days in which they were
close to starvation they were able to
cross the river and obtain supplies
from the Hudson Bay post. How
ever, supplies were low at York Fac
tory, and they were unable to obtain
many of what generally are regarded
as the necessaries of life.
For forty-fve days Beech and his
wife and their son were continuously
on snow-shoes. The worst experience

Civilization.

A commotion was caused in the
Boulevard Haussmann the other day
when one of the best known women
in Paris got out of an elegant motor
car leading by silver chain tiny
poodle dressed in the height of fash
ion. The dog was wearing a pigskin
collar adorned with gold coins and a
little fur coat with side pocket,
from which peeped small lace hand
kerchief, while its little feet were
protected from the damp by india
rubber shoes. In the poodle's ears
were two pairs of diamond earrings,
one pair in each ear, the ears being
pierced at the base and at the tip.
The feelings of this darling pet were
dogfully repressed. He appeared alb

How Machinery Multiplies Power.

The forthcoming report of the
United States Commissioner of Labor
will afford some interesting informa
ton on this topic. Aided by machin-
cry, 4,5OO,OOO men turn out prod
uct which would require the labor
OF nearly 100000 men if pro-
duced by hand. In America the ad-
vantage derived from machinery is
about twice as great as Europe, so
that the actual population Of the
United States is equal in productive
power to 150,00O,000 Europeans
With labor-saving machinery, one
generation of men can do the work
of four or five generations of hand
workers.
