A GOOD COLD.
COMPLAINTS ABOUT PAINT.

The time to complain about paint
is before the painter applies it. The
man who puts up the money should
not shirk the responsibility of choos-
ing the paint. True, the painter
ought to know paint better than the
banker the professional man or the
merchant. The trouble is, the house
owner too often deliberately bars the
competent and honest painter from
the job by accepting bid which he
ought to know would make an honest
job impossible.
Secure your bids on the basis Of
National Lead Company's pure White
Lead and pure Linseed Oil and see
that you get these materials.
No one need be fooled by adulter-
ated white lead. A blowpipe testing
outfit will be mailed to anyone inter
ested in paint.

sURPRIsE SURELY A REAL ONE.
crowning Glory of an Evening in the
Life of Rev. Mr.. Brough.

Something had to be done. Rev. Mr.
Brough had been pastor of Hardens-
burg church for 25 years, and
the anniversary was to be properly
celebrated. Hardensburg was a small
place. The church was small and the
people were poor, but after much con-
sultation it was decided to give the
aged couple surprise donation party.
1t was a real donation party, with
barrel of flour, sack of yams, side
of bacon, ham and all the other lu'.
uries of Hardensburg life. And, as a
crowning feature, Deacon Rogers, who
had just introduced electric lights into
the village, had the parsonage wired
as a gift to the church, and agreed to
turn on the lights on the evening OF
the donation.
To make it all complete he left the
parson without knowledge that the
wiring was finished and installed a
switch on the outer wall by WIN III
every light in the house could be
thrown on at once. Then, in the dusk
of a hot autumn evening the members
of the Hardensburg church brought
their gifts to the minister's door
The parsonage was dark. Not ev IN
candle glimmered from the window.
Parson Brough and his wife had the
good habit of sitting quietly in the
dark on such evenings, resting their
eyes and discussing the affairs of the
day.
Cautiously, quietly, the supplies
were carried to the foot of the front
steps; quietly the parishioners were
arranged in semi-circle in front OF
the parlor windows, and then, in the
darkness, Deacon Rogers swiftly tip
toed up to the switch, and with a
quick turn threw on every light in the
house
The surprise was a grand success.
From the parsons sitting-room came
quick gasp and an exclamation of dis
may. The callers, waiting outside,
had a glimpse of two well-known
forms scurrying away through the
glaring light, from room to roomr
vainly seeking place of retreat. And
in the parlor, beside two still rocking
easy chairs, stood four battered shoes
and two pairs of neatly -darned stock
ings Rev. Mr. Brough had been COM
pletely surprised.

Great Men Not Arithmeticians.

In recent trial a San Francisco
fudge made arithmetic a test of mental
soundness. But if this test had been
applied to certain great men they
would have been declared imbeciles
Dean Stanley, eminent author and di-
vine, for one, would have been set
down as hopeless had he been judged
by his incapacity to do a sum in simple
addition or multiplication. Had Keble,
writer of famous hymns, depended
upon his arithmetic Oxford would not
long have known him. When bursar
he found, to his horror, that certain ac-
counts came out nearly $4,000 to
the bad. In vain did the learned and
pious men of the college go over the
figures with him. Not until an expert
Was summoned was it discovered that
Keble, in casting up a column, had
added the date of the year to the col
lege's debts.

BOY KEPT SCRATCHING.
Eczema Lasted 7 Years-Face Was All
Raw-Skin Specialists Failed, But
Cuticura Effected Cure.

when my little boy was six weeks
old an eruption broke out on his face.
l took him to a doctor, but his face
kept on getting worse until it got so
bad that no one could look at him.
His whole face was one crust and
must have been very painful. He
scratched day and night until his face
was raw. Then | took him to all the
best specialists in skin diseases but
they could not do much for him. The
eczema got on his arms and legs and
we could not get a nights sleep in
months. I got a set of Cuticura Rene
dies and he felt relieved the first time
l used them. 1 gave the Cuticura
Remedies a good trial and gradually
the eczema healed all up. He is now
seven years old and I think the trou-
bic will never return. Mrs. John G.

DESERVED TO WIN HIS CASE.
Really Able Argument Put Forward
by Accused Sailor.

A very good story has recently been
told in the fleet of an incident which
happened when Admiral Evans was In
command of the Indiana. An old-time
bluejacket was at the mast before
Capt. Evans, charged with getting
food out of a mess chest outside OF
meal hours. This getting OF food for
night watches is common and strong
desire on the part of most men aboard
ship.
Capt. Evans asked the man what he
had to say; and the man, sizing up
the delicate situation, said:
Captain, didn't take no food outer
that chest. Why, captain, there
weren't no food in that chest!
looked in that chest, and, captain, l
met a cockroach coming out OF that
chest with tears in his eyes."-Har-

Economical Physician.

Ambassador WI Ting-fang was
once, it is alleged, telling about a GER
tain selfish politician. He said: The
man reminds me of doctor of Shang-
hal. A mandarin came to this doctor
for advice. He could not sleep, had
no appetite, suffered a good deal from
depression and nevertheless was TAX
ing on fat at an alarming rate. Well
soon put you in condition again. said
the physician. What you need is ex-
ercise, good, hard exercise. -Four
times a week you can come here and
put in the morning polishing my
floors But why not my own fioors?'
the mandarin inquired. Nine said
the physician, are larger"

To Catch Cockroaches.

A florist has discovered by accident
a new way to catch cockroaches. A
pint fruit jar containing a scrap OF
bacon happened to be left over night
in one of his greenhouses. Next morn.
ing a dozen or more cockroaches were
vainly trying to climb the slippery
sides of the glass jar. The florist has
succeeded in ridding his establishment
of these repulsive creatures, which
formerly ate such high priced plants
as orchids and gardenias.
1t is necessary to paste a piece OF
paper on the outside of the jar SO
that the insects can get sufficient foot
hold to climb up into the trap. In the
original case the label of the manu-.
facturer supplied this need.

CHANGE IN FOOD
Works Wonders in Health.

It is worth knowing that change
in food can cure dyspepsia. Il deem
it my duty to let you know how Grape
Nuts food has cured me of indigestion.
Il had been troubled with it for
years, until last year my doctor recon-
mended Grape-Nuts food to be used
every morning. 1 followed instruc-
tons and now I am entirely we'll
THE whole family like Grape-Nuts,
we use four packages a week. You
are welcome to use this testimonial
as you see ft.''
The reason this lady was helped by
the use of Grape-Nuts food, is that it
is predigested by natural processes
and therefore does not tax the stom-
ach as the food she had been using;
it also contains the elements required
for building up the nervous system.
If that part of the human body is in
perfect working order, there can be no
dyspepsia, for nervous energy repre-
sents the steam that drives the engine.
When the nervous system is run
down, the machinery of the body
works badly. Grape-Nuts food can be
used by small children as well as
adults. 1t is perfectly cooked and
ready for instant use.

With Eddie Foy," said tragedian,

You Would Not Accept Counterfeit
Money, Why Accept Counterfeit
Goods2

Good money is made by the Govern
ment in which you have implicit faith
and confidence. Good goods are made
by manufacturers who are willing to
stake their regulations on the quality
Of the material offered to you through
the medium of their advertisements in
this paper. Counterfeit goods are not
advertised The reason for it is they
will not bear the close scrutiny to
which genuine advertised goods are
subjected. Counterfeit money pays
more profit to the counterfeiter. Coun-
terfeit goods are offered to you for the
same reason.
Insist on the Genuine-Reject the
Counterfeit.
