SAVING PAINT MONEY
1t Cannot Be Done by Using Cheap
Material and Cheap Painters.

In arranging for painting. n good
many property-owners try to save
money by employing the painter who
offers to do the job cheapest-or try
to save money by insisting on a low
priced paint. But no property-owner
would run such risks If he realized
what must be taken into considera-
ton in order to get job that will
wear and give thorough satisfaction.
No houseowner will go wrong on
the painting question If he writes Ma

Constantinople.-T committee OF
union and progress has given convinc-
ing proof of its power and influence
over the third army corps. Two mill
tary trains, each containing 800 in
fantry, arrived Saturday morning at
Tchatalje, about seventy-five miles
from the capital and four other trains
are expected to reach that point with
In the next twenty-four hours. Prep
arations also are being made at Sa-
loniki for the dispatch of number OF
additional trains for Constantinople.
A circular telegram has been re-
ceived at the foreign embassies from
Gen. Husni Pasha, commanding the
Saloniki army, in which he says:
II have the honor to inform you re-
spectfully that the object of the army
corps in marching on Constantinople
is merely for the re-establishment of
the constitution, which is sacred to all
true Ottomans, and the legal punish
ment of the cursed authors of the
sanguinary disorders, by the reaction
of which humanity has always suf-
fered. Be certain, eXCellency, that the
lives and property of foreigners. the
honored guests of our dear fatherland,
will be safeguarded and that tranquil
ity and security will be assured the en-
tire population"
The Saloniki branch of the commit
tee of union and progress has ad.
dressed 4 strong worded telegram to
the Sultan. practically imputing to him

constitution Many battalions of the
garrison at Constantinoplc, it is stated,
are showing repentance at their recent
acts. They now declare that they were
misled into believing that the Sherri
laws and the constitution were in dan
ger. This is regarded as hopeful
sign.
Confirmation has been received here
of the killing at Adana of two Amer
ican missionaries, Mr.. Rogers and Mr..
Maurer. The others connected with
the missions are safe, including Mr..
Charistie, who is at Tarsus.
Three French warships are hurryinG
to Mersina, where the situation is des-
perate. Foreigners and many Chris
tians have taken refuge in the con-
sulates. The local troops and the gov
ernor are doing their best to protect
the town, but there is great fear that
it cannot hold out much longer against
the invasion of the Moslems, who are
sweeping down in large numbers. The
American vice consul at Mersina, John
Debbas, has been unable to proceed to
Adana, owing to the interruption Of
communications.
A British warship is proceeding to
Alexandretta, which is threatened by
the Moslems. Several Armenian farms
in that neighborhood have heeu de-
stroyed.
The tension in Constantinople over
the situation still is very great. The
people of the capital are more con-
cerned with the advance of Saloniki
troops than they are with the mas
sacres reported from various quarters.

PLANTING OF TREES.

There are number of reasons why
fall planting of trees and vines is
best. First, nearly a years growth is
attained in excess Of that which
would result were the planting de-
ferred until the following spring.
Second, trees can be purchased cheap
er in fall than in spring. Third, a
better assortment of varieties can be
secured, as we'll as better grade OF
trees, as in the fall large nursery
blocks are unbroken. Fourth, nur-
serymen have more time and can give
better and more prompt attention.
Fifth. there is more time to plant in
the fall than spring, and generally the
soil is in better condition for plant
