WHAT WIFE SAYS "eoEs."
But 1t Sometimes Is Bad for the
Painting.

When a property-owner knows moth
ing about paint it is bad for the
property-o and bad for the paint
er. 1t would not be so if the property
owner would always hire skilled
painter, and then really leave every
thing to him. But the HORSEPOWER so
often fools himself on one or the other
of these things.
The skilled painter in every COM :
nifty has some of the most incompetent
competitors that ever vexed consct-
entious workman or contractor, and
the incompetents get jobs generally by
working cheap. In the next place,
when the skilled painter is hired, they
do not leave everything to him, as SO
many property-owners boast they do.
They interfere most ignorantly and
most fatally. They insist sometimes
on using paint materials without in
yestigating whether they are good or
not. Or perhaps they insist on the
painters hurrying the work.
I'm not going to have that painters
mess around my house month";" the
wife says, and what wife says goes
at the cost of a lot of wasted painting
money.
If the painter stays away few
days to allow the paint to thoroughly
dry the owner says: THAT painters
neglecting this work-guess he's side
tracking me for Jones work. l won't
stand it."
What chance does painterhave to do
good work for a man who is continually
nagging at him and otherwise handi-
Gaping him without meaning it, of
course)? A poor job is the inevitable
result of such interference.
Poor painting costs the houseowner
money-don't forget that. 1t might
pay you to get the practical paint
book, painting specifications and in
strument for detecting paint adul
terants, which National Lead Co. are
offering under the title of House

you how to save money by securing

MESSAGE OF

USES BUT FEW WORDS, AND
THOSE ARE DIRECTLY TO
THE POINT.
OPENING OF CONGRESS
VITAL INTERESTS OF COUNTRY
DEMAND THAT SESSION BE
DEVOTED TO TARIFF BILL.

Washington.-In brief and plain
ly-worded message to Congress Tues
day, President Taft told why he had
called the extra session, and urged
that its object, the revision of the tar
if, be accomplished as speedily as pos
sible
He suggested that in view of the I'M
certainty in business circles over the
matter, the Congress devote it's atten-
ton to the work of revision and do as
little as possible in the way of other
legislation, for the good of the coun-
try"
The reading of the message was the
chief business before the Senate The
message received careful attention and
the Senate adjourned TO Friday
When the message was read in the
House the Republicans broke out into
loud and prolonged applause. The
message was referred to the commit
tee on ways and means.
Following Is President Taft's Message.
ITO the Senate and House of Repre-
sentatives: | have convened this Con
gress in this extra session in order

sources of government revenue, does
not furnish income enough to pay the
authorized expenditures. BY July list

DIDN'T REALIZE
How Injurious Coffee Really Was.

Many persons go on drinking coffee
year after year without realizing that
1t is the cause of many obscure but
persistent ailments.
The ug-caffeine-in coffee and
tea, is very like uric acid and is often
the cause of rheumatic attacks which,
when coffee is used habitually, become
chronic.
A Washington lady said, recently:
Il am sixty-five and have had good
deal of experience with coffee. l con-
slider it very injurious and the cause
of many diseases. / am sure it causes
decay of teeth in children.
when l drank coffee l had sick
spells and still did not realize that
coffee could be so harmful, till about
a year ago l had rheumatism in my
arms and fingers, got so nervous
could not sleep, and was all run down.
'At last, after finding that medicines
did me no good, l decided to quit COT
fee entirely and try Postum. After
using it six months / fully recovered
my health beyond all expectations, can
