Pangs Of sorrow were felt by more than
one gruff policeman yesterday when the
news of the death Of "Olyd Murtie" was
received. "Old Murtie" on the police rec
Ords was q common drunk But every
patrolman viii resent the charge Old
Murtie" was a most uncommon drunk.
Ed MuTtie'S life history Is inscribed sue
cinctly on the police station records and
on the police court files IN sentences of
sixty or ninety days, always the same
charge-a common drunk Yet. If there
is anything about such a record TO ad-
mire; if there be anything good about a
man whose only home for twenty years
has been a dTunkard's cot; II there be
anything in a drink-blighted career 10

he said with a smile, and with his last
breath sighed little Latin prayer, relic
of his early devotion.
And then he died.
The passing of Ed Murtie was some

tensbly a prisoner in The city jail though
Imprisonment had become so natural TO
him that the confinement was never
punishment. Then a bottle OF whisky, the
I cold stone floor of his cell and the chill
night air combined to bring about tIH

Letter to A. z. Cutler
bennington. Vt.

Dear Sir: The maker, who puts 2
or lbs of whiting barytes or clay in
a gallon of paint, saves $3.50 or 1925
for himself and makes you overpay
S25 on a $50 Job.
It takes IS gallons of his weak
paint--it is weak from that adulter-
alton and probably weak from ben
zine or water besides-it takes 10
gallons of that poor stuff to cover
lO-gallon job Devoe; it may take 90
Here's a case.
Judge /. d Fairchild owns two
houses, exactly alike, in Lufkin, Tex
as j. Nj. Terrence painted both
houses, one Devoe, 15lA gallons the
other with another paint sold at same
price, % gallons. That % gallon
paint is weak and 10 per cent whit
ing; that's why it took 9l5> gallons
more.
II costs so to 81 a gallon to paint
any paint, whether good or not. Add
this to the price, and the cost of your
job is IS gallon $75 or 500 for
trash; Devoe $50.
Paint that takes more gallons may
or may not be adulterated; there are
pure paints and 200 adulterated;
Devoe is the strongest of all; 1t takes
least gallons, makes the least bill, and
wears longest, of all.
You can overpay from 10 to 100
per cent; and the more you pay, the
worse your job. In paint, the rule is
least gallons, least cost, longest wear.
Yours truly
81 f. w. DEVOE & co.

walls so that they properly mix the
food with the natural digestive juices
of the stomach
Mi-o-na tablets quickly arouse the
stomach from its inaction and in a
few days il is able to do it's work
tasty and without exertion. There
will be no more sour stomach, fer.

HOMICIDE IN NEW ENGLAND
c. R. Saunders Quotes Census Figures
in Support Of Capital Punishment

Charles r. Saunders, in a recent in
terview at Boston in support of his
work for capital punishment, said that
Maine and Rhode Island, where CAPT
tai punishment does not exist, have
many more murders in proportion to
population than the other New Eng
land states where it is in force. He
quoted figures presented from the last
United States census and said:
Il am not aware of these official fig
ures ever being presented at the state
House at any hearing on the question
of capital punishment. They furnish
the conclusive, final proof that capital
punishment is the positive deterrent
of murder that we have asserted it
to be.
These figures should compel men,
bers of the legislature who intended
to support the bill allowing a jury to
add to its verdict in first degree MUIR
der cases the words without capital
punishment-which bill in practice
would absolutely abolish punishment
to reconsider their intention and
vote against it to save the people Of
Massachusetts from double the num-
Der of homicides which is sure to fol
low its enactment.
For years | have felt sure that the
number of murders in proportion to
population in Maine and Rhode Island
where capital punishment does not ex-
list, greatly exceeded the number in
the other New England states where
1t is in force. In the last census the
number of homicines in each state dur
ing the year ending May 81, 1900, is
given Massachusetts had 10, Maine
s, Rhode Island z.
''As Massachusetts by the same
census had four times the population
of Maine and 612 times the population
of Rhode Island, the number of homi-
cides for Maine and Rhode Island, on
( the basis of the population of Massa-
chusetts, figures out 80 for Maine and
46 for Rhode Island, as against only
10 for Massachusetts"
