WHAT WIFE SAYS 4GoEs.,
But It Sometimes is Bad for the
Painting.

When a property-owner knows moth
ing about paint it is bad for the
property-owner, and bad for the paint
err. 1t would not be so if the property
owner would always hire a 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 commu-
nifty has some of the most incompetent
competitors that eve vexed a consci-
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
vestigating 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 a month" the
wife says, and what wife says goes
at the cost Of a lot of wasted painting
money.
If the painter stays away a 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 a 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
Owners Painting Outfit No. 40. Adj
dress National Lead Co., 1902 Trinity
Bldg, New York City. This company
do not make paint (they leave that to
the painter to do) but they make
pure white lead ("Dutch Boy Painter"
trademark kind, and they can tell
you how to save money by securing
durable painting.

Provide for Defects.

To prevent the practice by which
goods imported are not assessed at
their full value, the committee has in
corporated a provision which will
make it possible for the appraiser to
base the value On articles according
to the wholesale market prices here in
connection with the wholesale price
at the point of production abroad. The
provision states that in the absence of
evidence regarding the wholesale
price in the foreign country in which
the article is manufactured the APP
praisers may assess the ad valorem
duty on a price which shall not be less
than the wholesale price in this
country, less the cost Of tr%ansporta-
ton. This provision is in the nature
of a compromise to those interested
that sought to have all ad valorem
duties assessed entirely according to
the wholesale market prices in this
country.
