MD you ever look up the meaning
of the words Price" and Cost?
We venture you'd be interested. even
surprised.
Price" originally meant not money, not CASH
but Reward, Praise, Worth In the days of
Caesar they called it s.Pretium.
Cost comes from the old Icelander word
"Koster, signifying to Choose to Test, to
Prove.
So price is really the Worth of the thing sold.
"Cost'' means how well the thing bought proves
up in actual use.
SO we're far off the track today, for when you
buy paint the Price of it should be the of its
usefulness, in appearance and wear. Its Cost you
will be how well it stands the you put If it
does well, it's cheap; if not, you paid too much.
Measured by this poor paint far far than
good paint; worth the price asked and never
stands the test of wear.
There's house paint made that's worth the price
and stands the test, and that's HORSE SHOE.
BRAND HOUSE PAINT,-best lead, zinc, aged
linseed OIL japan, coloring matter and nothing else;
honest materials, honestly prepared, sold honor.
Seven gallons of HORSE SHOE PAINT covers
much surface as gallons of ordinary paint and
covers it longer.
Then, too, there's of good HORSE SHOE BRAND

MODERN GOWNS CENSORED.
Chicago, Oct. 3O.-(Special.) Harry
q. Smoot, superintendent Of the Juve-
nile Protective Association drew a hand
picture of the fashions destruction of
girls in his annual report which he
read in the presence of 500 interest
ed women in the rooms of the Chicago
Women's Clab.
Modern gowns he pronounced to
be potent causes of delinquency
among girls and young women who
have come within the scope of his
Investigations during the last year.
He suggested the appointment Of a
committee to wait upon the designers
of woman's wearing apparel and de-
mand a radical change Of fashion.
His attack upon the foolish fash
ions" of the day was uncompromising,
ana Gnere was no tremble of the ac-
cusing finger he pointed at the foibles
he holds responsible, in part, for the
necessity of the organization of
which he is the head.
4 silence which was painful be-
cause it was 50 apparent, was the
only applause which greeted his
declarations.
The vanity Of girls and young
women and tier desire to wear gar
ments cut in the extreme of fashion
is a frequent cause of their fall"
said Attorney Smoot. "A girl is con-
scious Of a pretty appearance and the
vanity leads to her acquaintance with
me and boys of whose existence she
would not learn otherwise. The sx-
IRENE fashions Of the day is among
the causes of Objectionable friendship
between young men aud women.

Burton. Robertson, Goldberg, Brown
and Condor spoke in the meeting.
Condor declared that the young people

gang TO prosper The other candi-
dates talked along similar lines.
In statement made by Inspector
C. NJ. Burton he declares that 'fads

In control have increased the school
expense by 100 per cent in 10 years

is that the people Of the United States
have grown so rich and prosperous, by
