PAINT EVERY YEAR.
No One Wants to Do II, But Some
Paint viii Wear No Longer.

When you have job of painting
done you don't expect to have it done
over again very soon. But to make
lasting job, several things must be
taken into consideration-the proper
time to paint-the condition of the sur
face-the kind of materials to use, etc.
All these matters are fully covered in
the specifications which can be had free
by writing National Lead Company.

and a simple instrument for detecting

problems for every houseowner.
Meantime while buying paint see that
every white lead key bears the famous
Dutch Boy Painter trademark, which
is an absolute guarantee of purity and
quality. If your paint dealer cannot

A N EFFORT to limit tie volume OF
"A special pension legislation will be
made by Senator McCumber. chair
man of the committee on pensions
before the adjournment of the present
extra session of congress. Such legis-
lation has grown rapidly Until. during
the last congress, about 5000 bills. the
object of most of which was to in
crease existing pensions, were passed.
During the present session about
1000 bills providing for pensions not
obtainable under the general pension
laws have been introduced in the SEN
ate alone.
The reasons urged for such Iegis-
lation have been in the nature of ex-
ceptional conditions either relating to
the necessities of the applicant or to
a failure on his part to satisfy the
technicalities of the law, although he
could prove to the satisfaction of a
committee that he was entitled to
consideration.
But such legislation has grown SO
rapidly that either 1t must be limited
or the pension committees of the SEN
ATE and house will have to receive an
additional force, making them, in fact
pension bureaus of considerable size
To meet this condition, and to place
some limitation upon pension legisla-
tion. Senator McCumber proposes to
arrange joint meeting of the pension
committees of congress. when some
plan with this purpose in view will be

THE TWO SIDES OF HISTORY.
Some Pertinent Observations Made by
Writer Evidently Not Fond Of
Subject.

History is running account of how
King Somebody-or-other either did or
did not get to a certain place, which
nobody ever heard Of, before King
Somebody-else got there. from which
we are usually supposed to conclude
that 1t would have made quite a Differ
ence whether he did not not.
Like nearly everything else, history
has two sides. The history OF the
Garden of Eden depends upon wheth-
er 1t is related by man or a wom-
an. The history of the American rev.
olution reads quite different in Eng
lish books from the way 1t reads in
our own books. The history of the
civil war depends upon which side of
the Mason and Dixon line you happen
to be sitting when you write 1t.
History is a bore. not only because
you are unacquainted with the people
who figure in 1t, but because. it repeats
itself-I4ife.

When a person has used coffee for a

injustice to the great middle class of
people. He had to obey blindly.
The result has been that there are
an increasing number Of protests be-
ing filed against the change. The
White House always has been access
ible. The new concert ground is far
removed from car lines and there is
neither shade nor seats upon which
those who brave the long walk to the
river front may rest.
To those who possess automobiles
or carriages the place selected by
Mrs. Taft for future concerts Is ad-
mirable. Society and the official and
diplomatic sets can whirl In their mo-
tor cars and carriages and may appre-
ciate the change, but those music

fat will be compelled to trudge a
weary mile and a half beneath the
heat Of the summer sun, II they care

best musical organizations in the

The local newspapers are bonn

the innovation.
