PAINT EVERY YEAR.
No One Wants to Do It, But Some
Paint Will 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
a 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,
1902 Trinity Building, New York,
and asking for Houseowners Paint
ing Outfit No. 40. The outfit also in
cludes a book of color schemes for
both interior and exterior painting,
and simple instrument for detecting
adulteration in the paint materials.
The outfit will solve many painting
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
supply you National Lead Company
will see that some one else will.

Sheer white goods, in fact, any fine
wash goods when new, owe much Of
their attractiveness to the way they
are laundered, this being done in a
manner to enhance their textile beau
ty. Home laundering would be equal
ly satisfactory if proper attention was
given to starching, the first essential
being good Starch, which has sufficient
strength to stiffen, without thickening
the goods. Try Defiance Starch and
you will be pleasantly surprised at the
improved appearance of your work.

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trou-
BILE can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of it's great
er strength than other makes.

A Mild Reproach!

One cold morning little Elsie was
being bathed by her mother, and usual
ly her bath was great delight to her.
But this morning her mother talked
necessarily, while she worked.
Elsie loved her dearly and tried hard
to be patient. But the lecture was SO
tiresome! Her mother was laying out
a course of conduct for the day-and
it was all so old She had heard it
over and over again!
Finally she said very sweetly, but
very YEARLY: please, mamma, don't
talk any more. You do make such a
draught!"
