SAVING PAINT MONEY
II Cannot Be Done by Using Cheap
Material and Cheap Painters.

In arranging for painting, good
many property-owners try to save
money by employing the painter who
offers to do the job cheapest-or try
to save money by insisting on low
priced paint. But no property-owner

ton in order to get job that will
wear and give thorough satisfaction.

The Public Pays the Freight.

Expressed in terms of value, the enormous drain for lumber, which uses up more than half of the entire re- maining supply, merely staggers belief. But put it on your bill as sashes, doors, blinds, floors, roofs, stairway-railings ornamental house-fittings, office and store fixtures-the thousand and one items you pay for either through your landlord or direct to your builder; then add the item for shingles and laths, which amounts in the aggregate to some thirty millions year; is it diffi- cult to see why, with an average in- crease of twenty to fifty per cent in the cost of the raw materials for these products, your rent and house-building cost more, by just so much, than they did ten, or even five years ago, exclu- sive of labor?-Success Magazine.

Stand beside the imperial custom house at Canton and let the eye range down the river toward HongRong. As far as the sight can reach lie boats, beats, and again boats. These are no ordinary craft, mere vessels of trans port plying hither and thither, but the countless homes of myriad Chinese, in which millions have been born, lived and died. They are the dwelling of the very poor, who live in them practi- cally free from rent, taxes and other burdens of the ordinary citizen.
 The Tankia (which means boat dwell ers), as the denizens of these floating houses are called. form a sort of caste apart from the rest of the Cantonese The shore dwellers regard them as be longing to a lower social order, and in. deed they have many customs peculiar to themselves which mark them as a separate community. How the swarm ing masses of them contrive to support existence is a mystery, but their chief mode of employment is in carrying merchandise and passengers from place to place.-London Lady's Realm.

AIuxkrats for Meat.

Of all animals that supply meat to man the muskrat has been the most abused and the least understood, says the Baltimore Star. Its name had bred in the public mind a prejudice that has been almost unconquerable, but truth will prevail in spite of fate. As a fact the muskrat is one of the neat est and most delightful of animals. It is crank in cleanliness. It dimes with the care of an epicure. It eats only the whitest and tenderest morsels. And its flesh has qualities that can be compared only to terrapin. Indeed, there are good people along the Chesa- peake. where all the best things live and grow, who find in the well served muskrat satisfaction that is equal to the diamond back. Only the ignorant and the prejudiced think differently, and they may be educated.

We Can Learn from Our Children.

We Can Learn from Our Children.
 Treat the child more as an equal not as a hopeless inferior. There isn't so much need of coming down to his level as of giving him an op- cortunity to come up to yours-which will not require such a frightful ef- fort on his part as you sometimes i'm agine. If you can get a child to rec ognize and treat you as his equal, con tinues Woods Hutchinson. writing for Success Magazine you will have gained the highest possible position of influence over him and earned the best and sincerest compliment ever paid you. We dwell greatly upon what parents teach their children, but we forget to record in equal detail on the opposite side of the ledger what our children teach us. It would be difficult to say on which side the balance would be found to fall. The child is not merely the ideal pupil, but also the greatest teacher in the world. The lessons that we learn from him, if we approach him with proper humili- ty, are the most valuable part of ouI education.
