WHAT WIFE SAYS "GoEs.~
But 1t Sometimes is Bad for the
Painting.

When property-owner knows moth
ing about paint it is bad for the
property owner, and bad for the paint
er. 1t would not be so if the property
owner would always hire q skilled
painter, and then really leave every
thing to him. But the house-owner 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 ever 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 lot of wasted painting
money.
If the painter stays away a few
days TO allow the paint 70 thoroughly
dry the owner says: THAT painters
ncglecting 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 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. Ad-
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.

WHAT 4 FORMER OREGON
FARMER THINKS OF West.
ERH CANADA.

Albert Nelson left Benton Co., Ore
gon, in Sept, 1904. for the great
Canadian prairies. To quote from his
letter: IL was greatly surprised to
find such an immense stretch Of rich
virgin prairie still almost unoccupied
in the very heart of North America.
The splendid crops of oats, wheat, bar
ley, potatoes and hay | beheld in the
settlements made me very eager for a
piece of this rich soil, and | soon To-
Gated in the Goose Lake country. We
have here a great stretch of the rich,
deep clay loan of the saskatchewan
a soil heavy and hard to break, but
particularly we'll adapted for the re-
tention of moisture and production Of
the bright No. 1 hard wheat, and
great crops of oats, barley, flax and po-
tatoes. l had so bushels of oats,
weighing AL lb. to the bushel, per
acre. Some of my neighbors had still
greater yields. Wheat yielded from 20
to 30 bushels per acre. We have all
done well here, and I could name
many Americans who came here with
means to go ahead, who have done
big already. For homesteads one has
to go further west, but the best prai-
rie can be bought here for from $1,000
to $1,000 per acre. The climate is
dry and healthy This is the regular
Saskatchewan fall weather - frosty
nights, and bright, sunny days-ideal
for threshing and hauling out Of
wheat. The trails are dusty, as thou
sands Of wheat teams are moving
towards the elevators.
"The sight of it makes one stop and
wonder what it will be in a few years
when the immense prairies get under
cultivation. Heavy snowfall is the
exception here. Snow generally falls
in December and goes off in March.
1t sometimes gets very cold, but the
Saskatchewan farmer does not fear
the cold Winter Is his season of
rest. The first or second crop he
builds a comfortable house for him
self, and warm stables for his horses.
He need not, like some, be poking
about in the mud all winter attending
few beasts for livelihood

Once there was an old woman who
lived in a shoe. She had SO many
children that at first she didn't know
what to do.
A friend of the family who hap
pened to come along just then, how.
ever. made the following suggestions:
To put one of them in factory
TO have couple more operated on
and otherwise fused over by the doc

To put a couple of them in a coal
mine.
To send one to a modern public
school.
To bring up another on pure food

Which no sooner having been car.
ried into effect than the old woman
settled down to life of ease and lone.

DIDN'T REALIZE
How Injurious Coffee Really Was.

Many persons go on drinking coffee
year after year without realizing that
it is the cause Of many obscure but
persistent ailments.
The ug-caffeine-in coffee and
tea, is very like uric acid and is often
the cause of rheumatic attacks which,
when coffee is used habtually, become
chronic.
A Washington lady said, recently:
i am siXty-five and have had good
deal of experience with coffee. l con-
slider 1T very injurious and the cause
of many diseases. l am sure it causes
decay of teeth in children.
When | drank coffee l had sick
spells and still did not realize that
coffee could be so harmful, till about
year ago l had rheumatism in my
arms and fingers, got so nervous
could not sleep, and was all run down.
AT last, after finding that medicines
did me no good, decided to quit cof-
fee entirely and try Postum. After
using it six months / fully recovered
my health beyond all expectations, can
sleep sound and my rheumatism is all
gone There's a Reason"

She smiled trustingly. "No, sir,

by his singular client.

Woodwork hurriedly thought of all
known legal processes, but neither

writ with which he was familiar
seemed a remedy against the peculiar
form of eXtradition proposed by Shock

The greatest single piece of work
which can be given to a navy yard is
the building of battleship. It. has
been learned from hard experience
that these ships cost from 25 to 60
per cent. more when built by the gov
