RENtTsoN, THE DRUGGIST.
SIGNS OF THE TIMES

ID The most encouraging sign Of
the times to me is the steady de-
mand for better paint and paint
ing. Property owners are becom-!
ing better educated on the subject.
They are demanding genuine hon
est paint, and Ibelieve they are
seeking the services of practical
painters. Where in the past but
little attention was paid to quality
of materials or workmanship, as a,
result fraudulent paint mixtures
are becoming fewer, and they are
refusing to accept any substitute
for the genuine, and any painter
who uses good old white lead and
[linseed oil mixtures has the salts
faction Of knowing he is using the
highest grade paint that is possible
Eto produce.
Is House painting at present often
seems commercial rather than arr
|tistic, as the almighty dollar is.
I the first nsideration and often
I the most modern houses, both ex.a
terror and interior, are finished:
with little 5thot as to proper execu-
|tion or durability, and no workman
lever enters a building capable Of
leffecting so complete a transform
alton as the painter and decorator,
land often does his work amid
surroundings making lit difficult.
TODD even a fair job. Working
together with carpenters and
plumbers, where dust and dirt are
constantly being circulated, yet he
lis expected to do first class work,
land often does regard less of these
condi tions. Is it not wonderful?
Now a few words as to exterior
painting which has given the aver
liage painter no little trouble, by
the use Of so much fraudulent
ltpaint, mixtures and inferior ochre
lpriming, which is the more inn
portant Of any. Dom make the
mistake Of many. thinking any

be taken to produce a light spongy
bread.
First: Good -four.

mixing. Don't put in too much
flour. If you do the bread will be
dry and crumbly.
Fourth: Proper temperature
for rising
Fifth: Sufficient kneading
H Sixth: When the loaves have
risen TO the right point they should
be placed in properly heated
oven.
81 Seventh: Care in baking.
We can furnish you with the first
requisite in the GARLAND"
flour which has no equal as bread
producer. 1t is rich in gluten

In the opinion Of Mr.. Hastings,
the greatest handicap to the egg
trade is the general store, with it's
custom Of bartering merchandise
for eggs. The storekeeper reckons
his profit on goods as more than his
loss on eggs. He does not try to
enforce improvement upon his pa
irons by buying on an equality ba-
