Expensive at
any Price

People who want things cheap gener-
ally get them-an honest, reliable and
durable job of painting demands an
honest price.
The lowest bid does not necessarily
mean the cheapest job, since the first
cost of poor job is only the beginning
the necessary burning and scraping
when it cracks, scales and checks is a
second expense greater than the first.
We can give you a durable and truly
economical job because we use the high
est grade materials-Strictly Pure White
Lead, Pure Linseed Oil, Turpentine and
Colors. Our men are skilled mechan-
les. We know how to handle surfaces.

WILL LIVE IN GLASS Ho USES.

| I'm Ten Years A m ericnns WIFI Reside | Where They Can't Throw Stones.
 within ten years people in this i country will be building houses of | glass. which will excel in sanitary | appointments, beauty and durability and also low cost of maintenance any | type of structure of the present time. In other words, the American people within ten years will be living in glass houses. They will thenceforth be un- able to throw stones."
 This was the interesting declaration made recently by Roger s. Pease, one of the oldest glassmakers in the United States, man whc has taken an active part in all the improvements that have set the glass world face to face with new conditions and placed it in line for the greatest development in its long history. the Pittsburg Ga zette-Times says. By glass houses Mir. Pease said he meant just what he said Foundations of concrete, which are now recognized as standard, the walls of wired glass, the ceiling and roofs of wired glass, and the floors of tile, covered with a light sheeting of wood. Such a building will prove practically indestructible, can be made of any sort of colors desired and requires nospaint- ing, no papering inside, will be sound proof, moisture-proof and fireproof
 MT. Pease has planned a house that will be composed of glass and is go- ing to have it finished in some color that vii make it attractive and such colors will be permanent.
 The moment this idea is started, Mir. Pease declared, the public will be quick to see the value of the material. Its cheapness and reliability are un. derstood. Glass, he said, is the most honest and most easily understood ma terial in the world. It is not mys- terious and people will not have to employ experts to see that the quality is right. The glass for the walls of houses need not be transparent, but dense, like slate or stone. The roofs can be of the same character of glass. It withstands heat and cold alike and whatever patents may interfere with the cheapness of the material now are so nearly expired that it will be but a short time before these will be elim mated as A cost factor

"'I did. We were hunting by the banks of the river with our rifles when all at once we saw big alligator lying on rock in the river. The witch man was lying asleep in a hammock some fifty yards away. O the dangerous creature he isl
 Well, king, do not laugh with your eyes like that, for I am speaking the truth. I put up my rife to shoot the alligator, but to our great fear, as soon as l fired, this fellow rolled out of his hammock and fell on the ground, and rubbed his back, and swore he was hurt.

RULING A SAVAGE TRIBE.
EeGeGGEEeEeGEEGEe GEeEeEFEEI

The author of Heroes of Modern Crusades,' the Rev. Edward Gilliat, M. A, at one time master of HarroI School, says in his most interesting book that he had few years ago the privilege of meeting the king of the Quiah country, Tetty Agamasong, at Harrow. The Quiah king had been Canterbury, and was able to lecture to the Harrovians in good English. n his lecture he told a quaint story which brings one nearer to the weird lives of the Quiahs, small agricui- tural and trading tride of inoffensive character on the west coast of Africa.
 "In my country" said the king, we have no prisons; therefore if cul- prit is brought to me l must chop of something-an ear or two, a hand or foot-and he goes home sadder and wiser man. Just before l left for bringing a prisoner.

High Rank Attained by Many
 WieIders of StrOp and Razor.
 Perhaps the best known of all bar bers who have attained fame were Arkwright, the improver of the spin ming jenny, who was said to have turned to mechanics when the wigmak- ing trade fell of, and Jeremy Taylor. who was brought up in his fathers shaving shop at Cambridge, says Lon don Tit-Bits. Edward Sugden, after ward made Baron St. Leonard, was the son of hair cutter in shop in Lincoln's Inn, London. Once when Sugden was addressing a crowd in the interest of his candidacy for parlia- ment a man called out to know what soap cost and how father was made. "I am particularly obliged to that gen tleman," Sir Edward is reported 70 have said, flor reminding me of my lowly origin. It is true that I am a barber's son and that I myself was so politely reminded me of these facts had been barber he would have con- tinued to remain one till the end of his life" Charles Abbott, Baron Ten terden,, was also a barber's son, and it is related how, when he was made a peer of England, he took his own son to a little Westminster shop and bade him remember it was there that his grandfather had been accustomed to shave others for a penny. William Falconer, the poet, was poor barber in Edinburg until his poem, The Shipwreck," brought him renown and incidentally commission in the royal navy. Craggs, associated with the South sea bubble, was barber turned promoter. He became enormously wealthy, but when the South sea crash came his fortune dwindled and in des- pair he committed suicide. Giovanni Belzoni of Padua was a barber with a varied and interesting history Bel zoni set up shop in England, but soon found more profit in posing at Sadler's Wells as the "Patagonian Samson" Being of thrifty tempera- ment, Belzoni accumulated quite for tune. He achieved lasting fame as tn, discoverer of interesting relics in the tombs of Egypt and as a traveller

mIued to marry a mere commoner. younger son of a mere noble. The boy king of Portugal is five or six years her junior, but is quite good-lookiug in contrast to her former suitor of Spain. Perhaps Patricia has yielded 10 persuasions of duty, for it is important dynastically to consummate the politi- cal alliance of Portugal and Britain. Portugal not only has harbors of use to the British fleet, but she has vast possessions in Africa which the Ger man covets. Nevertheless, what sac rifice this marriage is, if it is to be marriage. This one beautiful daughter of Britain's royal house, granddaughter of Victoria and also of the Red Prince of Prussia, the genius of the 1Si. war, goes to the throne of decrepit coun- try, abjures her religion, may be blown up by bombs or murdered with the knife, at least have her nerves broken as are those of her cousin, the Queen of Spain. One cannot help being sorry for Victoria Patricia of Connaught.

A Good Cheer Society which is na- tional in scope and will eventually be national, and perhaps international, in membership. has recently been estab- ished through the efforts of a young woman from Seattle. The purpose is to carry good cheer everywhere, but especially to convalescents in and from the hospitals; not the dispensing of charity, but the exhibition of inter- ests, friendly feeling and sympathy, is the aim. The society has been incor- porated in New York. and lodges al ready exist in New York, Boston, Chi cago and Seattle. The membership is composed wholly of women, and is un- limited.

 walls that the age of patriotism has yielded to the age of commercialism," and that 'uppermost in the human mind today is not the Stars and Stripes, but the dollar mark" We don't believe it. The distinguished jurist must have eaten too much din ner. The baseless superstition that commerce a selfish thing and trade utterly without bowels of sentiment is a survival from the feudalism that despised any pursuit save murder and every profit save privilege The truth is that all national patriotisms to-day rest upon the need of commerce and industry for organized order, law and security, and those countries whose national power and good are upheld by the commercial and industrial classes, are exactly the ones whose citizens exhibit most national patriot ism. Napoleon called England a na- tion of shopkeeperS, but the patriot ism of the shopkepers in the course of thirteen years of war wore the Cor sican down. The South despised the Yankees as devoted to the almighty dollar, but the South was conquered by the sacrifices of blood and treasure the Yankees made. Feudalism, chiv- airy, and that sort of things kept Ger many disrupted and Japan collection of warning tribes. National patriotism is a quality of modern Germany and modern Japan Right here in Ameri- ca at this present hour is more sense of civic responsibility, of patriotic de votion, of public ideality than ever animated the rank and file of any nu- merous people. We need them all, in order to deal with the evils that af- fiict us, but we are not corrupt to the core or blind worshipers of Mammon not by a great deal
