able to defy the elements" So

the face of old Father Time and
go ahead. Such a man is Reese
T. Kinder, of Thompson Valley.
He was here this week and when
he stated in reply to an inquiry,
that he is 83 years old, the state
ment seemed incredible. He is
strong of body and mind and in
appearance as young as the av-
erage man of so years or less.
He said that he can do almost as
much work on the farm as ever.
had used tobacco all his life and
had taken a dram" when ever
he needed one, had drank coffee
enough to swim a horse, fought
through the war, and reared a
family of seven children and
from all appearances and present
indications he is good for many
years yet.

gallon Devoe and a half-dolla,,
less for trash.
What is trash.
1t looks like paint and pretends
to be paint, but isn't worth paint
lng. 1t costs a painters days
work to put-on a gallon of paint
good or bad; and painters
day s-work is So or 81.
Add that to the price of a
gallon. That to the cost of a
gallon. Devoe is SIS or Sc a gallon.
and trash a half-dollar less.
But Devoe is all paint and
more too; you add on to it; a
gallon is 5 or 6 quarts of perfect
paint for the painters pot. But
trash is three quarters two.
