Paint Put-On

Think of paint put-on and not
by the gallon.
A gallon of paint in the can is
of no account to anybody. Put it
on. Now reckon it's cost and value.
The secret is: one paint goes
twice as far as another A good
one goes TWICE as far as a bad one.
You have a job,say an average
job. It'll take 10 gallons Deyoe
and IL or Is or IS or 20 of mid
ding poor very-poor and trash.
You know painters wages in your
town. Put the price of a gallon
of paint and the painters day-wage
together. You can, we can't.
Devoe costs less than any infer
ior paint; there are hundreds =
them.
One paint is as good as another,
so long as it lasts good zone lasts
months and another years; and the
one that goes furthest lasts long

DRAW KNOCKED LOOSE.
Transportation Suspended Over the
Cambridge Bridge as Result of
Accident to Draw-City of Mill
ford Ran Into It Knocked
About Two Feet Out of Position.

AS the result of the City of Mil
ford, of the Eastern Shore DeVel-
opment Steamship Co., running into
the draw on the bridge over Cam
bridge creek last night, about nine
o'clock, all traffic over the bridge
has been suspended since that tim e,
persons on the other side or this
side of the creek desiring to cross
over, being compelled to ferry
across by means of small boats.
The City of Milford had been
loading canned goods for the Phil
lips Packing Co., at the foot of
Muir street. and the captain had
arranged with the keeper of the
draw to turn it off about that hour,
in order to enable him to pass
through. As the boat approached
the draw lights had been arranged
in order that he might see clearly
to get through on the right side,
but thinking that he could make
the left side more easily, he at
tempted to pass through on that
side, and discovered that boat was
on that side; he then tried to steer
through on the right side, without
backing, as the result of which he
struck the draw squarely, knocking
it off of the foundations about two
feet.
DR.. and Mrs P. E. Hines, and
several other persons, were on the
draw at the time, and they,as we'll
as all other persons on either side,
who desired to get across, were
to wait until boats could
be secured to carry them over.
1t is expected that ten days or
5wo weeks will elapse before the

DIARY on FATHER ZINE

In no respect is the progress of
the age more visible than in the ap-
parent trifing matter of children's
books. The improvement in their
moral tone, alone, within the last few
hundred years, has been enormous.
The good little boy, the hero of infant
literature in the old days, stood the
chance of growing up into particu-
larry selfish and egotistical man. His
virtue consisted in being different
from some other little boy, generally
his brother, and his reward was hav-
ing a fine coach to ride in while his
brother went afoet. :.
Nowadays the little boy promises
to become much more of man. He
thinks of others as well as himself
and works and looks for his reward
to a character for good sense
Another fatal mistake made in the
old children's books was the constant
