PAINT BETTER


Better isn't enough; paint best.
A man bought "cheap" paint; saw
ed zoe or 80 or 40 or SOC a gallon,
didn't he?
Yes land bought 40 or so or 60 or
80 percent more gallons; how much
did he make on his paint?
And he paid for painting those gal
lons-a fair days work is a gallon
how much did he make on, the labor
part of his job?
He lost a quarter or third of his
money.
How long will it last? not his mon
ey, the paint?
Perhaps half as long as Devoe.
How long will his money last, if he
buys other stuff as he bought that
paint?
Better buy the best paint; it makes
the least bill and least-often.

portant quality to consider in select
ing sheep.
Whether you are keeping sheep for
pleasure or profit, your desires will
be more fully met if your flock is OF
superior quality. A strong sheep does
not necessarily have to mean a large
one; in fact. a majority of the strong
est sheep are medium in size.
Every sheep owner should keep a
purebred ram, but every man is not
qualified to keep purebred stock. Ev-
erything possible should be done to
bring the ewes to vigorous, flesh
forming condition at the mating PEI
riod. Sheep are excellent farm clean
ers, weed killers and fertilizers.
The man who desires large profits
from his flock should afford it the
best that good management will pro-
duce.

SAYING A FEW WORDS.
When Your Turn Comes Remember
That Short Speeches Never Bore.

If you are called upon to say a few
words after dinner or at a meeting,
don't be backward. Get right up and
go at it.
The chances are that what you say
on such an occasion, without prepare
ton, will be Of no Importance and
probably wouldn't have been of i'm
portance if it had been prepared in ad-
vance, but that isn't the point.
The point is that the minds of your
hearers will be quite as blank and
amorphous as your own, and con-
sequently the few who actually listen
to you will have no means of judging
whether what you say is rational or
not. The majority, out Of politeness,
will assume that you did well, or if
they do not wish to commit themselves
too irretrievably they will say you did
we'll under the circumstances.
The whole secret in Saying few
words" lies in making it few" If you
go on and on and on, your audience
will not heed or remember a thing you
said. They will only remember that
you talked long enough to bore them.
Short speeches never bore.-E. o. ]. in

Next Monday evening social will be
held for the guild in the church vestry.
Prayer service will be held on Wednes.
day at 1880 p. m.
In view of the special services to be
held from Oct. Is to "a, it is interesting
to note that Evangelist Lewis E. Smith,
who is to conduct them, is New Eng
land man, native of Portland, Me-, and
was converted eighteen years ago when a
proprietor of one of the large mills in
Lewiston. He possesses a splendid bari
tone voice, which is finely developed by
musical education. The calls for his
services became so numerous that he
gave up his position and determined to
devote his life to Christian work in the
Evangelistic field. He has gone steadily
onward and for the past twelve years has
labored under the direction of the Evan
gelistic Association of New England.
With Evangelist S. M. Layford he has
participated in most of the simultaneous
campaigns in the larger cities, such as
Boston. Philadelphia, Chicago and Brok-
Ign. There are few evangelists today
doubly gifted as preacher and singer,
consequently this rare combination in
Mr.. Smith makes his messabe in sermon
and song especially attractive. Every
church he has visited has borne testi-
mony to the uplift that has resulted and
his methods have been universally ap-
proved. In his solo work he uses large
autoharp of unusual sweetness and his
singing is great factor in the success he
has attained.

Pigs In Glover.

will wander around quite a little if
the weather is nice, and pick up
good deal of their living.
Another important part at this time
is the teed. Their feed should be of
rather bulky ration. Corn should
be fed moderately along with alfalfa
hay, some mill feeds, and a small
quantity of oil meal or tankage. The
sows should be kept gaining slowly
from the time they are bred till far
rowing time, and care should be taken
that the feeds are not too fattening.
A week or so before narrowing time,
each SOW should be shut by herself
and watched closely. Her feed should
be reduced little.
If this plan were followed more
closely, the average of the pig crop
would be somewhat larger.

BROOKLYN BRIDGE.
Painting the Great Structure Is Long
and Costly Job

Every three or four years it becomes
necessary to paint the Brooklyn bridge
in order to prevent the corrosv)n and
deterioration of its structural members,
says Popular Mechanics Magazine.
This is a task which requires the serv-
ices of q small army of human spid-
ers," who climb about over the web
of cables and stringers with almost as
much composure and agility as If they
We're insects instead of neil.
With buckets and brushes, they cling
in the network, swinging in the wind
as the constant stream of traffic surges
across the East river. Between them
and the river beneath there are more
than 200 feet Of space and the cables.
Every exposed strand and spot of the
whole structure must be painted. so
the men scramble over the cables until
they reach the topmost point of the
great towers, which extend 272 feet
above the water, and finally end up on
the scaffolds suspended beneath the
structure, where the mastheads Of pass
ing vessels scrape under the plankings,
sometimes missing them by margin
of only a few inches. This work con-
tinues usually for six or eight months
before it is completed and costs ap-
proXimately $50,O00.-Exchange.

1t is pointed out by a modern thinker
that there is no such thing as a moral
risk, for when we talk about risk
we mean that there is possibility.

suit. A boy takes a physical risk
when he goes skating on that part of
the river where the ice is thin. He
may fall through and injure his health
or lose his life. But when we venture
on thin ice in our moral life there is no
risk In the matter at all. There is as
sured catastrophe from the moment
we start in that direction. No one can
do anything which he knows involves

Henry Thomas Buckles thoughts

Men and women range themselves
into three classes or orders of intelli-
gence. You can tell the lowest class
by their habit of always talking about
persons, the next by the fact that their
habit is always to converse about
things. the highest by their preference
for the discussion of ideas"
