Paint Better

Better isn't enough; paint best.
A man bought Cheap" paint;
saved zoe or 80 or 40 or SOC a gallon,
didn't he?
Yes, and bought 40 or so or 60 or
so percent more gallons; how much
did he make on his paint?
And he paid for painting those
gallons-a fair days work is a gal
lon-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
money 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.

over the trenches on both sides for ~
hours without interruption. The Germans
are massing reserves TO meet expected at

Germany Will Make Reparation
for American Lives Lost on
All Ships Sunk by

NO DIFFICULTY FoRsEEN

. WASHINGTON. oct. 6.-Now for the
t.usitania case. This was the Washing
ton attitude today The President and
Secretary Lansing prepared to erect fuh
settlement OF the whole submarine war
fare issue with Germany, originally pro-
voked by the Lusitania disaster. The
compete agreement yesterday by Ger
many to this Governments demands in
the Arabic case paved the way.
Reparation for over 100 American. lives
lost on the Lustania has not vet been
assured and informal negotiations be-
tween Lansing and Ambassador Bern
storff personally will begin Immediately.
Germany Is not expected to disavow the
Busitania's sinking. as II occurred be-
fore Germany altered her submarine pol
icy at this Governments request But
there is expected to be little difficulty
in securing financial reparation for the
Americans lost.
Arrangements for indemnity payments
for the two Americans lost on the Arabic
will formally close the Arabic incident.
Bernstorh Is expected to return here
soon for the purpose.
Unlimited authority given by Germany
to Bernstorn to completely adjust all sub
marine issues to American satisfaction
was regarded today by officials as strik-
ingly evidenced in the Arabic settlement.

CAPTURE ALLEGED SLAYER
OF MEMBER OF UMBRELLAS
Accused Man Exhausted When Ar
rested on Turnpike


Patrick Patton. who. the police say,
shot and killed an itnerant umbrella
mender who went by the name of
Dutch" early yesterday on the estate
OF William Beechwood, in Haverford
township was arrested this afternoon by
Constable William S. Thompson, of Dar-
by at Toll Gate No. 3 on the West
Chester pike.
Patton was nearly exhausted when cap
turcd. He had fed after the shooting
and had been hiding in the woods with
out food or shelter. He had cautiously
made his way from the scene Of the crime
by following paths through the woods
and had emerged below the toll gate.
Thompson had been on tho mans trail
since the shooting and caught him few
minutes after he reached the pike.
According to the Constable, Patton ad-
mitted he shot the umbrella mender, but
said he did not know the man was dead
until told so by Thompson. He was fed
and taken to Media at once.
The victim OF the shooting has been
a man of mystery to the residents OF
Delaware County. For years he has
been wandering through that section OF
the State. No one knows where he had
lived. He seldom spoke about himself
and on one occasion, when asked where
he was born. replied: Way down East"

GREEK CABINET FOLLOWS
VENIZELOS IN RESIGNATION

ATHENS, Oct. 8.
Premier venizelos announced In the
Chamber of Deputies today that the Caoi-
net had resigned owing TO differences be-
tween King Constantine and the Ministry
The sittings of the Chamber were then
suspended.
Venizelos explained that the Cabinet
had found II impossible to alter the pro-
gram agreed upon, even to meet the
wishes of the throne and that the resig-
nation OF the Ministers was therefore
necessary.
The designations were presented today
following as a matter of course the re-
tirement of Premier Nenizelos, whose
earlier resignation the King formally ac-
cepted.
The fall of the Cabinet and suspension
of the preliminary sessions leaves King
Constantine in full mastery of the situa-
tion. The Kings learings are strongly
pro-German, owing to the dominance of
his wife, Queen Soma, fayorite sister of
the Kaiser.

prrRnGRAD- oct. 6

PETRoGRAD. Oct g.
Severe snow storms are now raging IN
the Baltic provinces where Field Marshal
Won Hlndenburg's campaign against Riga
and Dvinsk has thus far completely
failed Petrograd military experts assert
ed today that the German efforts to make
these two cities their winter quarters had
apparently collapsed.
The official reports OF operations along
the entire front from the Baltic TO Buko-
wilma show a slackening in activity.
While this in a measure u due to the
snow in the north and heavy rains on
the southern wing. II is believed here
that the Germans have withdrawn a
great part OF their forces for the Servian
campaign and for operations in the west
ern theatre.
French reports that Field Marshal Won
Mackensen has been selected to lead
the Austro-German army that invades
servls are generally accepted here.
In some sectors the Russians are har-
assing the Germanic allies and by ener-
getically developing separate engagements
are GRADUALLY improving ihcH pOSlNiohS'
German attempts TO reach the sarny
railway junction. north Of Rovno, were
checked by the Russians, who success
fully crossed the River Stryj at Polenne,
the point where the Kovel-Sarny Railway
crosses the river.
When arrested the Teutons were %
miles west OF Sarny. The Russian sue
cess here is bound to affect the fight in
the region OF Kolki, for II threatens the
iTeutons in the rear.
Determined efforts are being made by
the Germans to revive their left wing in
the region of Dvinsk by reinforcements
and the use OF heavy guns. Their object
Is the capture of both banks of the West
ern Dvina.
This prospect is tempting as offering
the subsequent seizure OF railway con-
nection to Petrograd. Their chances OF
success, however, are smaller now than
they were a fortnight ago.
