WHAT PAINT WILL DO.
Adds to the Appearance and Value Of
Houses.

Ask any real estate man what per-
ctntage Of value is added to house
by a fresh coat Of paint and you will
be surprised at the size OF the figure he
will give you. Too many householders
have the habit Of putting OF painting
until house fairly screams for 1t,
and they perhaps figure that they are
economizing. Not so.
Good paint applied at regular inter
walls, not too far apart, is the true econ
omy in that 1t not only actually raises
the value of the house by improved
appearance. but through preservative
ingredients prevents and arrests de-
cay.
The man who let's his house become
an eyesore In an otherwise well kept
locality should be taxed for the heavy
damage he is doing 20 that community.

VIVA THE PRESIDENT
DID TO AVERT STRIKE DISASTER

Before 1 consulted with them (the railway execu-
tives and the representatives of the employes) I made
myself acquainted with the points at controversy.
The first thing 1 told both sides was that I stood
for the eight-hour day. We believe in the %eight-hour
day because a man does better work within eight hours
than he does in a more extended day. l said to the rail-
road executives: you are asking that the result of
the eight-hour day be predicted and the prediction be
arbitrated. The reasonable thing to do is to grant the
eight-hour day not because the men demand it, but
because it is right and let me get authority from Con-
gress to appoint a commission to observe the results
and report in order that justice may be done the rail-
roads in respect of the cost of the experiment."
That was the proposal which they rejected and
which Congress put into law, a proposal which 1 made
to them before 1 conferred with it, which l urged upon
them at every conference, and which when the one
side rejected and the other accepted I went to Congress
and asked Congress to enact. I did not ask either side
whether it suited them, and I requested my friends in
Congress not to ask either side whether it suited them.
l learned before the controversy began that the whole
temper of the legislative body was in favor of the
eight-hour day.
In the House of Representatives the plan was
passed, was sanctioned, by a vote which included sew
enty Republicans as against ffty-four Republicans. In
the Senate the Republican members held a conferences
in which they determined to put no obstacle in the way
of the passage Of the bill. Now, this was because the
proposal was reasonable and was based upon right
