Dear Sir: Paint goes by gallons,
There aie useful and useless gallons.
Useful pni nt is load-zinc-and-oll with
hryer and color; useless paint is whit
ing, china clay, giound stoLe, bary
tes, benzine, or water.
This stuff is put-in, because it is
cheap,1 to stuff-out paint, to make
more gallons to Bell; of course, the
buyer doesn't suspect,' or lie wouldn't
buy it :" ''.';' '-;
It costs as much to brush on this
useless stuff as lead-zinc-and-oil; but
it looks like that aud feels like that
in the brush; the puiutlr doesn't sus
pect it. Besides if the owner .is will
ing,' why should the painter object
to painting two gallons for one? He
is paid by the day; more gallons, more
days, more money. . . . .
Average paint at full price is about
one-third this useless stuff; and aver
age paint at $1.25, $1.50 of $1.75 a
gallon Is two-thirds trash. Fool paint
is the proper name for all but pure
paint; it is made to fool people with.
Knave paint is another good name; it
is made, of course, by knaves. Sick
paint is a name for an honest weak
paint They are all weak and all ex
travagent: too many gallons to buy
and too many gallons to brush-on.
Devoe Is the standard.

AUTO TS. BULL.-
New Use For Devil Wagous. Mny be
.Efflcient lo Warfare.
Chicago, Aug. 10. In a thrilling bat
tie In an open roadway, between a
modern touring Car and. a" huge red
bull, In which the animal and machine
clashed head-on Bcores of t'imes, tlie
automobile, engineered ; by human
brains, proved victorious and the bull
3 left dead on the road, . '
The encounter took place recently
ic.ir Watertown, on tho road from -Madison
to Oconomowoc. The occu
ant4 of the automobile, which vah
jiilshed the fighting bull were, Mr.
tnd Mrs. II. M. Byllos'by, forty Fourth
itreet and Drexel boiiyoyard, who are
.laiting nt Diaper Hall with Gwyn
and Albert Cummina, of Chicago,' and
he Misses Margaret aud Evelyn Post,"
if Scranton, Pa. '
The flf ht between the huge touring
ar and the equally larjie bull was
fearful and magnificent," "and those
taking part' in it are positive the flght
ag prowess exhibited by the bull was
.ever seen in the bull 'rings of Mexico
r Spain, or any other 'country where
mil flahtlng is piesented 09 a sport
The automobile was running at a
ligh rato of speed near Watertown,
n file way from Madison to Ocouoin
)woo, when the bull appeared In tho'
oad. .With lov.'ercd head nnd angry
ellow the animal mado plasn the fact
hat the passape wan t v x cr.-ttestod.
.foplng that ihe bea';t r.'buid wove to
he other Eiiie cf th i lad as the car
ippi-oachcd, the ch:Jfoi.r continued at
he same speed.
Theu like u flash the bull charged
the machine, meeting, it head-on with
a Jar ttmt shook the aiitolsta As they
recovered the bull charged again.
Recognizing that only In victory lay
the means of escape fbe chaffeur
threw oh full speed and machine and
animal mot In cru.'.h after crash.
Tho heavy contact with the big car
mu-.e.l blood to stream, from the
cmoulh and no:;o of the bull, but game
iy be keit' up his fljht, and again and
jgaln charged with lowered head on
the car. ,The battle was too much for
even his great strength, though, and
ts, when fatally etnbbed by theTgword
ot the mattador, he at last became
'eeblo'and after a final charge on tot- .
ering legs fell to the side of ho road
.0 die. ;
Tho occupants ot the automobile
ivere roughly shaken by the continued
shocks as machine and bull met, and
all were thankful to enrape without
icrlous Injury.
