- y Skim-Milk Paint. The following formula for making, skim-milk paint will be of interest to all who desire a cheap paint that wS& wear well. Stir into a gallon of adrim-milk three, pounds of Portland cement, adding, at the same time, any paint, in dry form, that will give the color you desire. The milk will hold the paint in suspension, but tke cement, being heavy, will sink, therefore, it will be necessary to keep the mixture stirred with a paddle. Mix only enough at a time for one day's use. If the mixture is act thoroughly stirred, as you use it, it will get thicker and thicker, and it will be necessary to thin it by adding more milk. Six hours after applying this paint it will be dry. It is not affected by weather. Car bolic acid or any other disinfectant ean be added, thus making it very affective for use in poultry houses and the stable. It makes an excel- paint for fences when colored l bv the. addition of a little ipblaek, or a dull green, by ad- ocher and a small quantity 01 nan blue E. B.

At a dinner of a legal association add in Washington not long ago one af the speakers told of a farmer's son in Illinois who conceived a de sire to shine as a legal light. Ac cordingly he went up to Springfield, where he accepted employment at a small sum from a fairly well known attorney. At the end of three days' study he returned to the farm. Well, Bill, how'd ye like the lawt" asked his father. "It ain't what it's cracked up to be," responded Bill gloomily. "I'm sorry I learned it." September Lippincot t 's.

J BOY PAINTERjffi M STANDS FOR I PAINT QUALITY igf& 1 wp . s2 I IT IS FOUND ONLYONpSfe PURE WHITE LEAD 81 A Rig Conflagration Disturbs Sunday's Quiet. SWEEPS OVER THREE BUCKS Firemen Enjoying Their Annual Pic nic at Suburban Park end the Blaze Gets a Good Headway Be fore They Get to Work cn it. New Orleans, Special. Fire which broke oat in Jfie centre of the com mercial district here Sunday after noon swept over portions' of three blocks, destroying a large number of wholesale house?, manufacuring plants and small stores. Originating at Bienville and Chartres streets, the flames worked their way north as far as Conti street and west toward Royal, bringing about a property loss of between .one and two million dol lars before they were finally sub dued. Several circumstances combined to give the fire a headway which proved hard to overcome. At the time the alarm was turned in, shortly before 3 o'clock, the New Orleans firemen were in the midst of their annual pic nic at suburban park and the engines and patrols responded with a mere handful of men. It was fully an hour before the department was in a posi tion to make anything like a suc cessful fight against the fire, and even then the handicap against it was added to by an inadequate supply of water. The fire was one of the most spec tacular that has occurred in New Or leans during recent years. The sec tion devastated was made up largely of old buildings, some over a half century in use. They proved like so much tinder to the flames, and fan ned by a high wind, the fire made rapid progress. Two warehouses, filled with wines and liquors, were among the build ings destroyed by the fire. As they burned the barrels of whiskey and brandy exploded with thunderous roars which could be heard for blocks and which shook, the walls of ad joining buildings and endangered the lives of firemen engaged in fighting the flames. Gen. A. P. Stewart Dead. Biloxi, Miss., Special. Gen. Alex ander P. Stewart, one of the last two surviving lieutenant generals of the Confederate States army, died at his home here Sunday. Although in his 87th year and suffering from the in firmities of old age. General Stew art's death was sudden and came as a distinct shock to his relatives and friends. General Stewart had been in failing health here at the home of his son, Dr. A. P. Stewart, for a year or more. Death was due to heart iisease. A native of Tennessee, Gen eral Stewart lived the greater part of his life in that State, but of late had been making his home in Biloxi, where he found the salt air and pine woods of great benefit to his health. Nearly Stabbed to Death. Winston-Salem, N. C, .Special. Dangerously, perhaps fatallyv wound ed, Sid Chandler, a young white man, was found early Sunday morning bleeding and unconscious, on the ground near the home of Millie Bui lock, a white woman, on Crawford street. He had been cut and stabbed on the body. At the Twin City Hos pital, where the young man was tak en, it was said that he was doing as well as could be expected. It is be lieved by the police that Chandler was in a general fight among several men. Several arrests will be made, it is said. Killed in Family Quarrel. Tallahassee, Special. In a shoot ing affray Sunday night at this place Jim Duncan was killed. Investiga tion has consumed all day to deter mine whether the man was shot by one Harvey, who was visiting at the Duncan home, or by the wife of Will Duncan, a brother of the dead man. Harvey and Will Duncan and hfs wife were all arrested- Aged Man Walks a Hundred Miles to Fulfill Promise; Huntsville, Ala., Special. Charles Eaton, an aged one-armed man, who had been released from jail by Federal Judge Hundley to visit his sick wife, surrendered himself Sat urday night after having walked over 100 miles to fulfill his promise to return. After visiting his wife at Winchester, Tenn., Eaton omrd him self without funds and was forced to walk back to Huntsville, where he was serving a sentence for illicit dis tiling. Found Dead in His Office. Raieih, N. C, SpeeiaL Cold and stiff in eath the body of Mr. S. G. Ryan, a lawyer of this city, was found Sunday nigf at 11 o'clock in his of fice in the Commercial and Farmers' Rank Building. Mr. Ryan had prob ably been dead for twelve or fifteen hours, as he had not been seen .all dr.y. For seme time he had been a sniiercr from asthma but death is supposed to have been from heart trouble. When Hypnotised Tramps Meet Death. A. No. 1, the well-known tramp, states that riding upon the trfuck beams,' between the wheels of a fly ing passenger train, or even of? a slower-going freight train is extreme ly difficult. The flying cintfers deluge the eyes and at times make breathing almost impassible. More than this, he says that unless one strictly watches himself one is in danger of becoming hypnotized. The rhythmically pounding wheels, jolt ing over the joints of the rails, haVe a way of insistently commanding at tention that is extremely dangerous. This noise, sharp and repeated wtfc devilish persistence, can hypnotize the unwary, he says. Often he his had to use everv resource of will power which he had in order to ward off the effects of this endless arid mind-compelling "click, click, click. P He believes that many a tramp who has fallen to his death from the trucks has been first hypnotized in this way. This is perfectly sound psychology and the probability of such hypnotism will be endorsed by any good specialist in this science-.

Trouble a Bird's Nest Causes, A hatpin used toy a pair of swallows is the foundation for their nest, buili between two wires, put the entire po-! lice alarm system of the suburb o! Ballard out of business Saturday. The police 4 alarm wires from Ballard tc headquarters at the city hall were tested box by box until the trouble was located. P was discovered that tlfilculty lay between the box at Fro mont and the one next south. The electrician could find nothing more se rious than a swallow's neat. Investigation showed that the neat which stretched from one wire to an ither, a distance of about eight inches, was bulk on a hatpin, which touched both wires and short circuited the whole system.

I have a lawn 200 feet by 150 feet without a dandelion, and I didn't rip up my lawn either. (How do I keep the dandelions out? I dig them out carefully every spring and keep a close watch for their re appearance during the summer, thus avoiding the seeding. Every spring I scatter plenty of blue grass seed on my lawn and thus supply it with seed that is lost to it by reason of fre quent cutting. Not only that, but when I am dig ging dandelions I have a pocket full of seed handy and drop a pinch of seed In each hole I make when I ex tract the dandelion from the sod. New grass grows up quickly, fills the hole and chokes the dandelion. Denver Post, Blinks.

WHAT THE TRADE MARK MEANS TO THE BUYER. i i I Few people realise the importance of the words "Trade Mark" stamped on the goods they buy. If they did it would save them many a dollar spent for worthless goods and put m lot of unscrupulous mannfactmess oht of business. I When a manufacturer adopts trade mark he assumes the entire re sponsibility for the merit of his pro duct. He takes his business reputa tion in his hands out in tho lime light "on the square" with the bny er of his goods, with the dealer, and with himself. The Other manufacturer the erne who holds out "inducements," offer ing to brand all goods purchased with each local -dealer's brand- sidesteps responsibility, and when these infe rior goods "come back" it's tho local dealer that must pay the penalty. A good example of the kind of pro tection afforded the public by a trade mark is that offered in connection with National Lead Company's ad vertising of pure White-Lead as the best paint material. That the Dutch Boy Painter trade mark is an absolute guaranty of pur ity in White Lead is proved to tho most skeptical by the offer National Lead Company make to send free to any address a blow-pipe and instruc tions how to test the white lead fori uiemseives. ine xesung outnt is -Doing- sent out from the New York office of the company, Woodbridge Building- w. m b ar svBft We offer one hundred collars reward for any case of pneumonia in any family where they use Goose Grease aa directed.
