Letter to J. D. Swope.
Emporium, Pa.
Dear Sir: The usual pain, lead and
oil, is made more durable by the ad
dition of zinz; as the more intelligent
painters know
Lead and oil, they say, lasts three
years. Add zinc, and lasts three years
with a margin, they say; but painters
generally advise to paint once in three
years.
Devoe lead and zinc is nothing but
lead zinc color dryer and oil; but it
laßts about twice as long as painters
reckon.
Mr. Knox, an undertaker for fifty
years at Brewster, N. Y. Painted Devoe
nine years ago. The paint is said tD
be in about as good condition as when
it was first put on.
Lead and oil don't last nine years.
Yours truly,
62 F. W. DEVOE & Co.

The club held a very interesting ses
| sion, Saturday night in Metzger's chicken
i coop with Harry Ward in the chair.
I Pap Blodget's report of his visit to Etn
j porium was received with cheers. The
! club was glad to hear that John Hogan
and Murphy were upset in the second
round. Dalryniple hid in Murphy's ice
house; Fred Hill had business in other
! parts of the town and Seger threw up the
l sponge without a contest.
W. 11. Michael's reported that he had
three barrels of rattlesnake oil, of fine
quality, secured fiom the snakes A. W.
Mason killed at Sterling Bun, of recent
date.
0. L. Bailey appeared with a sealed
quart and a good feeling prevailed while
it lasted.
One of our members ran for judge of
i election and would have been defeated,
I but Frank Jordan, another, cast the last
! ballot, and prevented a tie.
Han-come tried to swipe a six pound
1 rooster. II e was fined six cents for the
attempt, as the club don't allow its mem
bers to confiscate any fowls larger than
four pounds.
Our quarters were so small that we
had to adjourn until the Fourth of July
| when we wil. be prepared to meet all
j comers. Mason's beau story included.
