Coal a Luxury.
NEW YORK, Aug. 16.—Anthracite at
§l4 a ton is in prospect here, according
to one firm of miners and dealers. This j
is, of course, contingent on a continua
tion of the strike for a few weeks more.
While anthracite which has been bought!
at $9.50 a ton wholesale is expected to
be put on the market in a week or so .
at sll and $11.50 a ton retail, some of.
the dealers have raised the present re-'
tail price to flO a ton. A member of 112
the firm mentioned said:
"All the coal that has been hoarded |
up is practically cleaned up, and those j
who happen to have small stocks on |
hand are not parting with it except to !
favored customers. It is impossible to ,
fix a price now. Anthracite sells simp-1
ly for what it will bring. It is a luxury, j
and is only bought by people who must 1
heave it, and who have the money to 1
pay for it."
The representative of another largo
firm said: "I went along the line of the
Delaware, Lackawanna & Western
Railroad between Jersey City and
Boonton and found all the yards
empty. There was not even coal dust j
!in them. At other places I found i
barges laden with anthracite. What
they carried might seem a large quan- ;
tity to laymen, but it would bo only a j
drop in the bucket so far as the needs;
of New York are concerned."
Presidents of the coal-carrying com- j
panics will not undertake to predict |
when the strike will be over. They j
are inclined to extend the probable [
time when it will end from September :
1 to October 1.

Dear Sir: You can paint your barn
with a good barn paint, if you like.
Our agent may not have it in stock,
but will get it- we make it.
What is good barn paint?
It is paint that will wear well enough
look well enough for a barn, and cost
about half by the gallon.
How do you want your barn to look ?
Is the question. Anybody else's barn
is another matter. Your barn is your
business, your living, your profit.
You'd better be extravagant with it.
Paint it as well as a merchant or doctor
! or lawyer or banker paints his house.
Better paint your barn Devoe lead
and zinc. It costs more a gallon than
barn paint, but you use less gallons.
Yours truly,
"9 F. W. DEVOE & Co.
