No it can't, either, Emporium is not going to be what it was before. Its houses are going to bo brighter; its peo ple a little more prosperous—they are going to have some of their money lefc to buy other things with. The answer to the riddle is this: You can paint a building with fewer gallons of Devoe Lead and Zinc paint than with mixed paints, and it will wear several times as long as a building painted with lead and oil mixed by hand. What will people do with the rest of their money? Murray & Coppersmith sells it. Every newspaper writer realizes sooner or later that the majority of peo ple, and especially politicians, are like the house cat, says the Warren Mail. You can praise them and help them and rub the fur the smooth way till dooms day and there is no kick coming when the petting is done free of charge. But chance to rub the fur the wrong way once! Print something they don't like. Then oh, what a howl! Sharp teeth and ugly claws are shown and efforts are made to demolish the paper and publisher. But some people are differ ent. They realize that a paper is like a hotel bill of fare. They take what they want and what they like and leave the remainder for the people who are different. That is the best way. Owing to an imperfection in the new issue of postage stamps they have been called in and now stamp collectors are hustling to get hold of some of them. Of the new issue it is the 2-cent ones in which the imperfection has been discov ered The stamp is a light red, the de sign being a vignette bearing the por trait of Washington. On each side the portrait is flanked by an American flag, hanging in folds from top to bottom. It is in the flag portion that the imper- ! fection exists, as the designer made so many folds that it is almost impossible to discern the flag. No more of the ; stamps will be issued from Washington, and it is said that the offices which hold ! a large supply have been ordered to sell 1 as few as possible, it being the intention to recall them as soon as stamps of a new design are issued. Great Men Were Poor Boys. The Detroit Free Press prints the following paragraphs about poor boys Boys who are poor and obscure should put these items in a scrap book: Wm. McKinley's early home was plain and comfortable and his father was able to keep him at school. Millard Fillmore was a son of a New York farmer and his home was a humble one. He learned the business of a clothier. An drew Jackson was born in a log hut in North Carolina and was reared in the pine woods for which his state is famous. John Adams, second Presi dent, was the son of a grocer of very moderate means. The only start he had was a good education. Orover Cleveland's father was a Presbyterian minister with a small salary and large family. The boys had to earn their living. Ulysses S. Grant lived the life of a village boy, in a plain house on the banks of the Ohio river until he was 17 years of age. Abraham Lincoln was the son of a wretchedly poor farmer in Kentucky and lived in a log cabin until he was 21 years old. James K. Polk spent the early years of his life help ing to dig a living out of a farm in North Carolina. He was afterward clerk in a country store. Andrew Johnson was apprenticed to a tailor at the age of 10 years by his widowed mother. He was never able to attend school and picked up all the education ' he ever had. James A. Garfield was ! born iu a logcabin. He worked on ai farm until he was strong enough to use | a carpenter's outfit, when he learned t the trade. He afterward worked on a ! canal.

GEORGE F. HEDGE & CO., OF BUF FALO HELL THEIR ENTIRE BUSINESS TO DENTON, COT TIER & DANIELS. The purchase by Denton, Cottier & Daniels of George F. Hedge & Co.'s business is one of the most important transactions which ever occurred in BufTalo's piano trade, the consideration being over $39,000 spot cash. George F. Hedge & Co. were one of the oldest and most respected piano concerns in Buffalo and enjoyed an enviable reputation for selling pianos of character and reliability. Their un usually large stock was selected for this season's trade and it is a matter df" regret to their many friends that they were forced to retire from business. However, "It's an ill wind t{iat blows nobody good," Denton, Cottier & Daniels secured the stock at a great sacrifice and removed the entire collec tion of pianos and organs to their warerooms, Nos. 269-271 Main Street, where they offer all of Hedge's fine j pianos as well as a large selection from their own surplus and renting stock at about half the usual prices. Included in this sale are such well known makes as Steinway, Ivers & Pond, Kranich & Bach, Fischer, Kra kauer, Vose, Crown, Bradbury, Lud wig, Smith & Barnes, Richmond, Steck, A. B. Chase and many others. You run no risk in buying one ofthese instruments as Denton, Cottier & j Daniels give their ironclad guarantee with every piano, and if it is not con venient to pay cash, they sell on very I small monthly payments. This would seem to be an excellent i opportunity for anyone wanting a bar j gain in a reliable piano of standard j make, and it would doubtless pay to write to Denton, Cottier & Daniels, or, better still, make a visit to Buffalo and 1 j see what they have to offer, Tragedy Averted. !
