•'Fewer Gallons; Wears Longer."
The secret is out and Emporium can
goon living just as if the riddle had
never been asked.
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. '

A $39,000.00 Piano Sale.
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.
! "Just in the nick of time our little boy
was saved" writes Mrs. W. Watdios, of
Pleasant City. Ohio. "Pneumonia had

length we tried Dr. King's New Discovery

saved. He's now sound, and well."!

STRONG AGAIN. I
You who once possessed sturdy phys
iques and steady nerves, but now have
insufficient physical force to properly
attend to ordinary duties; you who
have a sense of "all-goneness" after the
slightest exertion; you who are dull,
languid and old in spirits at an age
when you should I>e full of physical fire;
you who may feel that your life is not
worth the struggle—there is a scientific
means of redeeming all the precious
powers which seem to be entirely lost.
Have cured thousands such as you.
Don't experiment with your health or
money. We will take the risk. If six
boxes do not cure you, your money is
returned. For years we have been
curing men on these satisfactory terms.
