After a building has been painted long enough for a weather test, it is easy to tell If the paint used was made of pure White Lead or not. But such belated knowledge comes like locking the barn after the colt is sto- len. What one wants is a test that will tell the quality of the paint before it and the labor of putting it on are paid for. Nature has provided a way In which genuine White Lead may be positively distinguished from adul- terated or fake White Lead before you spend a cent on your painting. Pure White Lead is made from me- tallic lead, and, under intense heat, such as is produced by a blow-pipe, pure White Lead will resolve itself back into metallic lead. If, however, it is not genuine White Lead, or if it contains the slightest trace of adul- teration, the change will not take place. Therefore the “blow-pipe” test is an absolute and final one. The National Lead Compan, are urging every one interested in paint- ing to make this test of paint before using it, and they guarantee that the pure White Lead sold under their “Dutch Boy Painter” trade-mark will always prove absolutely pure under the “blow-pipe"” or any other test. To make it easy for you to perform the experiment they will send you free upon request a blow-pipe and everything necessary for you to make the test, together with a valuable booklet on paint.

Former Chief New Haven, Conn.~—John F. Stev- ens, a vice-president of the New road, and a former chief engineer of the Panama Canal, has issued a state- ment regarding the latter enterprise, in which he prophesies a failure of the undertaking. In this statement Mr, Stevens says that the canal will not help the Uni- ted Btates in its trade with South America, as practically all of the in- habitants of the Southern Continent are on the east of the Andes, so that it would be of no advantage to make use of the canal to reach there. Mr. Stevens also says that in our commer- cial relations with the islands of the Pacific and the Far East the canal will be of little value. Our coal and wheat centres are inland. Their pro. ducts have to be started on their way by rail. When loaded on cars it would not be cheaper to ship to the At- lantic and then ship to the East by the way of the canal than it would be to send directly to the ports on our pacide coast and then get on board ship Furthermore, Mr. Stevens believes that our coal supply is fast diminish. ing and that China will be the coal country for the future. Siberia, he says, will be the wheat country of the future, with India a close second. Mr. Btevens maintains that the Swift Interests Buy 300,000 Acres and 20,000 Cattle in Texas, Austin, Texas Major George W. Littlefield, of Austin, closed a deal for the sale of his 300,000 acre ranch, which comprises nearly all the land in Lamb and Hockley counties in the Panhandle of Texas, to a syndicate of Chicago men closely identified with thé hiterests of Swift & Co., packers, prominent membersof the Beef Trust He disposed of 20,000 cattle and Joa 1 adds horses with the land. The tal consideration was apprenive; iy $3,000,000. Panama Catal cannot hope to become | anything more than an expense. If! will not meet expenses and it will cost | more than is expected. It will be an | advantage, yes, but an advantage to | European countries and not to us. The idea of the canal being of | great value to us in times of warfare, i since our naval forces can be quickly | sent from ous coast to the other, he! says, is utterly absurd. It would take | days for the ships to get around, and during that time hostile shells could | have done thelr work. Mr. Stevens | believes that it would be a far wiser | plan of defense to put the money that | the canal will cost inte a greater | navy.

There is no objection to Mr. Stevens keeping cousjany with those who went ao wide of the Suez mark. Trustees of Northampton Academy of Music Report Gain of $2000, Northampton, Mass.
