OPEN DEALING IN PAINT. Semis — proverbial buying of a “pig In n poke.” Mixtures in which chalk, ground rock, ete., predominated were Lead,” the deception not belng ap- parent until the paint and the paint. ing were paid for, still practiced, but we have to expose it easily. National Lead Company, the larg- est makers of genuiné Pure White Lead, realizing the injustice that was being done to both property owners and honest paint manufacturers set about to make paint buying safe. They first adopted a trade mark, the now famous “Dutch-Boy Painter," and put this trade mark, as a guar- anty of purity, on every package of their White Lead. They then set about familiarizing the publle with the glow-pipe test by which the puri- ty and genuineness of White Lead may be determined, and furnished & blow-pipe free to every ope who would write them for ft. This ac tion was in itself a guaranty of the arity of National Lead Company's 'hite Lead. As the result of this open dealing the paint buyer to-day has only him- self to blame if he is defrauded.

At low tide, in midsummer, on rertain parts of the Breton coast, men and boys with baskets and hoes descend the white beach to the sea's sedge. They are anglers, but the fish they seek live on dry land. With his hoe each fisherman makes swiftly in the packed sand shallow parallel trenches very close together and about a yard long. If the luck be good, every scratch of the hoe uncovers three or four silvery fish, the size of sardnies, that leap up glittering into the air. They must be seized quickly, or at once they bury hemselves in the sand again. They are called lancons. The smaller ones are used for mackerel bait; the larger make, fried, an ex- cellent dish, a good deal like fried smelts. With daylight tides the lancons are seldom bigger than a man's mid- ile finger; but with the night tides, when promenaders have not dist ed the sand, they run large indeed. Then, their lanterns flashing on the beach, the Breton fishermen often capture lancons a foot long.-— Phila- delphia Bulletin. THIS AND THAT is urb- Too much the root of a lot of evil.

In the good old-fashioned days of our grandmothers they relied upon the roots and herbs of the field to cure discase and mitigate suffering. The Indians on our Western Plains to-day can produce roots and herbs for every ailment, and cure diseases that baffle the most skilled physicians who have spent years in the study of drugs. From the roots and herbs of the field Lydia E. Pinkham more than thirty vears ago gave to the women of the world a remedy for their pe- culiar ills, more potent and effica- cious than any combination of drugs, Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is now recognized as the heii remedy for woman's ills. Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 515 N.C.
