Dear Sirs: Most mixed paints are ei
ther adulterated or short measure. De
voe Lead and zinc is neither, so it cannot
bo classed with mixed paints. That's
why it lakes fewer gallons of Devoe to
paint a house than it does of a mixed
paint, and it lasts longer for the same
reason.
Furgiison it Thompson's store, Delhi,
N. Y., was painted somo years ego with
thirty-two gallons o1' mixed paint.

A beautiful day and a beautilul i b
servanco of the same was the celebration
ot Mem- rial Day last Saturday. The
streets early took on a holiday appear
ance, business generally being suspended
for the time, and our citizens with their
visiting friends gave themselves up to
the proper and fitting observance of ihe
day. Many lriends came in Irom the
surioiiudiiig country to assist in ami
witness tho ceremonies, which began
promptly ut 1:30 o'cbick in the afternoon.
An elaboiate and elegant dinner had been
prepared by tho W. man's Relief Corps
at their hall for the old soldiers, their
families and visiting friends. What this
band of patriots does it does well, and the
splendid repast was no exception to the
universal rule.
Tho lino of inarch was formed iu front
of tho Po-t Hall and marched around the
square on tho river front, up May street
and lack to Elm, thence to beautiful
fliversklo to-day more beautiful than
ever -where tho pleasing but solemn
Grand Army ceremony of strewing
llowers over tho graves of the honored
dead was carriod out with precision. The
march back to tho court house followed
the completion of the decoration of the
graves, the procession I fcing headed by
the cornet baud, where a most royal treat
was in store for the iinmenso concourse
of poople, and where tho oratoroftheday,
being none less then our own Joseph C.
Sibl.iv, was met by a packed house,
many being unable to find seats. The
speuker was preceded by a number of
pretty selections by the band and a choir
of our btst sinners.
.Vs Mr, Sibley rose to address tho large
crowd of men and womou who had as
sembled to bear him, ho was greeted
with a hearty applause. Every eye was
upon tho graceful orator in the expecta
tion of an iutelloctual feast, aud the pro
found silence, which hovered over the
assembly as be proceeded, was broken
only by repeated applause, and spoke
more elrquently than words of little
Forest's high appreciation of its dis
tinguished member of congress. Tho
address breathed tho scholarly attain
ments and the patriotic fervor of the
statesman, and his Iributo of honor and
respect for tho bravo boys of tho 00's who
bared their breasts to the stw in of battle
in noble defence of their country,
strengthened the ties of friendship al
ready existing between Mr. Sibley and
his constituents.
Among tho many excellent things Mr.
Sildey said, was, that when a student of
history he was of the opinion that all the
doeisivo battles wero won by generals
and other officers of tho army, and it was
not until he had visited tho well known
cemetery at Arlington that tho real truth
dawned upon him, to whom tho greatest
credit was duo. There, upon tho thous
ands of white niarblo slabs containing
tho word, Unknown, is the unwritten
history of victorious armies. To thoso
who composed tho rank and lilo is the
nation indebted, and it is only fitting that
tho nation pay its tributo of lovo to Its
humblo heroes. Mr. Sibley also said
that as ho ncarcd the sunset of life that
which ho will consider tho proudest act
of his Congressional work is his securing
pensions for tho soldiers of tho rank and
11 o.
Surely, Memorial Day, 1!)(W, was a
splendid success in Tionesta, nnd the
occasion will long bo rol'erod to as ono ol
tho most auspicious in thn history of our
town, thanks to tho members ol George
Stow Post and its mostefficicntaiixiliary,
tho Woman's Relief Corps. All honor to
them.
Decoration Services nt Hickory.
Never in tho history of Ell Berlin Post
wero they surrounded by so larco a pa
triotic assembly as greeted them on Sat
urday last. Many tears were seen on all

tho hoys in blue. A very earnest prayer
was made to tho God r f Battles and by us
all for thn perpetuation of our nation and
for His divine guidance in all hearts, by
Rev. Bradley, ol Titusville.
After tho services In the cemetery all
marched to K. O. T. M. hall, whero amid
the music of tho singers and the Post
martial music, all felt at homo. Rev.
Bradley dcliyered an able address,
w hich, though unexpected ou his pail,
was lull of God and patriotism, which
brought tears and aniens from the sou's
of scores of his listeners, after which din

again to order. Singing and martial mu
sic was indulged iu for about one-half
hour to the joy and praise of ail present,
alter which we had tho great pleasure
of listening to our able comrade of the
Ttith Pa. Vols., Rev. B. F. Feitt, of Tio

pictures of those memorable days in Ihiil
U.'i ho touched tho hearts of bis hearers.
Not until our noble President put his

When wo say the addresses wero grand,

Suitable summer lothing will go a great deal toward obviating the
great discomfort of extremely hot weather. "Keep cool" is good ad
vicn, with the temperature above the uiuetieb, but better and more
practical advice is to tell you how.

large and interesting one, of extremely light fabrics, such as flannels,
