Butler, Pa. Dear Sir: You understand chemistry; how'd you like to earn $100? Devoe lead and zinc—that's the name of our paint that lasts twice us long as lead and oil—is made of white-load, white-zinc, its color, turpentine dyer, and linseed oil. If any chemist finds anything else in this paint, we'll pay his bill and SIOO besides. It's nobody's business what we put in our pair.t. of course: but we want it known. For lead and zinc and linseed oil are the stuff to paint with: and lead alone is not. We want it known that one word de scribes the best paint in the world; and that word is Devoe.

PARK THEATRE. THOMAS JEFFEBSON IN • RII > VAN WINKLE"— Nov. 17th • ■' -■ • / i .-*■ » • •- • ./• • / 1 ; W f * It) ? HI Vrs&S For years American theatre- goers have associated "Rip Van Winkle" with Joseph Jefferson, until one thinks and speaks of the man and the character as one and the same. Now Lhe public has the opportunity of seeing and listening to this old, and thoroughly American, stage production in an eimrely new light. The presentation lw Thomas Jefferson and his comqany is of special interest on account of the exceptional cast. Thomas Jefferson, who takes the part of Rip, is certainly most successful. He has evidently taken his father for his model, but where could he find an other so perfect? When he comes on the stage it seems as if the elder Jeffer son himself was there. His voice is that of his father, and his laugh recalls old association with dear old Rip. His characterization leaves nothing to be desired, and if he is not his father he is as good as it is possible for any one else to be. This clever company will pre sent • "Rip Van Winkle" in Butler, Nov ember 17th. GETTYSBURG. NOV. 19th. The play that will be seen at the Park Theatre is one of the present sea sons successes. The story of the play is told in an intelligent manner, and the scenes and situations possess marked strength. Special Scenery is carried by the Company in order to produce the play in a proper manner, every scene shown on the bill board and in the win dows will be faithfully presented, the play has received the highest praise from press and public wherever it has appeared, and it will no doubt duplicate its former success in our city. Quo VADIS—NOV. 2ist The cleanest and most moral play ever written and a triumph of untarnished art is what is claimed for "Quo VADIS" which is to be presented here on Wed nesday Nov. 21st by the Carpenter Dra matic Company. The play appeals strongly in setting forth a graphic pic ture of the period when the Roman em pire under Nero was at its best. The incidents of thejxx>k are vividly brought out in the drama showing the desperate struggles of the Christians against the despot and his court. The scenes, con sisting of eleven stage sets are striking and beautiful. The flight of the Em peror and the burning of Rome is an im pressive stage picture. The burning of the Christians is also a scene that stirs the audience to the highest pitch of en thusiam. The singing oP the Christians and the prayer and benedictions of the Apostle Peter are solemn and effective, while the original music adds much to its success. "Quo Vadis" as a play has the honor of breaking all records as to receipts and attendance in Chicago, New York and Philadelphia. The company is a strong one and the scenic effect elaborate and of the best. TIN-; PARIS EXPOSITION —Nov. 22nd The Moving Pictures that will be pre sented here in the Park Theatre on the evening of Nov. 22nd under the auspices of First Presbyterian Church, will be given by Mr. Lyman H. Howe's own company. Mr. Howe made a special trip to Europe to secure Moving Pictures of the Paris Exposition and judging from his past success in the moving pic ture world, it is a foregone conclusion that the programe will be the best that money and experience can procure. This exhibition is without doubt the most satisfactory and elaborate in America to. day. Grand Opera House, I'ittsbnrg. For the week of November 10th at the Grand Opera House, Pittsburg, the stock company will produce a comedy that as a laugh producer has never been excelled.
