other points.
—The piece workers at the Car Works
were discharged for want of work last
week, but some monthly men were re
tained for repair work.
—Some people celebrated their birth
day last Monday for the first time in
tight years, as 1900 was not a leap year,
and bad no Feb. 29th.
—Arsenic intended as medicine for
the pigs, and placed in a baking powder

day.
—March's lamb-like advent was very
agreeable, no matter how the month

- -More flour was shipped abroad from
this country in 1908 than during any

cloee to 20,000,000 barrels.
—The bold, bad men who seem tc
have a hankering for railroad stations

Petrolia station.
—Commission men on the Lake Shore
are now offering $1 per pushel for
ooions and even this tempting price
does not seem to looeen np the market
to any great degree. It is the same old
atory, tboae who agreed to sell when
the price reached $1 are now holding
fast with the expectation of securing
ft. 25 for the crop.
—Competition among the storee in
New York City has become so keen thai
everyone of them employs what they
euphoniously call "price detectives.'
Women are employed to go about tc
the different places and find out what
is being charged for articles of populai
demand, particularly those which at
tract the shopper's eye in the way ol
comparison.
—The hearing of the Injunction case<
against the labor unions haa been fixed
for Friday of next week, the 11th. Aftei
so many years of labor fusees in thit
state it aeems odd that the Supreme
. Court haa never drawn the line be
tween legitimate unionism and con
spiracy, but these cases may have that
result Anyway tLey haye already
been a water-fresh for Sheriff Gibson
whose fees for serving several hundred
papers will aggregate about S6OO.
—One of the moet promising signs ol
spring, is that the youngs
ters have decided that it ia marble time
and are indulging in their favorite
game wherever a clean section of pave
ment may be found. "Commies" are
retailing at five cents per hundred, and
some of the more expert boys at the
game walk around with several pound t
of the marblea in their pockets. The
round spheres seem to be more ornatly
decorated than waa the case years ago,
they are not nearly so symetrical.
—The Emlenton people get their wa
ter from the Allegheny river. They had
it tested in Pittsbnrg. The report sayi
that "the water oontained in one centi
meter (about 1-6 of a cubic inch) 8,500
bacteria." Its quite probable that a
good many of the biggest bacteria goi
away. Compared with Pittsburg, the
Emlenton article ia pure, having only a
fraction of the germ life that sports in
the Pittsburg water. Still, aa a mattei
of safety, our Emlenton neighbors are
cooking the life rat of what they use
for drinking purposes.—Ex.
—A great many people are under the
impression that it takes a long while tc
read the New Testament," remarked a
Kansas City preacher the other day,
"but aa a matter of fact it only requiret
sixty hoars for the average reader tc
read the entire book, or, in other words,
if a man were to read an hour each day
he would finish the book inside of two
months. I told this to a business mac
once, and he said he didn't belieye me.
Thinking it would be a good plan to gel
him to read it, I advised him to try it.
and Ihe result was that he reported thai
he had read everything in it within
forty hours."
—The County Commissioners have
fixed upon Monday of week after next
for the beginning of appeals from the
assessments. The valuation of the
ounty, as a whole, has been raised
about one-half, and is now returned at
(21,751,667, while that of the town hai
been nearly trebled and is now $7,700,"
tW. This is, in part, due to new build
ings, but the valuations of most of the
old residences and of business proper
ties have been doubled. The assessors,
or some of them, seemed to have in
their minds the boom prices of last
year, which are now a thing of the past.
This town is today nowhere near worth
a half of all the rest of the county. The
appeals for Butler borough will begin
*1 Friday. April 22d.

Letter to P. H. Sechler,
Butler, l*a.
Dear Sir: Messrs Leachman & Ede
lip, Grafton, W. V»„ had been selling
a paint, which they thought well of;
and this had occurred.
They had sold a customer 18 gallons
of it to paint his house. A few years
later, they sold the same man Devoe
lead-and-zinc the same number of gal
lons to paint the same house. He had
7 gallons left.
The point of the tale is: 11 gallons De
voe paints an 18-gallon house.
Of course, that isn't all.
Why does 11 gallons Devoe go as far
as 18 gallons of other paint? Because
it is all paint, all trne, no sham, and
fall measure.
But that isn't all. Devoe lasts longer.
No, no; yon haven't got to wait ten
years to find that out. Ten thousand
people know it. We've got their names.
Oar agents know them; they think a
heap of Devoe. There's no difficulty in
showing your townspeople what to ex
pect of Devoe. $lO will paint a sls
noose; and the paint'll last twice as
long.
Yours truly
8 F W DEVOE & Co
P. S. —Patteron Bros, sell our paint.

Judge Jesse Holdom, of Chicago, has

Chicago labor unions that is excitiDg
much controversy in the Windy City.
On the sworn statement of the Dear

lawful acts of intimidation and violence,
the injunction was issued, which, it is
claimed, will render every member of a
labor union responsible for all criminal
acts committed during a fetrike. The
injunction applies also to 45 girl strik
ers, who are restrained from using
abusive language against the employes
of the Dearborn company.

been set up in the complaint, and there
fore the action of the State courts is not

doubt but that the defendants were

The Cure of Crossed Eyes.
Few people realize the importance of
earlv correction of the defect known as
"crossed eyes." Yet there is a simple
test which everybody can make and
which proves conclusively that some
thing shonld be done to remedy this un
sightly and serious malady. Cover the
straight eye with your hand and you
will find that your sight is either very
dim or at least considerably weaker
than that of the other eye. Naturally,
as a crossed eye is never used for vision
and therefore becomes weaker the same
as an arm that is constantly worn in a
sling would finally refuse to do its
service. The earlier this trouble is
remedied, the better are the chances not
only for correction of the disfignrment
but also for improvement of the sight
"My son George," writes, Mr Geo.
C. Aul, of 712 Arch St., Allegheny, Pa.,
was operated for a case of very bad
crossed eyes when he was a triflo over 5
years old. by Dr A. Sigmann. the Eye-
Ear-Nose and Throat Specialist of 804
Penn ave., Pittsburg, Pa. It is now 5
years and his eyes are perfectly straight,
"and have so increased in strength that
he has discarded the use of glasses.

Mrs. James Piznsr, of Worth
township, Butler connty, says: "I have
had a great deal of trouble with my
eyes, and called on Mr. and Mrs. Ma
haffey at the Hotel Lowry, Butler, and
sfUT a careful examination my eyes
were fitted with bi-ocular glasses for
both distance and close work. I wore
them one week and went back, as I
thought they were not right, but Mr.
Mahaffey showed me that my glasses
were perfect, and I had not been look
ing through them right. I now find
my glasses perfect for both near work
and distance, and cheerfully recom
mend any one who has trouble with
their eyes to go to them."
