How much is it worth a gallon? A gallon saved saves the painting tooi and both together cost $4 or s3—s4 where labor ii cheap: $5 where labor is dear Oar agents in Bridgeport, Conn, Hub bard & Wade Co, tell us: "There are a great many workinginen's houses here. They used to paint lead-and-oil and take ten gallons. We have baen selling them ten gallons Devoe lead-and-zinc, and have had in every instance, two gallons returned." The proportion is often higher than that; we have known it five in ten; but that is exceptional. This is the explanation: Devoe is ground by machinery, and is ground fine: lead- and-oil is mixed by hand, and isn't ground at all. Yourl truly 80 F W Devoe & Co P.

New Jersey, will conduct serv ices in the Episcopal church at the nsual hours next Sunday. People who have made li«ht of the influence of the Mormon church since polygamy was technically abolished must have been surprised by the re ports submitted at the anniversary con ference which met at Salt Lake City the past week These showed that the church is maintaining 20 mission fields and that 1,500 worktrs are abroad seek ing converts. Representatives were present from branches in England. Canada and Mexico, and it was an nounced that stations are maintained in New Zealand, Australia and Palestine. How far these teachers advocate or practice polygamy is not known, but -there is evidence that recruits to this method of life are sought in foreign countries We, the official members of the But ler M. E. Church assembled and on be half of the congregation which we rep resent, do now take pleasure in extend ing a vote of thanks to all members of other churches, as well as to those not belonging to any church, who so liber ally contributed towards the liquidation of "the indebtedness of onr new church building and extend to all such and all others a hearty welcome with us when convenient for them to come.
