George Westinghouse is one of the great men of this Nation, as he is the originator, organizer and responsible di recting head of industries employing 30,000 persons, on whom 75,000 more are directly dependent, and indirectly supporting 25,000 persons in addition to thtffle. None but the German manu facturer Krupp comes to mind as equal ing Westinghouse in industrial im portance.

His manner is as gentle as a woman's, but imperative as becomes a commander; he is as courtly as a gentleman in an Eng lish novel, as precise as the proverbial old maid, and as ready to explain simple facts or technicalities to the stranger in the shops as Andrew Carnegio is to make a noise with a donation.

Sunday was a beautiful day and thousands of people went up to the grounds, and lolled in the woods and grandstand. Monday was ditto aifd the gentlemen horses and cows were seen on our streets on their way up the hill. Tuesday was entry dav and so many horses were en tered for the races that the supply of stable room was exhausted and had to be enlarged A walk around the grounds, that afternoon, showed a number of hand some horses—Shires and Percherons—in their stalls. There are some splendid horses in this county, and the effect is being seen on our etreets." Some of our farmers now drive handsome teams to town; and good horses are as ready sale to day, as they ever were. There were some fine animals in the cattle, sheep and pig sheds. The chicken house was filled with "birds" of all kinds, and then there were some real birds, parrots and pig eons. with rabbity guinea pigs, and white rate, and also a pair of young red foxes, dug out of a hole in the pine tract, last Sprint: Between the chicken-house and Agri cultural Hall there are several side shows, including one that is "morell and refined." In Agricultural hall there is a nice exhibition of plants, but the displays of fruits and vegetables are almost ridicu lous—this on account of the date assign ed to the Association here by the Cir cuit managers being too early for them. However there are a few very nice potatoes, and squashes, and one nice ex hibit of white corn. Near the Hall are splendid exhibits of farm wagons, buggies, agricultural ma chinery, etc., bv Martinconrt & Thom. and Charley Johnston, and also some by , other firms. In Floral Hall the chief novelty is Mr. Hevdrick's displays of gladiolas—noth ing of the kind has ever before been seen in Butler. The colors must be studied to be appreciated, and properly combined for effect. A bouquet of gludiolas and water lilties is the hand somest that can be made. Then there is the usual wilderness of fancy-work, paintings and other works of art, and some advertising displays. An abundance of water is provided on the grounds, also all conveniences. There are lemonade stands without number, also some catch-pennies and several good restaurants. The ladies of the Grace Lutheran church have the large restaurant in the grove, this year: they set up 180 dinners, Tuesday, twi'.-e as many yesterday, and will probably provide several hundred to-day. as they are amply prepared to do so. The grounds of tbe Butler Driving Park & Fair Association are splendid and will improve year by year. The view of Butler from the top of that hill is magnificent—this is the liveliest and best town in the United States-but its people do not appreciate being hauled naif way up that hill an l then being compelled to walk the rest of the way. That street-car track should run around the hill and into the grounds. The race program ia being carried ont; and there is a bigh-jnipping ex hibition each day, bnt our hosey mau has not yet made his report. Letter to Eisler-Marclorf Co., Butler, Pa. Dear Sirs: The easiest business in this world is dry-goods; the reason is: your customers want your stuff as much as you want to sell iti they come-in; you show it and sell it. That's the whole bnsiness, except your buying the goods Devoe comes next. It saves money, and people like money. They like some body else's more than their own; they like to make it more than to save it; they like to keep it perhaps as well as to make it Buildings run-down fast, without paint; poor paint is the same. Devoe is the means of stopping that leak; a big one. All we've got to io. to sell Devoe. is to show that a man saves money by using it. £I) Jewell, Corry, Pa. painted his house 5 years ago with a mixed paint; 14 gallons.
