A Dew word has come into use in paint ; it is strong. Strong paint is paint as stri Dg as paint can be. Weak paint not so strong. If one paint tukes 10 gallons to do a job and another 15, the 10 gallon paint is the stronger. Itonepaiht wears 10 years, aud another the 10 year paint is the stronger. The strongest paint is the one that take- least gal .oris aud wears longest. But do such differences exist? Yes aud greater. Devoe is the strongest of all. A job that takes 10 gallons Devoe takes more than 20 of some. And a job of Devoe wears several times as long as a job of some p tints. O. E. Perry, East 8th St, Erie, Pa., painted two houses seme time; with two paints same price; took 3 gallous Devoe to 4 of tht other; and in three years Devoe was the better looking job. There are strong and weak paints; we all want the strongest; paint can't be too strong. Yours truly P. W. Devoe & Co. P. S. J. A. Boyd, Mercersburg and Norman O. Huber Chambers burg, sell our paint.

A Narrow Escape Emery Connor, a teamster, of Six Mile Run, accompanied by Guy Wible recently brought a load of goods for Harry Mort who moved to the Ephraim Anderson place and on their return dome, in ctossing Sideling Hill creek at the Gar ringer fording, the water was much higher than they thought when they entered the creek. Wible was on the saddle horse and Connor in the wagon bid when the water raised the bed off the running gears of the wag on and took it down stream with Connor in it crying for help. Aft er traveling about a quarter of a mile it stuck near the middle of the creek and turned over throw ing Connor under, from which position he succeeded in extricat ing himself after considerable ex ertion. Connor stuck to the bed which floated down the stream a considerable distance. Wible who had been following on the bank ran to Frank Madden 's a quarter of a mile distant and pro curingbelp and a rope swam in and lastened the rope around Connor's body and hauled him to shore. He was nearly exhausted and badly used up as he was not used to such rough treatment. Mud, mud, is all the cry. Frank Mort, of Sixmile Run, spent Saturday and Sunday with his parents, J. S. Mort and wiTe. Rev. Daniels preached Ins fare well ser mon at Clear Ridge cbu rch on Sunday. John Wright purchased a fine horse from J. S. Mort, recently. Gumption Down nn the Firm. Timely hint from the Term Journal. There was a young farmer whose name was Brown, He packed up his trunk and he moved to town; There came a panic that gave him alarm, So he packed up his trunk and came back to the farm. A three foot gap cau make use less three miles cf good fence. Just hold on to yourself till the land is dry enough to work with out being lumpy. There are fewer red noses among farmers than among any other class of people on earth. Keep out of the stock market; it is filled with snares and pitfalls and is noplace for an honest man. Steer clear of store debts. They are mortgages on the future, drawing compound interest Don't think you can carry the world on your shoulders. Give the rest of the folks a chance to lift with you. These are the days of spring auction. Make up your mind not to buy anything you do not need, and stick to it like a dog to a bone. Now mind this ! Make two sowings of clover seed, one now and one early in April. Use half red, other half alsike. Do not miss the alsike. Many a man who strongly ob jects to pumping water for a half dozen cows, thinks nothing of sit ting around for half a day pump mg bis neighbors. Look around a little and see if you cannot get some better oats than your own for seed. A change is often one of the most profitable things possible. The frost has been working all winter to throw the grass roots up out of the ground. Beat bim at that game by getting out the roller and going ovor the fields before they become hard and dry. You cannot do much at fixing fences till the frost is out of the ground; but be on hand as soon as that time comes. A little lat er you may have more tnan you can do without fixing fences. If you will first roll then har row your newly-planted laud as soon as you can, you will find that you will s-tve a lot of time and work. The soil breaks far easier than if it is left till it gets dry and hard. Summer Normal. I will open a school at Wells Tannery, April 20, 1908, to con tinue eight weeks.
