LETTER TO DR. J. H. STU
DER, NEWPORT, ARK.
Dear Sir: We manage to* get
some fun out of paint. J. H.
Kohlmeyer, Grove City, Pa., put
in Devoe. Along came a sales
man of somebody else’s paint
before ours had got there. Sales
man said ours was short meas
ure, Kohlmeyer weakened, hung
fire and flopped; stopped ours
and took his.
It was our turn now. We
emptied our can into his and his
into ours. The short measure
was his, not ours; and we kepi
our man.
And ever since then that paini
manufacturer gives full measure
his paint is not pure, but his gal
Ion contains four quarts.
Go by the name; and the nann
to go by is Devoe lead-and-zinc
Yours truly,
F. W. Devoe & Co.,

REGARDING MEN AND WOMEN
According to a Woman Writer X(Q
Are Loyal and “Easy to Get
Along With.”
Various apt, incisive comments ma4e
by Gail Hamilton almost half a century
ago on "Men and Women” are in most
respects equally full of force to-day,
with all the vaunted progress woman
has made, says the New York Tribune.
"Men are strong; they do things, and
don’t mind it,” admits this vigorous
woman writer. “They.can open doors
in the dampest weather. They can un
strap trunks without breaking a blood
vessel, turn keys in a moment which
women have lost their tempers and
lamed their fingers over for half an
hour; look down precipices and not be
dizzy. . . . You may strike them
with all your might on the'chest, and It
doesn’t hurt them In the least (I mean
If you are a woman.) They never grow
nervous and cry. They go upstair*
three at a time. They put one hand
on a four-rail fence and leap tt without
touching. In short, they do everything
easily which women try to do and can
not.
“Moreover,” continues this commen
tator, “men are so ‘easy to get along
with.’. They are conveniently blind and
benevolent. Women criticise you, not
unjustly, perhaps, but relentlessly.
They judge you In detail, men only Ih
the whole. If your dress is neat, well
fitting and well toned, men will not no
tice it, except a few man-miliiners and
a few others who ought to be. If you
will only sit still, hold up your head
and speak when you are spoken to, you
can be very comfortable. I do not mean
that men cannot and do not appreciate
female brilliancy, but if your are a good
listener and in the right receptive mood
you can spend an hour very pleasantly
without it «
“But a woman finds out In the first
three minutes that the fringe on your
dress is not a match. In four she has
discovered that the silk of your sleeves
is frayed at the edge. In five that the
binding of the heel of your boot is
worn out By the sixth she has satis
factorily ascertained what Bhe suspected
won •
that you trimmed your bonnet your
self. The seventh assures her that your
collar is only 'Imitation;' and when yon
part, at the end of ten minutes, she has
calculated with tolerable accuracy the
cost of your dress, has leveled her men*
tal glasses at all your innocent little
subterfuges and knows to a dead cer
tainty your past history, present cir
cumstances and future prospects. Well,
what harm If she does? None In par
ticular. It is only being stretched on
the rack a little while. You have no rear
son to be ashamed.. Your boots are only
beginning to be shabby, and we all know
the transitory nature of galloon. Your
fringe is too dark, but you ransacked
the city and did your best, ‘angels could
do no more.’ You trimmed your bonnejt
yourself and saved two dollars, which
was just what you intended to do. Your
lace is not real, according to the cant of
the shopkeepers, but it is real—real
cotton, real linen, real silk, or what
ever the material may be, and you
never pretended it was Honiton or
point ...
“But if men, In their strength and
courage and Independence, are enviable,
men in their gentleness are irresistible,''
concluded the writer. “You expect g«n
tleness in women. It is their attribute
and characteristic. You do not admire
its presence so much as you deplore or
condemn its absence. But manly ten
derness has a peculiar charm . . .
and you meet it everywhere—in the
! house and by the wayside in
city and country, under broad
cloth and homespun. You may
travel from one end of the country to
the other, and meet not only civility
but the most cordial and considerate
kindness. You may be as ugly as it is
possible for virtue to be. and tired and
travel-stained and stupid, and your
neighbor of a day will show you all the
IIHIa nftAntmna vnn oaiiM a ?m frnm •
j father or brother or husband. . . .
; Women would better Improve the
! rights they have before going mad after
others they know not of. If men will be
so good as to do the law making, and
stock jobbing, and bribing, and quarrel
ing and stump speaking, I shall be great
ly obliged to them. . . . Am I en
; thusiastlc over this involuntary out
i gushing of the stream of kindness which
I flows so continually from men to us
ward? I have a right to be. A nation
! of men loyal, not to grace, beauty, mag
nificence, but to womanhood, to the
highest impulses of human nature, to the
love element of the universe, is a thing
to be enthusiastic about”
The Picture Hat.
”1 witnessed an amusing Incident at
one of the local theaters the other
evening,” remarked the theater-goer.
“A woman, wearing a large picture
hat, was seated directly In front of an
elderly man, who was straining bla
i neck in an endeavor to see what was
I happening on the stage, and, of course,
j It was only possible for him to see but
I one-third of the performance.
“The second act had begun, and 1
could plainly see that his anger was
Increasing. At last, when he could
stand It no longer, he lightly tapped
the woman on the shoulder, and, Jn as
gentle tone as he possibly could mus
ter, said:
“ ‘Madam, pardon me, but I paid two
dollars for this seat, and your hat—/
” ‘My lsat cost $25, sir-r-r!’ came the
haughty reply.
“The conversation was at an end."

SHERLOCK HOLMES AGAIN.
A New Series of Detective Sto
ries in the Kansas City Star.
Conan Doyle’s detective sto
ries, with the marvelous Sher
lock Holmes as their hero, have
achieved the greatest success of
recent years. Appreciating this
fact, the publisher of Collier’s
Weekly, New York, induced Mr.
Doyle to write a final series of
the great detective’s adventures.
Repeated refusals were followed
by increased inducements, and
finally Mr. Doyle agreed to write
thirteen stories for $45,000, or
about 60 cents a word. The en
tire correspondence was by ca
ble.
The amount paid by Collier’s is
the largest ever paid for such
work and does not include the
right to publish the stories in
book form. By special arrange
ment with Collier’s these famous
stories are being printed in the
Kansas City Star, one story each
week, beginning in the daily
edition of Saturday, February 11,
and in the weekly Wednesday,
February 15.
None of the present popular
features of the Star will be cut
down or omitted to make room
for this remarkable set of stories.
Practically the contents of a $1.50
book will be added to the con
tents of the Star in three months
without any increase of the sub
scription price, 10 cents a week
tor the daily star, ^morning,
evening and Sunday, 13 complete
papers a week) and 25 cents a
year for the weekly Star.

Life a
Burden
There are times when life
seems a burden—when you are
tired, worn-out, have dull pains
in the head and a continual
feeling of uneasiness. You
have no appetite, and your di
gestion is poor; your sleep
broken, and you get no rest.
Little annoyances seem great
mountains of trouble, and you
are blue, melancholy and given
over to gloomy forebodings.
This means low vitality—ex
hausted brain nerves.
For this condition Dr. Miles’
; Restorative Nervine is a spe
j. cific ; it is a food for the nerves,
j It builds up the nervous sys
! tern, and restores lost' energy.
Try it to-day and see if your
sleep is not sound and refresh
; ing, and the morrow brighter
and more hopeful.
"I am glad to announce that I have
j recovered my health, as far as my
advanced age will permit, as I am 82
years old. My case was very bad;
my nerves were all shattered. I suf
i fered much pain and coldness; was so
•weak ami felt so sad and lonely and
heart-broken. When I commenced
taking Dr. Miles’ Remedies I was com
pletely prostrated. I have taken the
Restorative Nervine. Heart Cure and
Verve and Liver Pills, and they cured
me.” MRS. E. C BAWLBY,
Waterloo, Ind.
Dr. Miles' Nervine Is sold by your
druggist, who will guarantee that the
first bottle will benefit. If it fails, he
will refund your money.
