LETTER TO MR. JAS. DUCK,
NEWPORT, ARK.
Dear Sir: Here’s a bully one.
Mr. Dooley (not of Chicago)
painter, Lancaster, N. H., got
the job of painting the Episcopal
Parsonage. He was used to a
paint as pure as Devoe, but weak
and short measure—he didn’t
know it was weak or short meas
ure. Dooley surveyed the job
and said it would take 20 gallons.
Mr. L F Moore, our agent, of
fprorl crivp 1fl crnllrms Dpunp
Accepted of course.
Eleven gallons did it; the ten
plus one.
Mr Moore isn’t painting par
sonages on shares this year!
Yours truly

“THE LITTLE HOMESTEAD.”
Theater goers will anxiously
await the coming of “The Little
Homestead” to the Newport
opera house on Thursday even
ing. The play introduces a hap
py little home in a New England
village, broken up through the1
desire for revenge upon the
young husband. It tells of a
blind infatuation which leads the
wife to forget her vows and
depicts the sorrow and remorse
consequent. The ultimate tri
umph of right, though too late
t) atone fully for the past,
points to a healthy moral. The
play and company are among
the best on the road this season.
The author of “The Little Home
stead” is W. B. Patton, whose
play “The Minister’s Son” has
been an unequaled success.
