A LITTLE paint here, a touch of
' v enamel there, a brushful of varnish
yonder everyone can see a dozen or
more such opportunities for brightening
and beautifying the home.
Perhaps it's the butside of the house that
needs protection from the ravages of the weather;
perhaps it's a chair, or dresser, the floor or wood
work that has become worn and shabby, or perhaps
it's the family carriage, the farm wagon or the lawn
swing that has ceased to be a source of pride.
CHAS. K. SPALDING LOGGING

unsightly from age and wear, there's an" Acme
Quality paint, enamel, stain or varnish that will

We often what the Canadians blame their "hard timea" on.
They have no tariffs or democrats.
Senator Poimlexter of Washington, after being a democrat,
republican and bull tnooser in turn, has announced that he is now
a republican. The republicans of Washinuton, however, now that
he has returned to their port, will intern him next year and take
no more rhnnces.
Albert Hubbard suggests that the great Powers of the world
"auree to reduce their standing armies to a certain unit per capita,
say to that which the United States possesses." in that case
there might be trouble in the Swiss Army; both of them might
want t be the general. -Wall Street Journal.
