the army. His passport away from the
country cost him 30, and he was ad
vised not to coma by the Russian author
ities who told him that the Americans
were starving to death because of a fam

PAINTING
THE ROOF
Many people put off painting their roofs until they fjjj
are covered with moss, thinking no doubt, they are (tj
practicing economy when really they are permitting a
good roof to go to pieces for the want of a few dollars SJj
worth of paint. pvj
From our experience we are satisfied there is no
paint quite so good for roof as Sherwin & Williams
Creosote Paint, but on account of the price ($ 1 .25 per jpl)
gallon; many people think they cannot afford it; and for Stf
those people who want something that will wear well, at
a low price we have secured the famous Trinidad Roof
Paint. It is a brilliant black, is eauallv stood for tin.

square feet of tin, iron or smooth wood. We are making a special price of 80 cents
per gallon to introduce this paint.
