TRAVEL OVER 1,000 MILES THAT there is demand for a paint especially adapted to Porch Floort ii proven by the large number of people who' use, with more or less unsatisfactory results, paints intended for interior floors only. A PORCH PAINT should dry hard and tough; it should be elastic, to overcome the effects of the widely varying temperatures to which it is snWected. and to resist wear; it should have good water-proof qualities, and its colors should be permanent, PORCHITE lacks none of the essen tial qualities of a superior porch paint It is made in eight well-chosen shades. One gallon of PORCHITE will cover 350 square feet, two coats, on an average surface. Two coats are necessary for a good job. Put up in quart, half -gallon and gallon cans. B. F. Allen & Son.

A cable di patch to the Herald from London says: More remarkable than any feat of aerial navigation on record is the bal loon trip to be made from London this week by Prince Jaime of Bourbon and Joef von Kenvin, a lieutenant in the Austrian army. It now develop that the aeronauts will attempt to cross the Baltic Sea to some point in Austria, covering the dist ance of approximately one thousand miles. The expedition, is without parallel, the nearest approach to it being the voyage made by Comte de la Vaulx, from Paris to Kieff, in Russia, during the Paris Exposition. The start is to be made from the "rounds of the Austrian exhibition to day if the wind hold right. Baron von Kerwin explained last night that the balloon will be inflated with pure hydro gen for the purpose of making greater headway,"' lie -aid, "in pite of the fact that it is quite dangerous. We will carry enough provision to last forty-eight hours, life belts and a quantity of grea-e, the same as Holbein used in swimming the i-hanm-I, in case of an ac cident in crossing the sea. "The balloon and its equipment weighs 9u0 pound-, the ballast 1600, while the human weight will be 300. The ascent will be made any day this week when the wind is blowing from the north or northwest." The trip is planned in the interest of the Austrian government. Baron von Kerwin has made 1000 as cents and 300 voyages during the last ten years. He is the head of the balloon department in the Austrian army. Prince Jaime is the son of Don Carlos of Bourbon, who, through his position as head of the Bourbon-Anjou family, claims the right to the throne of Spain. FISHER BROS., CO., Sole Agents.
