'Wanted:
A Painter"
Tornadoes have been known to carry
children a mile.
:
By JANE OSBORN
:
Ufiit, 1818, by McClure Newapuper Syndicate.)
Mr. Bailey sat musing, pipe In
mouth, before the blazing logs In the
open fireplace of the cheerful little
village bouse where he and his young
est and only unmairted daughter lived
together.
"1 don't know," ho was saying, half
to himself and half to his (laughter,
who was correcting "compositions" ut
the Uttle desk at the other side of
the room, "I don't know's Aunt Til
ever did a mean tiling in her life, but
she did more than one fool thing.
Leaving this chimney this way, 'stead
of fixing It so's we could have a stove,
was one, and another thing was having
the house built of clapboards."
Rose Bailey laughed a little. She
was often amused but never In the
least annoyed by her fatner'8 conver
sation and apparent rusticity. "Of
course Aunt Til built the house for
herself. Site didn't know how short
a time She'd have to live ln.lt. I sup
pose we ought just to be thankful that
she left It to us. And as for the open
fireplace, you funny old daddy, no one
has stoves in the living room any
more. And of course for this style of
house white clapboards are the only
thing"
"Don't see that," Insisted the fa
ther. "Now, If she'd had stucco or
even brown shingles the house
wouldn't ever have bad to be painted
except once In a while the white
trim around the windows and doors.
I could most likely do that myself.
But this having the whole house of
clapboard! is foolish. Painters are
getting too much. Blessed if i
wouldn't like to try painting It my
self." Rose Bailey quickly put a damper
on any such enthusiasm to save money.
And she was successful in persuading
her father that he had enough to do
with his chickens. This was his hob
by, but since his retirement from more
strenuous farming and his removal
from the old farm to this house that
had been left to him by his sister
whom he and his daughter both culled
"Aunt TH" it had yielded enough to
provide some of the luxuries which he
might otherwise have regarded as ex
travagances. Mr. Bailey continued his musings
anent the painting of the house off
and on for the rest of the evening.
"We'd best have done It this fall,"
he went on. "Whoever put the first
coat of paint on didn't know enough
to fill up the knot holes. Seems to me
there must have been a scarcity of
putty the year Aunt Til built. Of
course the house Is looking shabby,
but I could stand for that. What I
can't stand is having 11 run down.
If you were left alone and wanted to
sell you couldn't get what the house
was worth out of It because of Its
being run down for lack of regular
paint. Still, painting Is pretty expen
sive nowadays. Blessed If I see how
the painters have the heart to take
their money, let alone ask It. Paint
ing Isn't worth that much."
"That's union wages, I suppose,"
commented Rose. "I suppose there
are men you could hire to paint It for
less and maybe a man like that
would do with you here to give him
direction."
"Oh, sure," commented the father.
"Like as not. Still I wouldn't want
the Job done by any one who wasn't
a genuine painter."
The next evening while Rose Bailey
had another batch of "compositions"
to correct by the light of the new elec
tric table lamp in the living room, her
father began his comments with: "I
forgot to tell you, Rose. And 1 don't
know how I came to forget. I Should
have spoken of it at supper time, but
It slipped my mind. This afternoon
when I was down to the boarding
house with the eggs Mrs. Slmklns
takes four dozen three times a week,
so she must have a good many board
ers I happened to mention what a pity
Aunt Til didn't have the house made
of stucco or brown shingle so It
wouldn't be so expensive having It
painted.
"And I said I kind of had a notion
that I'd get some nonunion fellow to
do It and she looked kind of interest
ed and said that maybe she knew the
fellow. Seems she has a boarder
there now from the city. He's a mile
run down and wants to stay In the
country for a month or so, but siiy
he really can't afford to 'cause It I
so hard to get work down here. Ami
funny thing about It Is he's a painter
I didn't see him, but Mrs. Slrnklns
says he's a nice, quiet-spoken young
fellow. So It occurred to me maybe
we could make a deal with him. We'd
take him In here and give him bis
room and board and not hurry him
with the Job, and like as not he
wouldn't ask much for doing the whole
Job, and with plenty of eggs and gar
den truck now so plentiful, don't seem
that It would cost much to feed trim.
And It wouldn't be a whole lot extra
work, do you think, Rose?"
"Why, no," said Rose, a little du
bious. "If he'd do It, I suppose It
would be all right. Did you speak to
him about It?"
"No, but Mrs. Slmklns Bald she
would have a talk with him and some
thing might come of It."
Rose Bailey went on correcting .pt
English papers and the next Interrup
tion was a knock on the front door.
Rose looked at lier father and gave
her hair a little corrective pat or two,
and her father brushed away the pipe
ashes that hud fallen on the front ol
his waistcoat. Aud then Rose went to
the door.
The young man who presented him
self looked a little surprised as he
entered the room, "1 wonder if this
is the right house. Mrs. Blinking said
that you were interested in my work,
is this Mr. Bailey?"
"It certainly is," assured .Mr. Bailey.
"You're the youug painter she was
speaking about, aren't youV"
"1 am, and my name is John Lewis.
I don't know whether you've seen any
of my work," he was saying, and Mr.
Bailey interrupted.
"Oh, that wouldn't hardly be neces
sary," he said. "1 expect one paint
ing job is pretty much like another,
so long us you know how to mix the
paints and lay It on smooth."
John Lewis looked pu..led and
then he laughed. "I guess you are
about right, though we wouldn't all
admit It. May 1 ask what sort ol
work It is?"
"Clapboards," said Mr. Bailey.
"It'ud be the whole house, and since
it's been white once It might us wi ll
be white."
Mr. Lewis had allowed his gaze to
wander to the face of the little school
teacher at the table. He was study
ing the graceful line from her chin lo
her temple, but at Mr. Bailey's Last re
mark he looked up with a real gasp,
"Oh, I see," he managed to say. lie
again looked at the pretty young
school teucher. "And the bleu was
that I might bourd and lodge here
while I did the work. 1 think 1 would
like that. The country uir would do
me a lot of good. When could 1 stun
in?"
The details of the work were set
tled on and three days later John
Lewis was to be seen standing hall
way up a very long ladder brush in
hand, dipping It from time to time in
a pall tied to one of the rungs of tils
ladder. He often whistled as he
a. uud Mfiti s 'hool hours I e v.u-
apt to come down iioui u.s ...v. ... ....
frequent chats with Rose Bailey.
The three of them Hose, John ami
Mr. Bailey- spent many pleasant eve
nlngs together and meal lime w as B
pleasure to them all. John seemed to
enjoy Mr. Bailey's remarks and Mr
Bailey in turn listened intently to ev
erything that John told him regarding
life In the great city though he spoke
of it cautiously and not often, li
seemed before many days had passed
as if John Lewis hud always been a
member of their household.
"He's a mighty pleasant young
man," Mr. Bailey told bis ilaughlei
one day ; "but 1 can't say I thhik he's
an awful smart painter."
"I'm glad you like him, dad," said
Rose. "1 like John, too, and I may at
well tell you that John likes me. In
fact, he wants me to promise to marr
him, but I'll make no promise wllhoui
talking it over with you, dad."
"Well," said Mr. Bailey, "medita
lively, "I like John a lot. But I'm
wondering whether he could support
you. I can't say he's been real smart
at the painting of tills house."
Fortunately lor Mr. Bailey's peace ol
mind Mr. John Lewis .came Into th(
house ut this juncture. lie had Ho
ished painting lor the duy ami hail
been taking u wulk down the village
Street by way of recreation.
"We were talking about you, John,
said ROM, "I thought we ought b
tell dad and dad said "
"1 didn't mean Just what I said.
stammer d Mr. Bailey. "That is,
John, I was Just expressing the bopi
thai you d be able to support my
daughter decently. I wus Just hoping
you'd be tilde to get enough house
painting to do."
John Lewis laughed and then leaned
down and kissed the hand of Row
Bailey.
"I had better confess," he said. "I'm
a pulnter, to be sure. But not u bOUSt
painter, ."lis Simklns didn't quite un
ilerstund. .Mie told me tbere was
some one interested In my painting
who would Ilk to talk over some worli
and I thought, of course, It was QQ
well-to-do summer people here who
wanted portrait work. I have done a
little portrait work with pretty good
success. But of con se It's my city
street scenes that have attracted most
attention. 1 thought , osslbly some of
you had heard of me. I've worked
hard and been pretty lucky for u man
of my ace. But I had worked too
hurd. I bad lived too close to tin
city anil the doctOTI told me the lies!
thing for me to do was to go to the
country and forget the city for a wblh
I told Mrs. Simklns I was a painter
und she asked me how I was making
out, and I told her I wouldn't be abb
to do much work In the country, 01
something like that. Anyhow, she
must have got the Idea I wus a bouse
painter out of work. And now It has
all ended beautifully. I am quite my
self again, and "
"And you mean you want to marry
my Rose?" asked Mr. Bailey, much
to Rose's confusion.
"I do," said John Lewis. "And In
tidentally, now you know all about un
and the wuy I've been deceiving you,
may I get a real, honest-to-goodness
twelve-dollars a-day house painter to
put the finishing touches on this
house?"

Alcohol and Fuel to Be Derived From
Paper Mill Waste by New
Process.
Waste sulphite liquid that now pours
from paper mills into rivers will be
utilized in manufacturing alcohol and
fuel by means of a new chemh-ul
process recently discovered and thor
oughly tested by chemical engineers.
This announcement, considered one
of the most Important In years in the
paper Industry, will be made before
the cellulose division of the American
Chemical society by Prof. R. II. MeKee,
head of the chemical department of
Columbia university, who was asso
ciated with Dr. Max Kahn, New York,
In the discovery and preparation of
Intarv'.n, one of the two recently dis
covered substances that check diabetes.
"At present, for every cord of wood
used In the paier mills the manufac
turer obtains l.tXX) pounds of pulp and
1,000 gallons of waste sulphite liquor,
Which flows Into the rivers adjoining
the plants, causing death of fish, dis
agreeable odors and other inconven
iences so great that stringent laws
have been passed in some states, nnd
were they rigidly enforced, mills would
have to close down," declared Doctor
MeKee.
"L'lkler the new process this wt'"
liquor will be fermented nnd a good
grado of commercial alcohol obtained.
Then after the alcohol has been dis
tilled off, the residual material will
be evaporated and may be used as
fuel." Milwaukee Journal.

New Sugar Beet Digger.
It Is said that a machine for top
ping and digging lUgar beets prom
ises to eliminate much of the buck
breaking work of harvesting. The
apparatus resembles u potato digger
In general outline, but In front of the
lifts that remove the roots from the
ground is a revolving 0181 twenty
Inches In diameter, so adjusted by a
spring and roller that It measures tbe
cutting distance from the top of the
beet Instead of from the ground. Im
mediately behind the disk are two
lifts thut remove the beets from the
ground nnd deliver them to an end
less chain elevator 'that frees them of
dirt and dumps them out behind the
machine. As the top and head of the
sugar beet contains an acid tbnt
counteracts tho sugar In the rest of
the root, a harvester must measure
the beets and cut them ut tha right
place.
