Kf'seen in earnest, familiar conversa
tion with W. W. Mills, Marietta's
Itjdiiig banker.
And thereby hangs a tale.
jt seems to be a rule of American
public life that a prominent man
!,, tun-? -one intimate friend from
wj.om lio can set counsel and advice.
Wilson had Colonel House, Harding!
bad Kd .McLean. Coolidge has Frank j
tf. Steams. ;
And so law"8 has W. W, Mills.
Mills mivw in nuvance.
Mills, for example, was the only
Ban in the country who knew in ad
vance that Dawes' inaugural speech
was going to dnp a bo mo shall iuEJ
the cloistered precincits of the I'nited
jjtates senate.
Dawes had consulted with him
ibout tiie speech before presenting it.
Mills lud said, "Damn the torpedoes;
o ahead." or words to that effect.
Mills was ul-so on the inside t an
earlier mine thnt Dawes touched off
under official "Washington the time
when be loosed u bit of unexpurgatcd

committee- investigating the doings i
the A. K. F.
"lie did it deliberately," says the
tanker.
Publicity Not Sought.
"His idea wasn't to gain cheap pub
licity. He simply wanted to blow up
the whole pettifogging investigation.
And he -succeeded."
Now it has been reported, by poli
tical writers and others, that Dawes
doesn't want to be a vice-president
ill his life.
It has been whispered, rather loud
ly, that he has one eye cocked on the
White House.
If there is one man in the country
who knows whether Dawes will run
for president, it in Mills.
And if Dawes does run, it is a snc
bet that Mills will be closer to him
during the campaign than any other
man.
But Mills isn't saying.

program for renotation of the White
House this spring affords Mrs. Cool
idge her first real opportunity to
dress the executive mansion up to
her tastes.
Congress has aprpupriatod $o0,i00
for the repair of the house, but nioM
of this will be spent in renovating the
decorations ami furnishings, and prac
tically all of the work will be done
on the first floor in the aeon-public
rooms.
W hile Mrs. Coolidge will have the
choice of materials, it is believed she
will follow custom and retain the
standards in colors and designa estab
lished for these rooms by Mrs. Koose

WASHIXGTAOV, June 17 iP) A
Department of agriculture officials
are hopeful that the next Congress
will authorize continuance of the de
partment's building program begun in
and thus permit construction of
its activities under fewer roofs. At
present the department uses 4"t build
ings scattered to the four corners of
Washington, one of (hem six miles
from the administration office. j
For IMi of the buildings the depart-';
me nt pays rent totalling $1S.'1,."iU0 an- :
nually. For the eight-story structure
housing part qf the bureau of agri- ;
cultural economics and bioljgical Mir-1
vey, $.'t"i.:i(i0 rent is paid, while an-'
other eight-story building used by the
forest service costs iji.'i5.000 yearly, j
The smallest rented building is a
enrpenter shop hidden in an alley in!
the center of Washington and for
which $-70 is paid annually. The shop'

Wilkes Booth is said to have slept
nnd stabled his horse the night before
he shot President Lincoln. The sta-j
ble is used now by the war depart-!
ment. j

The new stucco bourn is not com'
pJcte until it lias been water'
roofcd by a coat of paint. Many
lome owners do not know this,
and fail to give their homes thij
necessary protection.
Why waterproof stucco? Because
it is very porous, and will absorb
moisture unless the pores are
scaled with the proper paint. A
coat of BASS-HUETER CON
CRETE WALL COATING
forms 4 hard, waterproof surface
that keeps out nil dampness and
insures a warm, d ry interior. Old
os well as new stucco buildings
chould be given this protection.

Scvcnty-fivc years apo the pioneer coffee and spice mill of the Pacific Coast
was established in San 1'rancisco by James A. I'olgcr. It was a modest plant,
for in those days most housewives bought green coffee and roasted it them
selves. But James A. l-'olgcr was a far sighted pioneer. He quickly sensed that
high quality coffee roasted evenly and uniformly in commercial quantities
would have an instant appeal to the Western housewife. I Ic was right.
The business expanded rapidly. It grew with the country. The plant at San
Francisco was constantly increased to meet the demand for Folgcr's products
from the Coast States. Then, in 1900, I'olgcr's Coffee was introduced in the
Middle-West and South-West the first I'acific Coast Coffee to be sold liasi
oj the Rockies.
So today in our Diamond Jubilee year it requires three complete plants and
thirty-two distributing stations to supply I'olgcr's products to the retail trade
in 29 states.
On the first package of Folgcr's roasted cofTec was printed this slogan!
"Our Success is Dependent upon Quality." On such a foundation has the
Folger business grown to its Diamond Jubilee year. Quality has carried
through these seventy-five years and must always be in the product before it
is given a I'olgcr label.
That is oiir assurance to the hundreds of thousands of loyal Folger cus
tomers.
