Itoports published In this Issue,

had nnd probably will for many
months enjoy a rojuvonntlon on ro
bust lines at some points n restora
tion to nnd increase of Us best ac

en as tho higher prices of metal and
paper.
Low grndo lumber Is responding In
demand and prices In tho sections
first affected nnd tho influence) prom
ises to cxtond. Tho wooden con
tainer is coming back to ltB own nnd
In Instances is reaching n plane bet
ter thnn Its previous best; and vood
eu contnlnors In most cases aro made
of low grndo hard or soft woods. The
extraordinary demands upon tho iron
and steel 'manufacturers and upon
manufacturers of Ilbro demands
that aro n direct outcomo of tho Eur
opean war nnd that thoy aro increas
ingly unablo to meet and tho con
sequent higher prices for thoso ma
terials automatically throw them out
of consideration as materials for box
making, nnd shippors of manufactur
ed product must turn to tho logical
container, tho wooden package, what
ever their inclinations or prejudices

Tho results hold promise that thoy
will not bo merely temporary. Should
tho direct Influenco of this condition

And so low grndo lumber makers

town. From the car window could bo
seen a dozen or more ba"k yards.
Heaps of lofuse won? scattered over
tho weedy ground. Herd nnd tlicru a

1 The houses were dull. Uninteresting
nnd In bad repair. A couplo of listless
men boarded tho train ami snnk into
their seats, apparently thankful to be
leaving tho place.
An hour later they npfroached an
other town. There was no dismal out
look there. The onck yards woro car
peted with closo cropped grass and pat
terned with uower beds. Fresh paint
ed whlto fences separated the lawns.
Most of tho houses had been recently
painted.
"Is this tho county seat?" tho cltlren
asked tho conductoi.
"No; thnt last town is the county

Is going to be. That other town hasn't

WHAT PAINT WILL DO.
Adds to th Apprne and Valu of
Hout.
Ask any real estate man what pr
etntago of value Is added to a house
by a fresh coat of palm nnd you will
bo surprised at tho size of the figure he
will give you. Too rauny householders
bavo the habit of putting off painting
until a house fairly screams for It.
nnd they perhaps figure thnt tbey are
economizing. Not so
Good paint applied at regular inter
vals, uot too far apart, is the tru econ
omy in that it not only actually raises
the value of the house by Improved
appearance, bnt through preservative
Ingredients prevent and arrentj" do
cay. The man who lata his bouse become
an eyesore In an otherwise well kept
locality should be taxed for tbe heavy
damage he Is doing to that community.

vTuxedo Nights
by Walt Mason
When the day's work's clone, and the good old sun
has sunk in the well known West, then I stretch my
form by the fireside warm, I sit at my ease and rest.
Then I take my pipe which is mildly ripe, as the pipes
of good smokers are, with a chortling soul then I fill
its bowl from my glass Tuxedo jar. And I smoke at
ease, and my trouble flees to
the place where dead troubles
go; and my worries seem, in
my waking dream no longer to
have a show. And I say, "In
deed, it's a noble weed that
drives all tho ghosts away, and
clamps the lid on the cares
that skid around through the
busy day. The worries and
woes nnd such things as those
in the daytime leave their scar, but there's rest at
night and a calm delight in my
glass Tuxedo jar." 'CbatijAi
