Coffee. Letter to T. M. Pace, Cedartown. Dear Sir: Hera's honesty for you! North Dakota has a pure paint law. Prof. Ijadd, the state chemist, analyzes a certain paint labeled“contalns on ly lead ajid zinc and is strictly pure,” and finds it no lead at all, a resin ous oil, and benzine. It Is, however, full measure and contains no water. That’s like the man on trial for killing his grandmother; proved that he didn’t set fire to the house. No lead, but zinc and barytes, res inous oil, and benzine—“sirictly pure lead and zinc paint!” Pure paint is leud-zinc-and-oil; but that isn’t all; there is such a thing as proportion and make. The strong est paint is Devoe. North Dakota is doing a handsome thing in holding these confidence peo ple up to scorn. She gives their name as well as thefr works. Yours tidily 20 F. W. DEVOE & CO. P. S. Polk Paper & Paint Co. sells our paint. Rev. H. L. Crumley, of tile Or phans’ Home at Decatur, will preach at the Methodist church next Sun day morning and at Mt. Hope at 3 p. m.

L. BRANCH, Ohmn. A PaKElrd Author. When Alphonse Duudet brought out "Sappho" an Americun publishing house that issued religious books, uot knowing its chaiacter, offered M. Dau- det a large sum for udvuuce sheets of the work. He accepted the offer, and the advance sheets were sent.. When the publishers received them they de cided that they could uot Issue the book, and they cabled to the author. •‘‘Sappho’ will not do.” This dispatch puzzled Duudet. He consulted with numbers qf friends, and this was the conclusion at which they eventually arrived: "Sappho” in French Is spelled with one "p“—”Sapho." after the Greek fashion. In English It Is spelled with two. An unusually acute frleml point ed this out to Daudet. which much re lieved the novelist, and he cabled back to the publishers. "Spell it with two p’s.” It is needless to state that the published were more astonished at Daudet’s reply than be bad been at their cable dispatch. Man to I11hiu«*. Women ora more prone to deceit than men. From the time when Schehera zade told her lord 1.001 lies to keep the peace It has been the accepted way. And the men. not the women, are the most to blame. It is what they like, and they get it.—Good Words. We live'by reposing trust In each otber-Pliny. Mrs. Lily Burton died Saturday night after a long illness at the home of her parents, Mr.aud Mrs. A.
