Established 1?A4 F. W. Devoe & Company New York MR. E. BRADFORD, Cedartown. G,. DEAR SIR:—We have received your first order.and wish to set-down in writing our sense of what It Implies; so you can’t miss It and won't for get it; or, at least, can refresh your memory on It. Devoe Is the paint that takes least gallons and money to do a job; and the job wears longest. This sentence contains the whole fact; dig It out. We’U help you a little. The people round you use paint to preserve and adorn their buildings. You’re going to sell them paint that costs least money and does that best. There are other paints: 200 adulter ted. 8 not. You see, the chance of there being for sale In your town another honest paint is small. If there is, it isn't so strong as Devoe—read paragraph 2 again. For instance: a paint may be pure and honest, not adulterated; but be thin and weak; De voe 8 gallons goes as far as that paint lOorll gallons. $10 or $15 less ‘first cost; wears longer besides. There are several paint-stores in most towns; every store is a center and source of talk about paint ; the talk is an influence; most of the talk is mistaken. You can’t sell Devoe to everyone first time trying. You can sell more than your share; for the facts are nil on your side. What facts? When Mr. A. E. Young paints his house set-down in a hook what paint he used, the gallons it took, the cost for paint, and the cost for lbaor. Next time he will paint Devoe, if you do your part. Have every property-owner in that book. Of course, you won’t wait till he’s made a mistake before introducing Devoe. Get him now if you can. There are ways to almost compel him to buy. For instance, tell hlift: "Paint half of your building Devoe, and half any paint you like any price you like. If Devoe doesn’t take less gallons and cost less money. I'll give you your bill." We’ll back Devoe. Take the risk yourself; that’s how' to do business. We take it from you; there isn’t any, unless in the man. We rely on you to avoid a dead beat there are men to avoid—any decent man may have those terms. Now you see what facts are on your side;; all the facts ther,e are in paint and painting. You see what it means to be Agent. Yours truly, F. W. DEVOE & COMPANY. CITY TAX HOOKS.

The really good man always is bet ter than he knows. The Knock-out Blow. The blow which knocked out Corbett was a revelation to tho prize fighters. From the earliest days of tho ring the knock-out blow was aimed for the Jaw, the temple or the jugular vein. Stomach punches were thrown in to worry and weary the fighter, but If a scientific man had told one of the old fighters that the most vulnerable spot was tho region of the stomach, ho’d havo laughed at him for an ignoramus. Dr. Pioreo is bringing home to tho public a parallel fact; that ♦he stomach is tho most vulnerable organ ont of the prlzo ring as well as in it. We protect our heads, throats, feet and lungs, but the stomach wo are utterly Indiffer ent to, until disease finds the solar plexus and knocks us out.

Why tho "Golden Medical Discov ery’’cures catarrhal diseases, as of tho stomach, bowels, bladder and other pelvic organs will be plain to you if you will read a booklet of extracts from tho writ ings of eminent medical authorities, en dorsing its ingredients and explaining their curative properties.
