LETTER TO JOHN SPEIGHT,
Monticello, Ga.
Dear Sir: You ask how many
square feet a gallon will cover, De
pends on condition of building.
There is a great deal of lving on
this point. The stock claim of ly
ing paints is 300 square feet, two
coats, It's a lie, as a rule,
Devoe covers 300 to 500, our
agents think, We think 300 too low
and 500 too high; though doubtless
they both occur,
How much the other paints cover
s equally doubtful; we guess 100
0 400,
The truth is found in another
irue paint, strong paint, and full
measure, They cover according to
body and measure. You can’t paint
with clay lime chalk and barytes
water or air—no body in them. Go
by Devoe, |
Yours truly

IN MEMORY OF ROBERT BURNEY,
Robert, the bright little son of
Mr. and Mrs. Bob Burney, died
Tuesday morning at nine o'clock, 1
But a few days ago he smiled ina
mother’s warm embrace, rocked
by the beating of her heart, but
oh, how sad! the relentless hand
of death enters the happy home
and bears little Robert to his last
resting place. With aching heart
and eyes bedimmed with tears he
was laid beneath the sod. Loving
hands did all in their power, but
to no avail ; the tender plant so
sweet and loving grew weaker and'
weaker until like a withered flow- |
er drooped and the little life \vusl
ended. Don’t weep fond parents, l
your precious little one is not
dead but sleepeth. '
