Not so with W. E. N’ankevllle. manager of "Human ! Hearts," which comes to us on next Thursday, Matinee and night. Mr. Nankevllle has always main tained that the best is one too good for the public, and If by any pot; slide rhance he can better his compa nies, he never falls to do so.

The cost of a job of paint depends on the paint— of course, we assume ypur painter ia honest, or. what’s the same thing, that your eyes are good. If you paint with one paint, it'll take 10 gallons—say 10 for ease of reckon ing -that proportion. Paint with another, 15 gallons; an other 20 gallons. Here's a man who has found It out by doing it: Jacob N Hayes, of Rloomtngdale. N Y, used eight gallons Devon on a Jok he had used 11 gallon* of anothet paint on last time You think he saved 6 gallona ot paint $10.50. No. he saved also the wages for painting r, gallons; that'* about S2O more. And that isn't all. The paint that saves six gallons wear* longer than paint that wastes six gal ions.
