HUMOROUS 
“Mary makes good hash, doesn’t she? 
And she hasn’t any receipt either.” “What 
does she make it out of?” “Out of her 
own head.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer. 
His Wife: “Have you had a bad day, 
dear?” The Financier: “Yes, I lost over 
$250,000. And the worst of it is that 
nearly $100 of that was my own money!” 
—Life. 
“What is your preference for the na¬ 
tional plant?” “Well, if the dollar mark 
is to be our national sign, I think our 
national plant should be the mint.”—Bal¬ 
timore American. 
The Rejected: “Do you refuse me on 
account of my poverty or on account of 
myself?” The Rejectress: “Neither— 
it’s wholly on my own account.”—Cleve¬ 
land Plain Dealer. 
The little girl came home from school 
in the middle of the forenoon in a high 
state of excitement. “What is the mat¬ 
ter, dear?” asked her mother. “Jimmy 
Treadway scared me!” “How?” “Why, 
he’s been having the mumps, and he’s got 
some of ’em left, and when I wouldn’t 
give him a bite of my apple, he said he 
was going to take a mump out of his 
pocket and throw it at me!”—Chicago 
Tribune.___

/Am the Paint Man 
QX.C&c**- 
St. Louis, Mo. 
■ AM the paint man. 
I ha"C a tir o way 
■ of mar. u f ac t un n g 
and selling, paints. It's 
unique— it's bitter. 
Before my plan was 
invented paint was sold 
in two ways — either 
ready-mixed or the in¬ 
gredients were bought 
and mixed by the painter, 
oi. ,., u . Ready-mixed paint settles 
on the shelves, forming a sediment at the bottom 
of the can. The mineral in reaay-mixcd paint, 
when standing in oil, eats the life out o. die oil. 
The oil is the very life of all paints. . 
Paint made by the painter cannot bo pr p. iy 
made on account of lack of the heavy mixing 
M y paint is unlike any other paint in the world. 
It is ready to use, but not ready-mixed. 
My paint is made to order after each order .s 
received, packed in hermetically sealed cans 
with the very day it is made stamped on each 
can by mv factory inspector. 
I ship my pigment—which is white lead, zinc, 
drier and coloring matter freshly ground. atter 
order is received—in separate cans, and in an- 
f #*•m 
Back of my paint stands

signed iron-clad Guaran- 
tee.

PF* You Pay Mo Freight to Try My Paint. 
other can I ship my Oilo, which is pure old process 
linseed oil, the kind that you used to buy yea» s 
ago before the paint manufacturers, to cheapen 
the cost of paint, worked in adulterations. 
I sell my paint direct from my factory to user 
at my very low factory price: you pay no dealer 
or middleman profits. 
/pay the freight on six gallons or over. 
My paint is so good that I make this wonder¬ 
fully fair test offer: 
When you receive your shipment of paint, you 
can use two full gallons —that will cover o00 
square feet of wall—two coats. 
If, after you haveused that much of my paint, 
you are not perfectly satisfied with it in every 
detail, you can return the remainder of your 
order and the two gallons will not cost you one 
^ No"other paint manufacturer ever made such 
a liberal offer. 
It is because I manufacture the finest paint, 
put up in the best way, that I can make this 
I go even further. I sell all of my paint on six 
months’ time, if desired. 
This gives you an opportunity to paint your 
buildings when they need it, and pay for the 
paint at your convenience.

This on land, which has cost 
the farmer nothing, but the 
price of tilling it, tells its own 
story. The 
No Repairs. When you roof you r 
buildings with Amatite, your first cost 
covers all cost. After it is put on you 
can forget all about it, for it will require 
no repairs—painting, patching or tinkering 
of any sort—for many years. If your 
Amatite roof costs you $10.00 to begin 
with, the cost ends there. And it is all 
because it is made to wear and does not 
rot, crack or peel off in a few years.

yourself how much better it is than the ordinary kinds.
