To do so economically the paint you use MUST have lasting qualities. f Remain jar. |>oor paint costs more than good paint, {or the work has to be done oftcncr. Start right by getting Horse Shoe Faint and you can tnake up your mind it’s on to stay. The reason for this is plain. Horse Shoe Paint is wholly composed of thtf strongest and best materials known in the scienc; of paint making — it contains no cheapening or adulterating materials what ever. It's made of strictly Pure Zinc and White Lead for pigments. Add to this Pur* .Linseed Oil—crushed by the manufa turers themselves to insure its purity — then the necessary drier and coloring matter and you’ve got the best paint that money, brains and material can produce. Horse Shoe Paint has stood the test for 20 long years—it’s a proven paint— and is Sold in almost every town and city in the United States. Should not that fact uioce convince you. that Horse Shoe Paint gives satisfaction beyond question? Horss* Shoe Paint does all we claim—we guarantee it to be pure and to wear. Hors** Shoe Paint is absolutely pur**: you buy it subject to chemical analysis end it s paint that lasts. Pai^ your house with H"»rse Shoe Faint tikis season by all ODENDAHL BROS. DRUG SuJiE A. M.

Very fortunately he escaped without losing his life. C. H. Whitman Very Low Henning Claussen was down from Washington township on Monday and reports the case of Mr. G. H. Whit man. who suffered a stroke of paraly sis some two weeks since, as very serious. Mr. Whitman received the stroke about midnight on Sunday, March 29th, and since that time has been unable to speak or make his wants known. His entire right side is paralyzed and is as helpless as an infant. At times he seems to recog nize those atxmt him hut for the greater part of the time no signs of recognition of any one or anything is visible. Uncle Joe in Clover.

Speaking of a cow with two tails, owned by a Missourian, the Kansas City Journal says: “It is said by the owners that during the summer months when the cows were being w orried by flies and in consequence j gave but little milk, the double-tailed maintained her average. Ordinarily when a cow switches her tail around on one side the flies assemble on the. opposite. This cow was able to switch on both sides at the same time, and this so confused the pests that they ceased worrying her.” We understand a state deputy last week condemned and shot, several horses addicted with glanders, belong ing to B.

S. Leininger. breaking it oft like a pipe stem and tangled up on a hitching post a few feet further, where Mr. Leininger and a crowd of men succeeded in stopping further proceedings. No damage was done to the horses and very little to the wagon, save a broken neckyoke and doubletrees. Altogether it was a fortunate atfair j all around. Bad Booze Backs Boy.
