Aboolutcly Puro THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE Noted Democrat Dead. Frank B. Burke, former United States district attorney, died at noon Monday at the Stevens hospital, Indianapolis. Mr. Burke was very prominent as a democratic politician and was defeated for the nomination for governor by John W. Kern in 1900. He was known all over the state as a speaker of much ability and was a candidate for congress in the Indianapolis district in 1900. He had long been ailing and was operated upon at one time. Letter to Mr. John Bagley. " Plymouth, Ind. Deaii Sir; No man is more interested in the look and A-ear of the paint on the houses you build than you; not even the owner; not even the painter. And painters are sometimes suspected of being more concerned, about the look than the wear. What is your opinion? Which pays best, for a painter to have his painty last three years, or as long as he can? ne can have it last six, if he wants to. Lead and oil lasts three": Devoe Ready PaintN lasts six. Of course, conditions affect the time of both. Most painters know that zinc toughens the lead; some use it. Devoe Ready Paint is thoroughly ground in oil; the proportions are right, and the mixture is thorough. No' painter need mix: be can't afford to. Hand-work can't compete with machine-work. He runs no risk with Devoe. All interests lie in using it; yours, the owner's, the paint's unless he wants his paint to wear half as long. n. E, Buck is Devoe Agent in Plymouth. Yours truly, F. W. Devoe & Co. Eczeyna, scald head, hives, itchiness of the skin of any sort, instantly relieved, permanently cured. Doan's Ointment. At any drug store. fab ami Dresses
