A Hull House speaker , complains that, instead of women usurping men's work, men are crowding women out of occupations that belong peculiarly to the female sex, such as dressmaking, millinery, hair dressing, manicuring, etc. But what of it?

It ends in court. It is a sad thing. The council at its meeting Monday evening enacted an ordinance for paving Sophia street and instructed the marshal to rigidly enforce the law in regard to stock running at large and the staking of cattle on streets or lots where they can get to sidewalks, and transacted considerable other business of minor importance.

Remember when in the midst of housecleaning and find that you need a new carpet, or linoleum: for your kitchen, 2 or 4 yards wide, or if you find your window shades in bad shape or your lace curtains worn out,. or that you need a new rug, that you can buy all such goods from us far cheaper, and from a much better selection than anywhere in Plymouth.

Letter to Mr. RockhilL Plymouth, Ind. Dear Sir; You know well It pays to keep your carriage painted, both for looks and to keep out water. It pays as well to paint your barn and your house. We put your barn first, because that is your business your customers see it. You see, there are two good reasons for paint; one is looks, the other is wear. If you paint for looks, the wear will take care of Itself. Paint often for looks; and use good paint for both looks and wear. The best paint is Devoe Ready Paint ground by machinery. It wears twice as long as lead and oil mixed by hand. - H. E, Buck Is Devoe Agent . in Plymouth. . Yours truly, F. W. Devoe & Co. Try The Tribune.
