Why then buy an inferior Paint just because it costs a few centw per gallon less than a well known first-class brand? That ill folly, for a cheap paint is made of poor material apd seldom lasts more tb«n a year or two, whereas a good, one should wear for five years at least. Our Crown Cottage Colors will not chalk peel or scale and in covering capacity and durability is superior to the majority of Paints made including White Lead and Oil.

HOW TO CURE BED WETTING Ther* are thousands of children whe K&rcely know what it Is to awaken In the morning trithont a sense of mortification. These children are not responsible for the diseases of the bladder or kidneys that make their lives miserable. It Is a moral crime to scold or whip a child who las lost control over th© mnscles of the legs and cannot walk properly and It Is cruelty to punish a «MM wte has lost control over the bladder. Train the child to amply the bladder Just before going to bed and In two hours afterward take the child out of bed to again empty the bladder. This Is easier than changing bed clothea every day, and encoorages the little one. Give frequent baths, and allow plenty of outdoor exer­ cise. Avoid scolding, and prohibit tea, coffee and highly seasoned food. Give Foutr's KIDNEY CUBK; allow only a light supper and no fluids within two hours of bedtime. J. W. 8HOTTP, of MoKeaaport, Pa, saysi "FOLEY'S KIDXXT CUBB oared my tittle boy of urinsry trouble; I tried several physicians with no snccesa. Foun*a KIDNKT CURB was recommended, and before one bottle was used he was cured and now he can sleep all night without any trouble." c FOLEY'S KIDXBY CUM will prevent fatal kidney and bladder troubles and will always cure them If taken early.
