Something rather new iu Edge field is tho painting of the roofs of J residences. The majority of us hare been Uiankful to get the body of the house painted, and have left | it to the energies of nature io d?c or?t; the coyering, for it is a fact that if left to the tender mercies of the storms that beat, and the rains that pour, and the streaming sunshine, these coverings soon as sume a silver sheen that no artist can rival. Yet, as Mr Johu L Ad dison is doing in Buucombe, it may be mere satisfactory to adorn according to your own taste, and it' is wiser, fdr it is "a stitch in time that st ves nine".
