Paint Devbe; it's cb6 cheapest paint s
in the world: never mind the price; it ]
may or may not be more. Less gallons <
will paint the house; and the paint [
will outwear anything. <
Skip wear; you've got to wait, to <
find that out. It oovers more; you t
haven't got to wait to find that ont. <
It's the cheapest of all; no matter
? -about the price.
N. R. Watkins, Lofct, Texas, used 13
gallons on his house before; bought 13
gallons Devoo for same nousa and had

News Notes From Peak.
Peak, March 21 -To-day at 5 o'clock
p. m. is the first mail we haye had
since last Saturday. Without the
whistling of the locomotives our vicinity
is comparatively dead. We
have had a very full river, within 2%
feet as full as our last big freshet. The
railroad suffered a great de*l, many
big washouts, and trestles carried
away, and big force of hands have
been and are still at work repairing.
Damage to bridges, roads, fences andstock
has been very heavy. One of
our ^airfield neighbora (Mr. Tarboro)
lost JO head of cattle out of 21, and
others lost heavily.
I heard the turtle dove and copped
red bird holler this morning, together
with the old familiar note of "gee haw."
The roads are very bad, almost impassable.
Our dear old friend, Luther Mayer,
"whose host at mine house is always
nalAAma 'I has the srood of his neigh
WO<WU4V) ? ^ .
bora, as well as the stranger, at heart
He is dragging the highway and putting
a good distance of roadbed in
good condition. Lather is clever from
his feet to the top of his head, and deserves
credit for the deed.
We fear the settlings from the high
water will canse much sickness np and
down old Broad river.
With regards to the editor and all
connected with the dear old Dispatch.

My appetite was poor and I could not
sleep nights. I had tried different socalled
tonics without benefit I was
advised to try your cod liver and
Iron tonic. Vinol, and I am so glad I
did, for it gave me a hearty appetite,
I soon commenced to sleep soundly,
and I feel strong, well and more active
than I have for years. Every rundown
or debilitated person should
Just give Vinol a trial." K. Allsbrook.
