LETTER FROM THE WEST.
Chickasha, I. T., Jane 7, 100:>.
Dear Ed.tor:
This is an inspiring thought, this
good Sabbath day.
Enthusiasm has prompted this f.e
ble pen. The sad ail p'ewaut memories
intermingled bring about 'an
everlasting consolation which time
cannot efface. As the days g) by we
are still more mindful of the post and
to know what fortunate mortals we
are. How will we have escaped the
ravages of time, and how pleasant to
be so situate 1. Forly-tw > yeirs ago
we made our first step to marshal
music; then yot in our teens, lint i
Father Time has dealt kindly with i
ns. The feet that made tho quick i
step in those early da; a of our life
have gmvn older and slower; though
many of them are still active ami full <
of life. (

New Orleaua our ride through East
Texas gave a fiue view of both eec ?
tiona of that great State. Back Ja nl
and rolling prairie, pino ilills, nice |
little farms, fruits and vegetables
Nest inorniug being Sunday, the
king of day broke forth his brightest
rays oa our rattliug ride through
North Louisiana, that beautiful laud
of flowers; the lovely cane and nice
farms, the most fertile on Gil's green
earth. While we enjoyed that morning
ride so much; still siduess ruin
glea with pleasure. As we sped along
overlooking that great sopo of oa - J
try still being overflown from one of
the breaks in the levee of the Mississippi.
That was a melancholy sight
to see the great sugar houses standing
in water and not a living soul about
the premises; no sign of life, not even
the chirp of the birds. Oar train
ran Blowly along over th's pirt of the
country giving ample time to view
this sau scene. The breaking of the
levee has cost many thousands of viol- | ,
lars, not only the ti'ablo la ids, but
the sum of $150,000 had been pai l
out in trying to stop i'. Here sorrow
mingles w.th p'easure again, lout
pleasure overbalances the Borr nv ar.d
we move on serenely, and all is lov ly.
And as we meet the boys on the wiy i
who are pissing from cir to cir lo>k
ing for some of his old c ymradei whom 1
he had not seen since the war closed.
Oh how thess big hoarted men wou'd .
clasp the hand of oach other, "And
now are you Jobu? < i <1 bless you, 1 i
am 80 glad to see you. We have not I
met sines wo parte! at Appomattox."
Oh what delightful experiences tlnse i
are at this lato day, and many are j
ssch at these great reunions. Wo ar- i
rivod at onr dts'inatiou about 10 a. <
in. There we finally realizsi that ]
the Mississippi river has the proper (
name. I stood on the ferry boat and j
with a c ireful glance of the eye saw j
that the rivor's surface is above
the general landscape of the country.
The tops of the houses in the town of
Algiers are neirly on a level with the
water in the river.
We took special notice that the
levee had been broken at this particuhir
place. i>at short notice and
rjuick action with plenty of sand bags (
stopped the break hilhre much dam- ,
age was done. When cross the river r

every man who espouses the cause
fbr which so many gave their life's
blood should visit this no'cd place.
But our stay was a little short. The
opening hours on Sunday being less
than week days, though I made good
use of the time. I copied Gen. Ben
Butler's general order No. 28, which
I will give in the future if I live.
All the sight seeing by daylight
I thought to make the time good and
profitable. A sermon by one of the
city's noted divines would be helpful,
so I went to hear the son of one of
eur great and good men who has
gone to his reward. Dr. l'almer was
one of the noblest of his days. Wo
had heard him in our reunions and
thought he was above the average
speaker. But he has gone where
sorrow can never come.
After services we beat a hasty retreat
to our room, there to get a good
nights rest and be ready for the next
day. Monday morning found us
hale and hearty and to get the most
of our time and money's worth, wo
started out early. And then began
the great reunion. Our old comrades
by 10 o'clock were arriving in the
city and from every point of the
compass. And at every turn of a
corner greetings of the very warmest
nature. The ohl battle scared vet.
crans actually hugging and great
dro| s of tears of joy running down
their furrowed checks. General rejoicing
was the order of the day. <
And as to your huuible servant, I
shed tears too, and had a genuine J
love feast from Monday until Friday".
God bless these old Rebel soldiers,
may they all enter in at the straight 1
gate. The old adage says, "self

Dear Sir: Most mixed paints are either
adulterated or short measure. I)evoe
Lead and Zinc is neither, so it cannot be
classed with mixrd paints. That's why
it takes fewer gallons of Devoe to paint
i house, than it does of mixed paint and
it lasts longer for the same reasou.
Fergi son & Thompson's store, Delhi,
N. Y., was painted some years ago with
thirty two gallons of mixed paint..
Painted it last spring with Devoe l^ead
and Zinc?thirteen gallonsdtd the work.
Devoe I^ead and Zinc is here or will lie
here very shortly. Spread the good news
