Humorous. 
There is some satisfaction in know¬ 
ing that a woman can’t wear the bloomer 
without putting her foot into it.— Phila¬ 
delphia Record. 
“ How would you like to be thrashed 
as I am?” complained the wheat to the 
corn. “I would a good deal rather be 
thrashed than have my ears pulled,” 
answered the corn.— Credit Lost. 
First Little Girl: “And isn’t your 
cat afraid of mice ? ” Second Little Girl: 
“ Oh, no ; not a single bit.” First Little 
Girl: “ That’s queer. And she’s a lady 
ca t, too, isn’t she ? ”— Somerville Journal. 
“Who is that old party?” asked a 
slangy young man from the East, who 
was in Kansas. “ Young feller,” spoke 
up the citizen, who had overheard him, 
“ ye’re wrong in your reckonin’. I ain’t 
no old party. I’ve seceded from the 
Populists an’ come out fur baled hay ez 
legal tender for all debts. I’m a new 
party, I am.”— Hay Trade Journal. 
Bobby had been served with a very 
small share of pastry, and he was doing 
his best to smother his resentment of the 
discrimination. “I’m very much afraid,” 
his mother said, “ that this pie needs 
some shortening.” “ Mamma.” said the 
little boy in an audible undertone, “that 
isn’t what my pie needs.” “Isn’t it?” 
“ No’m. My pie needs lengthening.”— 
Washington Star. 
A readiness to apDlogize for an 
offence is not worth much unless it is 
accompanied by a disposition not to re¬ 
peat the injury. Johnny and Jenny 
were quarreling, and Jenny began to 
cry. “Oh, well,” said Johnny, “don’t 
cry—I’ll take back all the mean things 
I’ve said.” “Yes, you’ll take ’em back.” 
sobbed the girl, “ so you can have ’em 
just ready to use over again.”— Youth's 
Companion. 
“ My dear nephew,” wrote Uncle Allen 
Sparks, who was spending his vacation 
down in the country, “ I send you to-day 
a peck of fine, large, juicy peaches, fresh 
from the tree. They are the best I have 
seen this year, and I hope you will 
enjoy them. 
“ Your affectionate uncle. 
“ P. S.—The quantity I really send you 
is a bushel, but there won’t be more 
than a peck of them when they reach 
you. They go by express.”— Chicago 
Tribune.

Cream Separator Patents. 
IMPORTANT DECREES AND INJUNCTIONS IN CENTRIFUGAL CREAM 
SEPARATOR INFRINGEMENT LITIGATION. 
“ALPHA” DE LAVAL PATENTS SUSTAINED. 
T HE De Laval Company, by advice of counsel, begs to announce for the information and further 
caution of all whom the facts may concern, several decisions in its pending Patent Right liti¬ 
gation, of interest and importance to users and intending buyers of Centrifugal Cream Sep.urators. 
On June 18, Judge Coxe, sitting in the U. S. Circuit Court for the Northern District of NewYork, 
at Canandaigua, N. Y., granted a decree, inclusive of a perpetual injunction, sustaining the material 
claims of the “Alpha” De Laval patent, in the suit of The De Laval Separator Company, of New 
York, against an infringer who had been making and selling a cream separator with a separating 
bowl device. 
Following this decision, Judge Wallace, sitting in the U. S. Court at Syracuse, N. Y.,on August 20, 
granted an injunction against John Houston, of Hamden, Delaware County. N. Y., an owner and user 
of an infringing separator, which injunction restrains Houston from the further use of such machine. 
That no one may have reason for complaint at the possible outcome of such further proceedings 
as are pending and as may be necessary in maintaining just and lawful rights and interests as 
regards the manufacture and use of asserted infringing machines other than the ones specifically 
sued upon in these actions, due and repeated caution is again given in this respect.
