HUMOROUS 
A leopardess said to her mate : 
“We may be a little bit late 
For the animal show; 
But really, you know, 
I must see if my spots are on straight." 
—The New Yorker. 
Jack : “Her heart is as hard as glass. 
I’ve little hope of making an impression 
on it.” His Sister: “Why not try a 
diamond ?”—Illustrated Bits. 
Friend: “What was the result of the 
consultation of doctors?” Invalid (glanc¬ 
ing at the receipted bill) : “It left me in 
a very poor condition.”—Tit-Bits. 
“Do you know a good tonic for nervous 
persons, Simpkins?” “No; what I want 
to find is a good tonic for people who 
have to live with them.—Credit Lost. 
Mary Ann. —“I’ve come to tell you. 
mum, that th’ gasoline stove has gone 
out.” Mistress: “Well, lirdit it a^ain.” 
“I can't. Sure, it went out through th’ 
roof !”•—Cleveland Leader. 
Sympathetic Lady: Very sad that 
your husband should have lost his leg! 
How did it happen?” Mrs. Muggles: 
“Why, he got run over by one o’ these 
’ere subtraction engines, Miss !”—Punch. 
“You never hear of the Scadwells’ fam¬ 
ily skeleton nowadays,” observed Rivers. 
“No,” said Brooks. “They have accumu¬ 
lated so many bones that everybody has 
forgotten its existence.”—Chicago Tri¬ 
bune. 
“He : “I think every woman is entitled 
to be considered man’s equal.” She: 
“Well, if she is willing to bring herself 
down to his level, I don’t see why she 
shouldn’t be allowed to pose as his equal.” 
•—Illustrated Bits. 
“What brought you here, my poor 
man ?” asked the priscui visitor. “Aw!” 
replied the convict, “jist fur tryin’ to flat¬ 
ter a rich man.” “The idea!” “Yes, 
I jist tried to imitate his signature on a 
check.”—Philadelphia Press. 
Mabel, who was visiting in the coun¬ 
try, was sent to the barn, where the hired 
man was shearing sheep, to look for her 
grandpa. She soon returned and said: 
“Him ain’t out there, ain’t nobody there 
but a man peelin’ sheeps.”—Chicago News. 
“What is the vermiform appendix?” 
asked the teacher of the class in anatomy 
and physiology. “It’s the little curlicue 
on the inside of you,” responded Willie, 
“that’s all right until you find out you 
have got it, and then you have to get the 
doctors to take it out.”—Chicago Tribune. 
“I love all that is beautiful in art and 
Nature,” she said, turning her dreamy 
eyes to bis. “I revel in the green fields, 
the babbling brooks, and the little way- 
side flowers; I feast on the beauties of 
earth, and sky, and air; they are my daily 
life and food, and-” “Maudie!” cried 
out the mother from the kitchen, not 
knowing that her daughter’s beau was in 
the drawing-room—“Maudie, whatever 
made you go and gobble up that big dish 
of mashed potatoes that was left over 
from dinner? I told you we wanted them 
warmed up for supper. If your appetite 
isn’t enough to bankrupt your poor pa!” 
-Tit-Bits.

A Durable Machine 
To be a permanent benefit a Cream Separator must be durable. The improved 
U. S. Cream Separator 
•will outwear any other. We’ll tell you why : 
All the working parts are enclosed and protected from dust, grit and damage. 
Those moving at high speed run in oil on steel balls, which greatly reduce wear. 
All the steel, bronze and tin used is carefully inspected, and is of the highest 
quality money can buj’. 
Throughout the whole machine the parts are few, simple 
and easy to get at. Each completed machine is put to a 
thorough test before shipped. 
The U. S. Factory is supplied with the most accurate and 
efficient machinery to produce exact duplicate parts, and 
only skilled workmen are employed. 
PRACTICAL PROOF 
But the best proof of durability is what the machine has 
done in actual use. In our “Dairy Separator Catalogue” 
we have printed a few of the thousands of letters received 
from satisfied users. (Some of them have used the U. S. 
for ten years or over.) Their testimony is worth something 
to You. Write for this book now. It will interest you.

BUCKEYE 
Combined Grain and 
FertilizerDisc Drill 
WITH DISC-HOE SEEDING DEVICE 
A BUCKEYE drill that embodies more excellent features than any other drill 
we know of. The double run grain feed is “ as accurate as the sun” and will not 
skip, choke or bunch. The fertilizer distributor, made of glass, is a distinctive 
feature of the Buckeye drills. It will not break, nor rust or corrode from the acids 
in commercial fertilizers. Guaranteed to sow all kinds of commercial fertilizers 
and fine manures, and does not grind the fertilizer into paste. The principles of the 
disc and hoe drills are combined in the ’‘Disc-Hoe” seeding device; the hoe evenly 
and exactly depositing the 6eed and fertilizer in the perfect furrow made by the disc. 
This drill has a dozen other features of sterling merit, and is one of the leaders 
of the famous Buckeye line. It will pay you to examine it at your dealer’s, or 
write us for a complete catalogue of Grain Drills and Cultivators.

THE FAMOUS 
GREEN MOUNTAIN 
SILO 
'i If you are now keeping five cows, buy a Green Mountain 
Silo and keep ten. It will cost you no more to keep the ten 
cows with a Green Mountain Silo than five cows without 
the Silo. 
Green Mountain Silo-fed cows give more milk. That 
means to you more cows, more milk, more money, and twice 
as much profit. The Green Mountain is the very best of all 
silos. Our New Free Illustrated Catalogue tells all about it. 
Write for it. Special discount to early purchasers. Agents 
wanted in unoccupied territory. 
Note: We are manulacturers and dealers in Machinery and Supplies 
for Dairy and Creamery ; also Gasolene Engines, Pleasure Boats, etc.
