“Can’t I sell you a painless corn cure, 
madam?” said the peddler. “No, you 
can’t!” snapped the woman of the house, 
“I have no painless corns.” Then the 
door was shut with a sudden slam.—Chi¬ 
cago Tribune. 
"If it were not for my wife,” growled 
the first man at the reception, “I wouldn’t 
he here.” “Neither would I, dog-gone it!” 
replied the other man, ‘if it were not for 
my wife. I’m the hostess’s husband.”- 
Philadelphia Press. 
Mrs. Lomas : “I don’t see what she 
wanted to marry him' for; he has a cork 
leg, a glass eye, a wig and false teeth.” 
Mr. Lomas: “Well, my dear, you know 
woman always did have a hankering after 
remnants.”—Credit Lost. 
Elder Keepalong : “Discouragements 
are only temporary. We can do anything 
if we have faith.” Deacon Ironside: 
“Yes, anything except makin’ a success of 
raisin’ squabs. I’ve tried that, elder, and 
I know.”—Chicago Tribune. 
“Out of a job, eh? Well, come around 
to the factory at seven in the morning 
and I’ll put you to work.” “I can’t come 
to-morrow, sir.” “Why not?” “I’ve got 
to be in th’ parade of the unemployed 
that takes place to-morrow.’—Houston 
Post. 
The Senator from Wisconsin had re¬ 
solved to send to prison for five years any 
who accepted a pass. Another Senator 
was observed to figure rapidly. Conclud¬ 
ing his calculations, he addressed the 
chair. “Sir,” he said, “the scheme is im¬ 
practicable. It would put me in the hole 
about 500 years annually.” This seemed 
to be the expression of a general senti¬ 
ment.—Philadelphia Ledger.

no painting, coating nor repairs. 
This seems almost incredible, but such 
is the case. 
Once properly on your buildings (and it 
is so easy to lay that any man can do the 
work), you can absolutely forget about it. 
The rain may fall in torrents, but it 
will not be necessary for you to worry nor 
make temporary repairs, as on shingle, tin 
or ordinary ready roofings. 
If a storm blows up at night you will 
have no need to think about leaks nor dam¬

Gasoline Engine 
Superiority 
When a man invests in a farm power, he 
owes it to himself to get the best that can 
be bought for the money. 
The modern business farm can no longer 
be successfully operated without a power of 
some kind. 
The best, most economical, and safest 
farm power is a gasoline engine. 
The best engine is the 
I. H. C. 
6asoline Engine. 
Why? Well, because it’s so simple, easily 
kept in order and operated definitely. 
It developes the full rated horse power 
and sustains it against the heaviest load. 
It is safer, cheaper and more efficient than 
steam power. 
It is adaptable to any and every use re¬ 
quiring a power. 
Among its many uses may be named: 
Shelling, Husking and Shred¬ 
ding Corn; Grinding Feed; 
Cutting Dry Fodder and En¬ 
silage; Pumping; Sawing 
Wood; Separating Cream, Etc. 
I. H. C, engines are made in the following 
styles and sizes: 
Vertical, 2, 3, 5 Horse Power. 
Horizontal, Portable and Stationary, 4, 6, 8, 
10,12,15 Horse Power. 
If interested in powers in any way, go to 
the International Local Agent and have him 
show you the I. H. C. gasoline engine, and 
supply you with catalogues, or write for 
further information.

NEW AMERICAN TOOTH CULTIVATOR 
Test It on Your Own Farm 
fora FULL MONTH 
Teeth are ideal for 
alt kinds of cultivation— 
they vibrate in the soil, they w'- 
break up the lumps and scatter i 
the fine soil loosely over the 
surface, they do not pack the 
soli but pick it up and let light 
and air, life and vigor Into it. 
They do not merely plow 
through the land leaving it in 
ridges, but cultivate all the 
surface, leaving it fine and 
level. But, to do good work 
they must be controlled by 
machinery. The vibration 
which makes them so valuable 
to the soil, makes it impossible 
to hold them securely by 
hand or foot. That is 
where the New American 
Cultivator does Its part. No¬ 
tice the little wheels from 
which the sections hang See 
the bars on which they roll. 
These bars are Locked securely 
In any position in which they 
are placed, by the LOCK LE¬ 
VERS, which are within easy 
reach from the seat. 
The sections roll from side to 
side with entire freedom, a boy 
can guide them easily, and they 
do not swingupoutof theground, 
but are always doing thesame level cultivating. 
OUR LIBERAL PROPOSITION 
We will send you a New American Cultivator 
on trial at our own expense. You needn’t even 
stand the freight. Simply send us a trial order 
for the New American Cultivator, and we will ship 
one to your railroad station, freight prepaid. You 
don’t pay us anything. We don’t ask you to make 
any deposit. You just take the Cultivator home, 
and use it a month EREE on your own farm. Give 
it a good stiff test. Cultivate with it just as if it 
was your own. If you don’t find it exactly as rep¬ 
resented—if it don’t showup to be all we claim, 
take it to the railroad station, and tell the agent 
to ship it back to us at our expense. The use you 
have had of it won’t cost you a penny. If the Cul¬ 
tivator is as represented, you can pay as suits your 
convenience. We’llallowyouanyreasonabletime.
