“Why do you refer to his fortune as 
hush money?” Wagg: “He made it in 
soothing syrup.”—Philadelphia Record. 
“The boss sent me after a galvanic 
battery this morning, and they wouldn't 
give it to me without the money, so I 
told them to charge it.” “That must 
have shocked them.”—Credit Lost. 
“I believe, senator,” she said, “that 
you were elected because you claimed to 
be a friend of the people?” “Yes.” 
“What have you done for them since 
your arrival in Washington?” “What 
have I done for them? My dear young 
lady, I have done a great deal for them. 
On four different occasions I have been 
paired when if I had been present I 
should have had to vote against them and 
favor corporations that employ me as 
their attorney between sessions.”—Chi¬ 
cago Record-Herald. 
Little Willie is the apple of his father’s 
eye, and he deserves to be. A while ago 
a rough-looking individual came to the 
house where little Willie lives, and 
grasped him by the collar. “If you don't 
tell me where your father keeps his mon¬ 
ey. I’ll knock yer ’ead orf yer shoulders, 
an’ arfter that I’ll eat yer.” “Oh, please 
don’t do that, sir, whimpered Willie. 
“You’ll find all the money we’ve got in an 
old waistcoat in the kitchen.” Two min¬ 
utes later a bruised and battered wreck 
was heaved through the front door of 
little Willie’s dwelling place, and sat for 
a while in the gutter and blinked. “That 
kid’s too smart—unnatural smart,” it mut¬ 
tered. “Never said a word about ’is ole 
man bein’ inside that weskit.”—Tit-Bits. 
When you write advertisers mention The 
R. N.-Y. and you’ll get a quick reply and 
“a square deal.” See guarantee, page 8.

The I. H. G. and Otner Spreaders 
It will pay you to 
get right down to 
cases and compare 
the I.H.C. Spreaders 
with other spread¬ 
ers betore you buy 
Y OU will find, first of all, that the I. H. C. 
spreaders handle all kinds of manure 
satisfactorily, under all conditions. 
You will find that by their use you will get just 
about double value from your manure. 
You will find them the best designed and the 
simplest of all spreaders. And that will mean 
not only less work and trouble in operating but 
much less breakage. 
Then, there is their superb strength—not cum¬ 
brous, unnecessary weight but strong where 
strength is needed and light where there is 
little or no strain. 
There has been nothing overlooked that 
makes for light draft, easy handling, good 
work or durability. 
Are you disposed favorably toward some 
feature of another machine? You will find no 
device or contrivance essential to right spread¬ 
ing of manure but that is employed in its best 
form on the I. H. C. spreaders. 
And you will find features on the I. H. C. 
spreaders that you will find on no other 
spreaders. 
Look at the vibrating rake which levels your 
load and brings manure up square to the 
cylinder. No other spreader has this device 
and yet you absolutely cannot spread manure 
uniformly without it. . 
Examine the superb steel wheels, broad tires, 
staggered spokes, clutches in both hind wheels, 
front ones cutting under for short turning. _ 
The one lever, convenient to your right 
hand, is far more desirable than a different 
lever for every movement to be made. 
These are but simple suggestions. Are they 
not worth looking into? There are lots of 
Other points just as important. That’s why 
we say. compare the I. H. C. spreaders with 
other spreaders before you buy. 
These spreaders are made in three sizes for 
each of the two types. Cloverleaf.endlessapron, 
and Corn King return apron, and meet require¬ 
ments of all sections and allclasses of work.
