“See!” said Willie, “see the clouds; 
Where are they going;, I wonder?’’ 
“Well,” said the captain, “since you ask, 
I think they are going to thunder.” 
--Cornell Widow. 
Tommy: “Oh, ma! Here’s a little 
green snake.” Mamma: “Keep away 
from it, dear. It may be just as danger¬ 
ous as a ripe one.”—Buffalo Commercial. 
Mrs. Uppson : “I suppose you have a 
first-class chauffeur?” Mrs. Neurich: 
“Yes, indeed, we have one of solid ma¬ 
hogany, with five drawers and a French 
plate-glass mirror on top.”—Chicago 
Daily News. 
“Here’s something about the Dutch 
stealing one of the Philippine Islands. I 
wonder what Uncle Sam will do about 
it?” “Well, it would serve them right 
if he refused to take it back.”—Cleveland 
Plain Dealer. 
Tom : “T hear Fred is married. I al¬ 
ways thought he was too timid for any¬ 
thing of that kind.” Jack: “Oh, he mar¬ 
ried a widow.” Tom: “A widow! 
Where did he meet her?” Jack: “He 
didn’t meet her at all: she overtook him. 
—Chicago News. 
Dick (looking at picture-book) : “I 
wonder what the Noahs did with them¬ 
selves all dav long in the Ark ?” Mabel: 
“Fished. I should think.” Bobbie: “1 hey 
didn’t fish for long.” Dick and Mabel: 
“Whv not?” Bobbie: “Well, you see, 
there were only two worms!”—Punch. 
Reporter: “Senator, if it isn’t a se¬ 
cret. I should like to know something 
about the speech you are going to make 
to-morrow. How will you stand on 
Government ownership?” Statesman: 
“Briefly, but with emphasis, young man, 
I shall jump on it with both feet.”—Chi¬ 
cago Tribune. 
Pasted on the window of a book store 
was a sign “Porter Wanted.” In the win¬ 
dow on a pile of books was a sign, “Dick¬ 
ens’ Works all this week for $4.” An 
able-looking Irishman read first the sign 
and then the placard. He scratched his 
head and blurted out, “Dickens can work 
all the week for foor dollars if he wants 
to, but I’m a union man. I’ll not touch 
it. Ye’d betther kape Dickens.”—Youth.

LADIES, YOUR PRAYERS ANSWERED-THERE’S NO MORE WASH DAY! 
GLORY HALLELUJAH! IT’S DEAD! LAID AWAY! WIPED OUT FOREVER. 
W&KtilUfe 
machine 
swallows 
wash boards. 
The world’s watched for the man to 
ent wash day in two. He lives—taken 
more than half—left only minutes—cut 
so much wash day’s all over, changed — 
there’s new way cleaning clothes—differ¬ 
ent from anything known —new princi¬ 
pals, ideas, methods, NEW EVERYTHING. 
Wonderful, but true, family washing 
cleaned with no more work than getting 
a simple meal, less time— no rubbing, 
squeezing, pounding, packing, pressing, 
■no injury— no drudgery —that’s past. 
Good-by wash boards, washing machines, 
laundries — throw them away — tho EASY 
WAY Is here to bless humanity. Women have prayed for death of wash day 
—for clean clothes without rubbing—ruining health, looks—when they could 
wash, get dinner, see friends, indulge in recreation without fatigue—when 
women thought no more of washing clothes than to get a simple meal. I nat 
qlorlous day has come. The world’s full wash boards, so-called washing ma¬ 
chines, yet wash day same as ever—still long, dreary day—no easier, no 
shorter, no better. Use wash board or washing machine, it s drudgery, long 
hours, hard work —backache—a day no woman forgets. Invention that killed 
wash day named EASY WAY —name tells whole story — easy on clothes— easy 
used—kept clean —handled — easy on women —makC9 washing easy—easy to 
buy and selL Not called a machine —powers inside concealed —caution the 
way it gets dirt—has awful appetite for dirt —increases 
more it gets — goes after all the dirt in all the clothes at 
same time—little, but mighty-silent, but powerful-uses 
no spirits, yet works in darkness. OPERATED ON STOVE— 
move knob occasionally—that’s all-scarcely anything to 
’do but wait between batches — child can do it. All iron 
and steel—always ready—sets away on shelf. Entirely un¬ 
like old methods. Verily, wash day is dead —EASY WAY 
^ settled that —woman’s joy, satisfaction, their God-send. 
~ it Less than an hour cleans washing which before took all 
day—cleans all clothes, flnest laces, curtains, etc., in about one-tenth time 
without rubbing, squeezing, packing, pressing— without chemicals to iniuro 
;oods. Saves 62 days drudgery yearly—makes woman’s 
hardest work easiest household duty — saves clothes, 
labor, fuel, health, looks. Surprises all— sounds 
strange, is strange, but listen, it’s no experiment, 
going on daily. You can do it. 
MRS. FRITTER, Norwood, writes:—“With EASY WAY 
I clean a week’s washing in less than an hour without 
rubbing.” W. BROWN, Ohio, writes:—“Wash day now 
wash hour— EASY WAY does the work with perfect 
succees.” J. H. BARRETT, Ark., after ordering 38 Easy 
Ways, says:—” I don’t understand why ft does the work, 
but it does. You have the grandest invention I ever 
heard of. People are skeptical; have to be shown.” J. W. MYERS, Ga., says: 
—“Find check to cover one dozen ‘Easy Ways.’ Easy Way greatest invention 
for womanhood, forever abolishing miserable wash day. Saves mo turning old 
washer for hours. I am ready to have old washer accompany all others to
