HUMOROUS 
My bonnie lies under the auto, 
My bonnie swears under the ear. 
lie can't get the engine to working 
And so we must stay where we are. 
We’re lonesome, lonesome, 
Lonesome out here where we are. 
He’s sent to the garage for some one 
To tow us to town before dark; 
He can’t get the spark plug to sparking 
It simply refuses to spark. 
The spark plug, the spark plug, 
It simply refuses to spark.

City Visitors “I suppose there’s quite 
a little idle gossip in a village like this.” 
The Postmaster: ‘‘Idle ? Not a bit of 
it! Works 18 hours a day an’ never 
takes a holiday.”—Puck. 
Landlord (to new tenant) : “I suppose 
you would require a bathroom m the 
house?” Tenant: “Oh! we don’t need 
a bathroom. We go to the sea every 
year.”—Meggendorfer Blaetter. 
“What is there,” asked the schoolmas¬ 
ter, “in connection with George Washing¬ 
ton that distinguishes him from all other 
Americans?” “He always told the truth, 
sir!” replied Brown, Jr., brightly.—Tit- 
Bits.

The three essentials of the best 
farm wagons are: 
—The toughest wood stock thor¬ 
oughly air seasoned. 
—Proper construction and Ironing 
to give the greatest possible strength. 
—Light running qualities for the 
longest possible time. 
... 
This describes the wagons of the 
International Harvester Company 
line. 
More than that, these qualities are 
combined in wagons of the handsom¬ 
est appearance. They are built for 
the maximum of durability along the 
most pleasing lines. 
The Weber 
The Columbus 
The Bettendorf 
are old established makes with well 
known reputations for superiority. 
The Weber, a strictly high-grade 
fdrm wagon, has been one ot Amer¬ 
ica’s leading farm wagons for more 
than half a century. It is constructed 
of the very best material obtainable 
and is adapted to all conditions of 
climate and service. 
The Columbus is known in all mar¬ 
kets as a wagon well designed for 
general farm purposes, and con¬ 
structed to meet the requirements 
of a good farm wagon. 
The Bettendorf has an all steel front 
and rear gear which cannot warp, 
bend, rot, or shrink under any con¬ 
dition of climate or service, and is 
capable of sustaining unusual loads. 
It makes little difference which of 
these wagons you buy. You will 
make sure of wagon value and wagon 
satisfaction in any event. You sim¬ 
ply can’t buy anything better at any 
price. 
You should know more about these 
wagons than we can tell you in this 
small space. Call on the local agent 
and look them over, or write us direct 
for our wagon pamphlets which fully 
describe each.
