July 18, 1908. 
HUMOROUS 
Once more the heart with pleasure sings, 
Earth might he worse, ’tis plain to see; 
If sparrows were equipped with stings, 
What fierce mosquitoes they would be! 
—Washington Star. 
Briggs : “You say business is looking 
up ?” Griggs: “That’s what it is. It 
can’t look any other way; it’s flat on its 
hack.”—Boston Transcript. 
Prospective Country Boarder: “Is 
the water you have here healthy?” 
Landlady: “Yes, sir. We use only well 
water.”—Boston Transcript. 
Waiter: “We have clams in every 
style, sir.” Diner: “Then bring me a 
dozen in sheath gowns and Charlotte 
Corday hats.”—Boston Transcript. 
“Did the new foreman at the works 
give the men any impetus at the work, 
Pete?” “No, sah. Not a hit, sail. Said 
we’d have to wuk fo’ de same old wages, 
sah.”—Baltimore American. 
Old Gentleman: “Rastus, if you had 
half of that big wat^melon, would you 
be happy?” Little kastus: “No, sah.” 
Old Gentleman: “What more would you 
want to complete your happiness?” Lit- 
the Rastus: “De odder half ob dat melon, 
sah.”—Chicago Daily News. 
“I want a photograph representing 
me just as I am. None of this “touch¬ 
ing-up’ business, understand.” “You 
are in the wrong shop,” replied the 
artist photographer. “Better try the po¬ 
lice station. It’s a Bertillon style of pic¬ 
ture you’re after.”—Philadelphia Ledger. 
“I’m afraid,” said the minister who 
was evidently fishing for a word of 
commendation, “that my sermon this 
morning was rather long.” “Oh, well,” 
rejoined the good deacon, “don’t let 
it worry you. Even if it was a trifle long, 
it wasn’t very deep, so it averaged up 
all right.”—Chicago Daily News. 
At a recent entertainment in a col¬ 
ored church of Washington the master 
of ceremonies made this unusual an¬ 
nouncement : “Miss Bolter will sing, 
‘Oh, that I had wings like a dove, for 
then would I fly away and be at rest,’ 
accompanied by the Rev. Dr. E. F. 
Botts.”—Philadelphia Public Ledger. 
Mr. Cadd : “Can I see that burglar 
who was arrested for breaking into my 
home last night?” Inspector (hesitat¬ 
ingly) : “Well, I don’t know. What do 
you want to see him for?” “ Mr. 
Cadd: “Oh! there’s nothing secret about 
it. I just wanted to find out how he 
managed to get into the house without 
waking my wife.”—Illustrated Bits. 
“I’s been a sinnah!” vouchsafed a re¬ 
cently converted brother, during an ex¬ 
perience meeting in Ebenezer Chapel. 
“A heen-yus, low-down, contaminated 
sinnah for lo dese many yeahs, and 
never knowed it!” “Don’ let dat mo¬ 
lest yo’, Brudder Newcome,” spoke up a 
sympathetically inclined deacon. “De i 
rest of us knowed it all de time.”— 
Puck.

No Need to Buy Paint Blindly 
If there were no way of knowing good paint materials from 
bad, except by waiting to see how they may wear, painting 
would necessarily be the lottery which many people make it. 
The paint lottery is not necessary. Pure White Lead and 
Pure Linseed Oil are the essential elements of good paint. 
White Lead can be tested absolutely. The commoner adulter¬ 
ants of Linseed Oil can be also 
detected. See that they are pure run weigntKegs ^ 
and properly put on, and the paint 
will stay put. 
To test White Lead, a blowpipe is needed. If 
you intend to paint this season, ask us tor a blow¬ 
pipe, which we will send you free, together with 
full directions for using it. The test is so simple, 
that any man, woman or child can make it.

FIl Give You Plenty of Time 
to Prove that the CHATHAM 
Fanning Mill is the Best 
Seed Grader and Cleaner 
Made 
—And Will Pay for Itself fn a Year M 
You can prove this by simply taking my proposition and 
cleaning your grain— before you sail It—or before you sow It. 
31,000,000 lost by Farmers In every state each season by selling and sowing dirty 
grain Is a low estimate. You won’t haul It to bo cloanod before you sell your grain, 
so you are “docked” on the price because of dirt in every bushel. Just take me up 
on my offer—get a CHATHAM Fanning Mill and save its price easily by using on 
your place. Take SO Days’ Free Trial first. 
WHAT IT DOES BESIDES GRADING

mustard and all other foul seeds out of wheat; buckhorn plantain out of clover!
