REX MAGNUS 
THE HUMlSTOISh 
is needed in every household in the country. It is safe, 
pure, tasteless and harmless, and it effectually keeps Meats, 
Fish, Milk, Cream, Butter, Eggs, &c., fresh and sweet in 
the hottest weather, without the aid of ice or salt. It is as 
harmless as salt, and is used in much the same way, but is 
much more effectual. 
It is No Humbug. 
It may sound incredible, but it is a fact that Rex 
Magnus will do what is claimed for it. It is endorsed 
by the best known scientists and business men in the 
country, and is entirely successful wherever tried. 
Economical in Use. 
It costs only a fraction of a cent to preserve a pound of 
meat, fish or butter, or a quart of milk, and it will save 
many times its cost, as you can always keep till another 
day anything vou have left over, instead of letting it spoil. 
Sold by druggists and grocers. Sample pounds sent pre¬ 
paid by mail or express (as we prefer) on receipt of price.

The PLANET Jr. POTATO DIGGERS (White &Sweet> 
Are now perfected, and the price is so low that no one having five acres yearly of either white or sweet potatoes, can 
afford to be without one where time and labor cost money, or where clean digging and potatoes free from cuts and bruises 
are desirable. The WHITE Potato Digger has steel moldboard and digging tines, and digs the crop clean among green 
or ripe vines ready for picking into baskets. The SWEET Potato Digger cuts the vines on both sides of the row at 
once, at the same time that it digs the crop handsomely, throwing the hills on their sides without knocking off the pota¬ 
toes, but leaving them exposed to view and in the very best condition for gathering. Both machines are adjustable, easily- 
understood, free from gearing or complication, are light running, and will last a life-time of ordinary usage. Descriptive
