HUMOROUS 
“And now science tells us that instead 
of springing from a monkey we sprang 
from a mouse.” “Huh! My wife does 
it yet.”—Houston Post. 
“Where were you born?” was asked 
of a little boy with a foreign look. “In 
Paris,” he answered politely. “What 
part?” “All of me!” with the greatest 
surprise.—Chicago Record-Herald. 
“Who can describe a caterpillar?” 
asked the teacher. “I can, teacher,” 
shouted Tommy. “Well, Tommy, what is 
it?” “An upholstered worm.”—Ladies’ 
Home Journal. 
“Wiiat you need, madam, is oxygen. 
Come every afternoon for your inhala¬ 
tions. They will cost you 16 shillings 
each.” “I knew the other doctor didn’t 
understand my case,” declared the fash¬ 
ionable patient. “He told me that all I 
needed was plain fresh air.”—Tit-Bits. 
A man who had been troubled with 
bronchitis for a long time called on a 
rather noted doctor. After a few ques¬ 
tions, the doctor told him he had a very 
common ailment that would readily yield 
to treatment. “You’re so sure you can 
cure my bronchitis,” said the man, “you 
must have had great experience with it.” 
“Why, my dear sir,” confided the doctor, 
“I’ve had it myself for over twenty 
years!”—Judge.

This Roofing Used Twice! 
Most roofs have but “one life.” This roof pictured above had 
“two lives.” When the Old Wells Street Station of the Chicago and 
Northwestern R. R. in Chicago was torn down, its roof of NEPdnsET 
Paroid, after fighting smoke, burning cinders and storm for eight years, 
was rolled up and used to roof other stations. 
It’s still giving perfect service. NEP°NSET Paroid Roofing is con¬ 
stantly doing this—giving better, longer and safer service than you 
would think it possible for any roofing to give. 
“Covered with NEPDNSET Paroid” means that you have protected 
your stock, implements, grain, etc., with the safest, sanest and surest 
product which the development of prepared roofing affords. It’s a 
quality product. Anyone can lay it.

Fills 60-fL Silos 
With Ease! f 
m The day of ttio skyscraper Silo is here. No Silo too 
m high for the Smalley! Mr. If. A. Cooper of Liver- 
■ pool, N. Y. says: “I tilled a 12-ft. by 32-ft. Silo on the 
shortest cut In five hours. I could have tilled it in 
four hours if they had the help to get the corn to u ’> 
When C. 1. Cook, Menominee, Mich., wanted to till 
the four biggest Silos In the U. S. lie got a I’owcr- 
1 it 1 “ Smalley.” 
Ileal business farmers like Mr. Cooper and Mr 
Cook have no time to fool with the old slnt-uproii 
type of machine. They want this force-feed 
chain-table, grlp-liook kind, made by Smalley 
only Thus they save a tremendous amount of 
work and do a quicker, cleaner job. No coarse 
uneven silage. All uniformly cut. Which meuns 
greater tonage per silo. 
POWERFUL SMALLEY 
?£? SILAGE CUTTER 
not only handles green silage, but is also a 
wonder at cutting <lry feed. Handles alfalfa, 
for instance, to perfection. Letters in catalog 
prove it. Many farmers use their Powerful 
‘•Smalley** to cut corn in the fnll and oats and 
pens in the spring for feeding when pastures dry 
up in July. Only one drive pulley on Blower out- 
fits. No Idler to bother with. Ten per cent steel 
guaranteed in all foundry castings. No oiling by 
hand—hnrd oil cups on all important bearings.
