To Threshermen and Those Not Threshermen
Who contemplate entering into a new undertaking, we would say by all means to in
vestigate threshing as a business it offers great opportunities a business that requires
comparatively small capital is easily conducted and pays a handsome percentage on
the investment if you buy wisely and exercise ordinary judgment in the operation of
your machinery. To those who are not satisfied with the result of their past year's work
who feel that they have not bought wisely we have only one word of advice buy a
CASE outfit, one that can be operated year in and year out at a profit under more various
conditions than any other threshing machinery on earth. Case equipment represents a
lifetime spent in building threshing machines no guess or slipshod work is put on Case
Machinery. "We do not experiment at the expense of our customers. No improvement is
added to Case Machinery until it has been thoroughly tested and proved that it will
add to life of the machine, increase its earning capacity, or make it do more perfect work.

Widow for Her Admirer.
A St. I'rU'rslmig jiaper publishes

All the young cavaliers of Moscow

tempts to obtain an Introduction to
her and lived In peifect seclusion, at
tended only by an elderly relative.
Some mouths aito a young peasant

telligent, had good manners and con
siderable eonveipatletial talents.
The haror.cFs eventually asked the
girl whether she would enter her serv

discharged her duties to perfection for
a fortnight and then revealed "her
self" as a young Russian nobleman

had masqueraded as a domestic serv

which the beautiful baroness had sur
rounded herself.

Dealer Left with Memory cf Good
Jcke to Compensate Him for
Loss cf Ssl.
A hardware dealer In town tells a
story about n prim old lady who came
Into his store the other day to pur
chase a carpet sweeper. She gazed
here and there about the store as she
entered, and finally going up to the
dealer she looked ut him quizzically
ever her glasses and uskea: "lie- you
keep carpet sweepers ? '
"Yes. madam," replied the denier,
and naming the two kinds which he
had In stock, asked hlch she. de
sired. "Well," siild the lady, "you may
show 1.1c both kinds, if you will."
".lust a moment, madam, until I get
them from the rear of the store." And
with that he went to an obscure cor
ner and lonk ilowu the carpet-sweepers
from their books upon the wall.
It hnppo! eil that in I'en; ef one of
the 111: lies which he desired there was
a lawn mower so hum: tj;:t ho had to
move it. lie teok it down fumi the
hook and as he did so it rolled along
the floor with a grinding rattle.
Hefore he had time to turn around
he heard the old lady shout from the
front of the store: "That makes more
noise than my old one, and I don't
care to look nt it," and so saying, she
whisked out to the door, leaving the
dealer to wonder whether the Joke was
worth the loss of the sule. Portland

An Optical Illusion.
Did you ever try to see through
your hand? Hy following these direc
tions you may at least make yourself
believe you are looking right through
the palm. Out of a piece of paste
board about live inches square roll u
tube. Have one end just large enough
to fit around the eye. and the other a
little smaller. Take the tube between
the thumb and Angers of the right
hand: put the larger end to your eye,
and press your left hand against the
smaller end. Keep both eyes open.
Objects beyond the left hand will be
plainly visible, and there will appear
to be a hole through the center of the
palm. It is the uncovered Ift eye
which is actually doini? all the seeing,
but so far as appearance's co, It will
seem as If the right eye were seeing,
tight straight through t'.io left hand.
