The entire work on a Case engine is put on with a view to make it more durable. The spring mounting
on a Case engine is not only theoretically correct, but has proven thoroughly efficient on engines doing all
kinds of road and contract work and plowing. The tractibility of one of these engines is more than any
other engine of the same rated horsepower. The traction wheels of the engines are built-up steel wheels,
which take more time to construct than the cast iron wheels, but can be repaired, while cast wheels cannot.
This part of the engine is subject to severe usage and their construction should claim the closest attention of
purchasers. The Case traction engine is superior in every respect to any other engine for the hill climbing
that must be done here. The large wheel base, boiler mountinsr, double gears, more equal distribution of
weight on front and rear axles and their great power make the Case the premier puller up hill or on the level
and over all conditions of roads. The 10x10 inch cylinder simple traction engine is rated at 20 horsepower
and is the one in more general use than any other size or make ot traction engine. This engine has a wide
range of uses such as grading, pulling stumps, saw-milling and well-dnllmg.

PROPER CARE CF THE INSANE.
City of Gheel, In Holland, Takes Care
of These Unfortunates as
Its Guests.
One of the most remarkable places
In Europe, of which no tourist on
pleasure bent ever takes notice, la
the "City of the Insane," by which
name Gheel, near Antwerp, bus been
known for generations. About 1,500
men ami women, ulllleted with Insan
ity in all ita forma, live there, and
nave a happy being as the "guests" of
the inhabitants, who know by experi
ence how to treat tho unfortunate
ones. In the streets, in the places of
amusement, the cafes and workshops
these patients may be found, ami no-'
where Is there the remotest sugges-
tion of restraint apparent. The board '
ranges from '240 to -,400 marks a year, j
and, no matter how small the amount
may be, the patient Is always the
favored member of the family, lie '
has the first right to the most com-
fortablo chair, and the head of the i
table belongs to him. Me receives
the most attention, and this he learns ;
to appreciate and to endeavor to !
maintain by living down his illness j
Een the children know how to treat ;
the demented people. The dangerous ;
oi.es are sent to nnothor sett lenient j
and to Institutions, it is wonderful '
how considerate careful and kind the !
slmnlo neonle are toward theii '
charges, and a peep into the conimun
Ity would probably terrify physicians
who had never heard of and could not
appreciate the good which is being
tloDe in this "City of the Insane."
Fear of Microbes.
Microbes are agent of disease and
death. When they were discovered an
when their character was exposed
science made a big step forward. Mi
crobes taught men not only how U
cure disease, but bow to avoid and
even how to prevent it. Hut into lif
they brought a new terror! Now tin
question Is how to guard against thii
terror. For all fairly healtny personi
there is just one thing to do. Ignort
the existence of microbes altogether!
Don't even stop to think of them, sav
In emergencies, which, to the layman
seldom arrive. Human beings havi
no reason to be In continual fear ot
microbes. The way to be Immuni
from their influence Is by not carinf.
a snap of the finger about them, and
by observing tho ordinary rules o!
wholesome living. Kat and sleep reg
ularly. Take exercise. Keep in frest
air. And devote n few minutes enck
1nv to deep breathing. Microbes hat
healthy people as the devil hates holj I
water.
NEVER A MAN TO GE ENVIED.
Philadelphia Writer's Idea cf Status
to Be Accorded Bachelor in
Society.
The bachelor is punished already,
not only in losing the Joys of a home,
but being an object of contumely. So
long as bachelors are willing to put up
with all the losses they sustain in
celibacy far be it trcni the majesty of
the law to impose further penalties.
It was Cicero or a man of bis day who
remarked that it was onerous for a
man to get along with a wife, but im
possible to pet alons without one. The

Guarding Against Earthquakes.
All great crises have stimulated the
crei.tive faculty of mankind, and
earthquakes have, of course, earned a
f-.il' share of attention. The most
original notion In this connection was
put forth by a genius who quite satis

vided with wheels or rollers they
would move about backwards and for

Proposals and Arguments.
I will confess that I attach much
more importune;.' to men's theoretical
arguments than to their practical pro
posals. I attach mure Importance to
whr.t Is said than to what Is done;
what Is said generally lasts much
longer Hnd has much more influence.
I can imagine no change worse Tor
public life than that which sonie prigs
advocate, that debate sho'tid be cur-
tailed. A man's arguments show what ;
ho Ib really tip to. Until you have
heard the defense of a proposal you j
do not really know even the proposal.
