We know we have the best steel separator made and we want yon to know abont it. The threshing business is a good business to get into. It takes small capital but gives large profits, and to increase these profits it is necessary to have a CASE Steel Separator and a CASE Engine. One thing that you can save on is a CASE Steel Separator, which you cannot do on a wooden machine, is the insur ance premiums. Case machines have gone through fire and beyond replacing a few belts were ready to run in a day. The CASE Engine will give you more power for the rated horsepower than any other engine rated the same. Altogether these machines are warranted to do more and better work than any other machines of similar size and working under the like conditions.1 We have a CASE Steel Sep arator and a 15 h. p. engine which sells for about $2,000.

He was a doctor, and not such a young doctor either. That is to say, he had been practicing for nearly ten years. An interesting event happened in his family and he found himself the lather of a very fine girl, his first torn. A patient who happened in about three days after the event didn't have a great deal of chance to talk about his particular ailments because the father was very eager to tell all about the child. "I've helped to bring a lot of chil dren into the world," said the doctor, "and 1 know a lot about them. Hut I want to tell you that this is about tho finest I've ever seen. . Now that may seem to you merely to be the enthusi asm of a father, but really I know it's so." And ho went on for some time telling about the merits of his off spring, how sho was a finely formed child and embraced all the perfections. He had turned over the duties of at tending to his wife and child to-an-other doctor, as the custom is more or less among physicians, This was the reason for one thing 'the doctor said. "One afternoon when the baby was only three days old she sneezed. Some way or another that made me nervous and so I decided to call up the doctor. "It happened he wasn't at home and nothing would do but I must tell his wife all about it over the telephone. She Just laughed at me and that sobered my excitement. "Afterward 1 thought how angry 1 might have been had some one of my patients called me up on a foolish mat ter like that. It Just goes to sho that this sort of thing is done right along by folks who ought to know bet ter." ' ' HORROR OF AFRICAN NIGHT. Drilling for "the Seventeenth."

Queer Kabits of Authors. Both Dumas and Balzac showed no Inclination to pass the wine-bottle. On the other hand, Voltaire drank huge quantities of coffee when engaged iu writing. As a matter of fact, over-ln diligence in that beverage during a protracted literary effort was the real ause of his death. Schiller nisi ;1rnnk coffee "to thaw tho frost out o? his wits," hut he fancied Imbibing the infusion while seated with his feet in hot water. This, he believed, stlmu lilted his Imagination In slugglBh moods, and he refreshed it durlns work by copious draughts from a flnsU of Khcnlsh wine. Coming Down Easy. Inquiries after the welfare of Pat rick Conroy were answered by his devoted friend, Terence Dolan, who was at the Conroy's in the double ca pacity of nurse and cook. "No, he's not dangerously hurt at all." was Mr. Polnn's reply to a solemnly whis pered question at the door. "We heard he had a bad fall and was all broke to pieces," whispered the neighbor. "TIs a big story you've heard," said Mr. Dolan, in his cheerful roar. "Thrue, he fell off'n the roof o' the rirady stables, where he was hhlngling and he broke his lift leg, knocked out a couple of teeth and broke his collar bone. "Mind ye, if ho'd hove fell clour to the ground It might have hurled bini bad, but sure there was a big pile of shtones nnd old lumber t'.iat broke, his fall." Yomh'H Commit. ion ) V Traveler Describes Peculiar Condi tions That Exist in Regions of th Dark Continent. Caroline Klrkland. in her book on "Some African Highways," writes of night in the dark continent: "There is noihing so black as an African night, and I think that it is because the earth, being a deep red, offers no re flection to the faint starlight, such as we get in other lands. Instead it Wallows up what slight glow there may be, and gives to the darkness a dense, velvety quality not to be found anywhere else. Overhead the stars Elare more brilliantly than in north tin latitudes, but they seem to. cast no light, and the night is palpable suffocating, appalling and filled with a nameless horror which is quite lo desci Ibable." In a single sentence the same witter gives a forcible 'idea of the sleeping siikness: "While there is nothing acutely distressing about this man ner of dying, nothing to equal the ter rors of other vital diseases like can cer or tuberculosis, there is some thing peculiarly sinister In the slow, oai.itvv (rrPKttlhlf antiroach ot Kit 11 i tl,' death, whose course no known remedy can stay or alter." Of African lions Miss Kirkland writes: "As a rule It Is only old Hons who attack human beings. They grow too decrepit to be able to catch the more agile antelopes who are meu lawful nrey. so. goaded by a hungei v.hlch age ennnot wither or lessen, ttey pounce on unwary mortals. Getting Into Practice. It is often pleasanter to theorize than to perform. A young law student, says a writer in the Philadelphia In quirer, was making a study of certain processes of his future profession. He showed an inclination to sit in the house and speculate idly, instead of doing some of the domestic tasks which stood waiting. "Deduction Is an Interesting proc ess," declared the youth to his fa ther. "For example, there is a heap of ashea In' the yard. That is evi dence that the family has recently had fires." "Well. John." Interrupted his fa ther, "suppose you pursue your stud les a little farther by going out and idftina that pile of ashes." Youth s Companion. The Young Idea. "Ma," paid a newspaper man's son. "I know why editors call thomselve 'we, Why?" "So's the man that doesn't like the article will think thers uro too many people for him tc tackle" Christian Work and Evangelist. if II IE Rich Roast Beef After all there is nothing so good as a good ROAST cooked well.
