OF THE REASONS WHY
States Separator -
IS THE BEST IN
The United States Separator employs a feeding device to
deliver the whole milk beyound the cream zone preventing
any remixing of cream and skimmilkand any conflict of cur
rents. No other device of any other Separator will do this
work so well, as the records show. This device is patented,
and can be used on no other Separator.
i'cup me unueu aiaies uscsiioii-uuueu uiiuuucia iui mc iur
rouV rents of milk through the separator bowl. This is covered by
strong patents. No discs or other construction can equal its
perfection in separation. It won the world's record for skirn
ming, in 50 consecutive runs continuing 30 days, with the
milk often different breeds of cows.
99 99-100 of the creameries use cream gathared from
United States Separators and are eager for more. Cream
from the United States is smooth and perfect for butter mak
ing. ' The United States skims cleaner, runs easier, washes
easier and lasts longer than any otner separator,
man who runs one. Ask for catalogue at once.

POLIGY WORKS
Great Feature of the Policies Is
sued by the Reliance Life In
surance Co. of Pittsburg.
John M. Patterson, a railroad
conductor, of Sedalia, Missouri,
took a policy with the Reliance
for $2,000 on Mm 15-Year Endow
ment Plan, April 13, 1907. A
note by the inspector received a
th! lime says: "Mr. Patterson
has a family; be is a healthy,
stout man."
In September, 1007, Mr. Pat
terson bad n stroke of paralysis,
which totally disabled him. Sub
sequently his Reliance Policy was
either destroyed or lost, as it was
considered of no value. Recently
Mr. W. L. Philips, of the, Renew
ing Oivision, while in Sedalia, dis
covered this situation. The at
tention of Mrs. Patterson was
called to the fact that her hus
band's policy had not lapsed, but
was still in force under the Total
and Permanent Disability Clause.
Her own letter is more eloquent
praise of Hie Reliance policy than
anything else can be. It says
anything else ran be. It savs: !
"Sedalia, Mo.
"Mr. Scott Dear Sir: Mr.
I'altersoii is unable lo write. He
was running out of Jefferson
City nt die time be took out (be
policy, ami I liil not know nny
tbing about it. Tbe policy is
eitber lost or misplaced. I feel
sure Mr. Patterson will never be
nble lo work again. He lias been
under the doctor's care nenrlv all
(he time since September, 1007.
It will surely be a great benefit
to me and the children. Plense
advise me what to do. We,
neither of us, Knew of the Dis
ability Clause. It is very kind of
you to look us up and tell us of It,
and I surely appreciate it. This
has been a trying ordenl to me lo
see my husband fighting so hard
to regain his health. Thanking
you again for your kindness. Re
spectfully yours.
"Mrs. J. M. Patterson,
"305 W. 5th St., Sedalia. Mo."
The company, upon receipt of
affidavit that policy had been lost,
Issued a duplicate endorsed fully
paid up.
A Reliance Policy may be lost,
'I''roycd or forgotten. It works
just the same, TWCAITSR it is the
policy of the Reliance Life In
surance Company to see that it
does.

Trust Company Incorporated.
'
Lincoln, June 30. Applying for an
Injunction against the enforcement of
the Housch anti-fiee gift enterprise .
measure passed at the last session of
the legislature, William Gold of this
cltv made the first attack on an enact-
ment of 'ie 1911 session in the federal
court here. The assault on the meas
ure comes from Gold because of Its
inclusion of trading stamps in the list
of enterprises prohibited for the gain
of trade.
The provision of the new law states
that "any gift promise, stated or im
plied to give or bestow or in any man
ner to hold out the promise of a gift
or bestowal of any article or thing,
for or In consideration of the purchase
by any persons of any article or
thing."
Gold recites In his petition that he
entered a contract with Sperry &
Hutchinson of New Jersey for the in
stallation of their advertising system
in his store and that he paid them
for the use of their scheme so mucn
per thousand stamps. The complain
ant charges that the bill was enacted
because of the support of other mer
chants who did not favor the use of
the trade attraction scheme by their
rivals. Further he says that itjs
rlnss Wislation and that manv neo
pie through the fear of accepting the
stamps since the passage of the
Housch bill have ceased to take them
and that thereby he has lost trade, all
of which he contends is in violation of
tho Fourteenth amendment to the fed
eial conFlltution.
A temporary restraining order
against Attorney General Martin has
been Issued by Judge Munger of the
federal court, but It cannot be served
until Mr. Martin returns to Lincoln.
Favor Change in Tax Law.
Nebraska representatives in con
gress who have been communicated

at the close of their fiscal years,
lather than upon the last day of De
( ember. Congressman Norrls calls at
tention to results from such an
amendment as that proposed by the
Cimimercinl club, while Congressman
Magulre intimated that he would give
the mutter his personal attention in
the near future. Noiris Brown says
that he believes the proposed amend
ment would be a good one and be
worth the earnest consideration of the
members of congress, lie says that
he vrill presint the local Commercial
club's resolution to the senate at once.
