ment you stop pumping back to the level with
the water in the well. 1t is simply constructed,
durable and cheap. 1t will force water any dis
tance 1t is easily worked, and can be used, by
attaching hose in washing wagons, horses, wat
ering gardens, and in case of fire is of valuable
service, as water may be thrown to the distance
of from sixty to seventy feet in the air from it by
the use of small section of hose
This valuable pump is now offered to the public

WHAT WILL YOU HAVE TO DRINK.
Different people, in different places
have different ways of expressing the
same thing. For example, in Montana,
when a man asks you to drink, he
says: "Let's try some of the molten
lead and birthstone" In Idaho,
Lets have little extract Kansas"
In Arizona, "Let's take a scalp" At
Sacramento, "Let's reduce the flood"
About the Mud Volcanoes on the
Humboldt it's Suppose we blaze ?"
AT Fort Chuchill they say, "Let's in
oculate with the measles" and every
body is inoculated there. In Berlin,
Somerset county, "Will you have the
Manuel ?" At Chicago, Nominate
your poison" and they pour it down
and are poisoned. And in Bedford,
thusly, "Let's mix" and verify they
miXeth and get "mixed."
