A Grand Success

1t may sound little bit contradicto-
ry to say that an ice cream freezer is
''going like hot cakes" but it takes
just that phrase to describe the herapidi-
ty with which the Hart & Gillihan ma
chine is making sales for itself. A good
many inventions have been given to
the world from lola, but no one before
ever sprang into such instant and uni
versal popularity. Mr.. Hart and Mr..
Gillihan are both kept SO busy they
hardly have time to eat, showing their
machine andmaking out deeds for terri
tory. AS an instance of the way in
which it "takes" people: A stranger
was passing through town the other
day and stopped into Gillihan's res
taurant, out of idle curiosity, to exam
inc the machine. After looking at it
awhile, he inquired what the right to
manufacture and sell it in the State of
Florida would cost. He was given
price, and it was good, stiff one. He
thought over it awhile then asked for
knife, ripped open seam in his
clothing, took out the required cash
and got his deed to the territory. That
is just single illustration from among
dozens that might be given. And the
reason sales of territory are made so
rapidly is simply because the machine
shows for itself, to be absolutely the
most perfect ice cream freezer ever in
vented, or ever likely to be. To show
the advantage that it has over the old
style freezer, let US take an example Of
each. The White Mountain six-gallon
freezer costs S2S. To freeze it full re-
quires 100 pounds of ice and nearly a
half days labor. After the cream is
frozen it must be packed atan expense
of another 100 pounds of ice. That
packing will only last day, and if
your six gallons are not sold there
must be more ice used. In the new
Lightning Freezer, which can be fur
nished for Sl2, nine pounds of ice will
freeze t,Uenty.four gallons Of cream,
each dish being frozen as ordered with
no more labor than would be required
to take dish of frozen cream from an
ordinary packer. Not only are labor
and expense thus saved, but the cream
produced is fifty per cent better in
quality than can possibly be made in
the old machines, for the reason that
it can be frozen to any degree of hard
ness required, and is frozen with per-
feet evenness. With such tremend-
Gus odds in its favor it is no wonder
the Lightning freezer finds eager buy
ers. Messrs. Hart & Gillihan are to be
congratulated on having hit upon an
invention which is bound to make
them wealthy.
No arrangements have yet been
made for the manufacture of the ma
chimes as the time of the proprietors
has all been taken up in selling terri
tory. 1t is hoped, however, that fac
tory can be established in lola. This
would be the natural place for such an
enterprise and it is one which, if prop
erly conducted, would grow to enor-
nous proportions as there is practical
ly no limit to the number of freezers
that will be needed Messrs. Hart &
Gillihan expect to turn their attention
to this matter at as early date as pos
sible and they will no doubtmeet with
hearty cooperation on the part of all
our citizens.

Under the heading "Before the Bat

interesting dispatches giving a view
of the situation at Topeka the day be-
fore the legislature met. From these
dispatches it is plain that there will

from the Capitol during the next so
days. The REGISTER will give the
gist of it. Now is the time to sub
scribe.

For the first time in the history of
Kansas its legislature is under the
domination of a secret society aud its
members go to the legislative chamber
only to formally carry into effect the
action dictated by a few bosses and
agreed upon in oath bound caucus.
What will the harvest be?

held a caucus to agree on the organi-

The condition Of the country roads
is indeed shame and disgrace to the
State, and how to improve them is a
problem hard to solve, and without
legislative aid it cannot be done, as the
commissioners are powerless to act,
and ale stuck in the mud. In our
humble opinion, the legislature should
empower the commissioners to issue
bonds, raise the dust, and put the roads
in passable condition. Good roads
would save the farmer many dollars
and, where six horse are now required,
two would do the work AS q proper
solution Of the vexed problem, elect q
few good Alliance men to the next
