A Challenge!

The Harvester King Company, fully confident of
the superiority Of their great machine, issue this
challenge to the makers of any and all six-foot cut
machines:-
We will put the twelve-foot cut Harvester King
machine into any field of wheat, oats or barley, and
under the same favorable conditions OF grain will cut
and bind more grain within a given number of hours
than anv two six foot binders in the market OF what
ever make.
We will do the work as well in the same conditions
of grain.
We will leave as clean or cleaner stumble.
We xill bind as tight or tighter.
We will show that the Harvester King will cut as
close to the ground and can be changed by use of the
lever to cut HIGHER stubble than any six-foos binder
on earth.
The Draft of the Harvester King will be less than
the combined draft, fairly and accurately ascertained
of the two six-foot binders.
Our competitors have been declaring that the
Harvester King is a failure, that we misrepresent its
qualities, that it is impracticable and won't work in
the field. If they believe all they say, let them meet
us in the grain and settle the question by a trial.

The Novel Club"

A new way to raise money for charity
and at the same time enjoy an added
pleasure besides the happiness of Civ
ing, is to start a Novel Club" The
principal literature of the day is now
given to US in novels, and as many new
books of the day are brought out in
the most expensive bindings it is a
matter of many dollars and cents to
keep up with the times So the habit
of lending these new books around
their circle of acquaintance has grown
up in feminine circles
One social group of women has de-
cided to conduct this matter systemat-
ically hereafter, and it's members have
dubbed together for their own finan-
cial benefit as well as pleasure, while
all profits go to charity. AS each new
book comes out, the price is ascer-
tanned and each member is taxed pro
rata for the total sum. The charity
fund is an important adjunct, for each
member pays into the fund 10 cents a
week for two weeks. and 3 cents day
for each day overtime. The books are
circulated from the house of the mem
ber situated most centrally, and the
number of books bought each two
weeks equals the number of members
of the club, so that each member has
a new book
This method Of circulation insures
promptness in return. In fact, it is a
circulating library of latest literature
on a very limited scale These new
books are not allowed to accumulate
but are sold off at auctions or raffies
These latter are social affairs, and the
fun of bidding and voting always
| brings extravagant prices for the
books, and the surplus. together with
the fees and fines already collected
are devoted to some philanthropic pur-
pose.
! This is a good summer scheme 70,
raising money, especially at resorts
where the chief object is to rest, and
| the long summer days are too warm
for anything but reading 1t takes less
energy than any other scheme yet pro-
posed for raising money, fact that
strongly recommends it for the sum

The blue eyes shine meath the silken
That has such a trick OF tangling.
AS she hears the roll of the mllk-cart
And the sound of the milkcans' jang-

She calls from her chair by the window

For mother to bring the pitcher, quick;
For the num-num man is coming.
She holds the pitcher the while he pours
The milk from the brimming measure
She clasps it tight lest she spin urop

He rolls away down the rocky street,
With kisses showering after,
And quaint farewell for man ana morse
That causes hearty laughter.
And now it's over. the morning call,
With interest attended;
The num-num man is out OF SaSnt,
The great event is ended.
With kitty and dolly and many toy,
The num-num man is forgotten now
By this tickle little maiden.
The mother is silent Oftimes her eyes
Grow dim with unshed tears
That come with the thought of days long
past,
And the friends of childish years.
The milky stream from the pitcher poured
Recalls the clOver'S beauty.
Old paths she treads, the whileI her hands

A blue sky arching over,
And soft-eyed cattle that stand content
Knee-deep in fragrant clover.

The meadow green dividing,
And there are thickets of roses wild,
Where violets shy are hiding.
Here and there through the summer all

And you may hear soft bird-notes clear
If you only care to listen.

A mansion tall and grand.
There, was never dwelling could equa

OF life in another land
A tale of castles and dungeons dark,

The meadow brook was Spanned,
And many a voyage there we made
To many a far-off land.
With steady gaze we watched the waves
Till plank and we seemed moving,
Our board became a vessel grand
We went the wide world rowing.

In glee we downward bent;

And long the rides we took
