Agents, Have Well Ap-
pointed SaleSroom.

Wine and Benson represent the Mo-
line in this city. They have a well ap-
pointed salesroom at 1872 Fourteenth

the stroke, which has been changed
from AZ 20 inches, this making the
Moline motor the leader of the long
stroke ones in America. Two indepen-
dent ignition systems are fitted, one a

cate him and dress him well. l said
TO myself: That Is because every
thing in the city has TO be bought,
aud living is high" But / began TO
study the thing and l found that
even the country boy costs his parents
great deal.
When you count what boy eats
and what he wears. and the school
books he has TO have, and the doctor S
bills that have to be paid when he
gets the measles or the scarlet fever,
he will cost his folks at home at least
800 year Ii boy is pretty bad u

So that when l am 81, and old enough
to do for myself, / shall cost father
more than $1,000.
Two thousand dollars for a boy!
What do you think OF that?
These are hard times. When par
ents have to put $2,0O0 into boy,
what have they a right TO expect from
him? Is it fair for him to play truant +
at school? Is IL fair for him TO play
ball, go in swimming or hang around
town all the time when maybe his
fathers potatoes are not dug nor the
wood brought in for mother? Is it
fair for him TO disappOint them Dy
swearing and drinking? Is it fair to
forget his parents and neglect even TO
write them letters?
Sume of our parents have put about
all the property they have into us

The Sayings of Soloman

Listen, my son, to my precepts and
harken unto the voice of wisdom, for
| speak with the understanding of one
who hath been stung.
II thou valuest thy peace OF mind
marry not a suffragette, for l say unto
you that man who is joined in we'd
lock TO one of these, his life contain
eth minimum Of heaven and max
imun of purgatory.
He gaineth much notoriety, yea, he
heareth himself talked about on every
hand, but his shirt lacketh many a
button and his toe prOtrudeth through
hole in his sock.
Behold she knoweth many ways for
saving the country, but her childrens
faces are encumbered with much soil,
and dust reigneth supreme on the
what-not in the parlor.
Yea, be IL as naught In his own
household, for she possesseth so much
wisdom and uncanny intuition that
he getteth not away with the most
plausible fabrication.
She listeneth not with bated breath
when he speaketh, neither quoteth
she his sayings to her friends, and If
he attempts TO assert himself she
pooh-pOoheth him into the corner.
Many man has married one Of
these and sayeth TO himself, Nov

fects," but when the honeymoon hath
waned he mourns because she maketh
