WORKING DAY AND NIGHT
BUILDING N D ENGINES

Ottawa, Kan, July 27.-Owing to
the extremely unusual weather condi-
lions which have saturated the wheat
and oat fields, the operation of bind
ers and headers by horse power is alb
solutely impossible in some sections
and the addition Of a light engine to
run the working part of the binder is
absolutely necessary in order to save
the crops.
A great many farmers have realiz-
ed these conditions and upon applying
to the local implement dealer, have
found that the dealers were unable,
owing to the tremendous demand, TO
supply engines for this purpose and
were also handicapped because at
tachments for this purpose We're not
available.
The Union Foundry and Machine
& mpany of Ottawa, Kan, operating
one Of the largest gasoline engine
manufacturing plants in the United
States, foresaw the probable condi-
tons, and as a consequence have for
some time past been working their
tremendous plant day and night maxi

HOW We WON OUT
We Saw the Prize and Grabbed It,

Everybody in town knows that we
are first in getting the best Of every
thing. Last week we received a let
ter from Professor Mu,lyon, showing
us a plan whereby he could rush his
homeopathic remedies direct from
his laboratory into Our store without
losing any Of their curative proper
ties. We saw the Importance of this
offer and Immediately sent in our Or
der for a full line Of his remedies.
We want to say that we received a
letter from Professor Munyon stating
that if anyone bought the remedies
and they We're not perfectly satisfied
with results, we were to return the
money. He says, 81 want you to spe.
cially push the Rheumatism Remedy
in order that people may know. Find
the hardest cases in town, those that
doctors have fallen to cure, and get
them to buy a Csc bottle, and if it
doesn't relieve stiff and sore joints.
pain in the back, side, or in any part
Of the body before n bottle has
been used, give the people back their
money" This certainly must inspire
confidence, as everybody knows that
Munyon's homeopathic Remedies
are absolutely harmless and millions
of bottles are sold every year.
He also has sent us a few hundred
packages Of his Paw-Paw Laxative
| Pills and wants us to give them away
absolutely free. He says these Pills
are the best stomach and liver regu-
lator that tie world has ever known.
They school the bowels to act natu-
rally and take out of the system all
| the poisons and matter that irritatcs
the nerves and causes biliousness,
headache and general debility.
We are also to give away a four
page sheet of music free to every
body who calls.

These engines are positively doing
the work in every case where they
are attached to binders and headers
with attachments which the company
supplies with each engine.
If the dealer finds that he is unable
to secure engines elsewhere the Uni
on Foundry and Machine company O
Ottawa, Kan, can take care of the
dealer, either by freight or express;
and no unreasonable price will be put
on the outfit because of the crop con
ditions-as it is the great desire Of
the above concern to enable every
farmer to save his crop for himsel'
and Dakota. If a farmer finds tina
his dealer does not know where tt
get engines he can give the name Of
tle above firm to the dealer and the
dealer can secure all the engines he
will need, they being shipped by ex
press If SO requested.
1t is a tremendous mistake to let
things go on at a time when, by a
little foresight, they can be saved
and the wheat and oat crops can pos
itively be saved if binder and heade,
are equipped with engines to operate
them. ~,

avoid the two ensuing shells. His
lieutenant observer ordered him to
keep straight ahead at the same lev

accurate calculations. A moment
later one shell exploded but a short
distance in front of them, and the
third one directly behind. A piece
of shrapnel carried away a portion
of the tail and fer a moment the ma
chine appeared lost. Tlaw soon sac

through a hot rifle fire, landed safely
