Tractors With
A Record of Success

Two features Of these tractors would
make them stand out from all the rest
They do field and belt work equally
well, and their operating expense is
very low, because they operate success
fully on kerosene.
Think what this means to a busy farmer.
With tractor that is saving money for him
at every turn of the hywheel, he has plenty
of power to get his blowing, disking, seeding
and harvesting out Of the way promptly and
can use the same power, without change OF a
nut or bolt for grinding, ensilage cutting,
threshing, corn shelling or any other form OF
belt work.
These are the features that make tractor
both valuable and useful to farmer. These
features, together with the good service we
give, are responsible for the twelve year rec
ord of success held by international and
MoguI kerosene tractors. Come in and get
the whole story.

In that case he can do as well here as

Mogul kerosene tractors certainly have
that kind of a record. The first ones

they have sold faster than the big fac
tories could turn them out. A twelve

Painful Dental Work.

In the time OF Nero there were pro-
fcssiOnai dentists who could replace
lost teeth with artificial ones made
of sycamore wood, which were fas-
tened 10 their natural neighbors with
gold wire. A gold plate with several
teeth attached has been found in an
Etruscan tomb. But those dentists
knew nothing of the art of excavating
and filling cavities. When a tooth be-
came too painful they removed it, not
by pulling it but by prying it out in
a manner that must have been most
distressing to the sufferer.

Hopes Women Will
Adopt This Habit
As Well As Men
Glass of hot water each morn
ing helps us look and feel
clean, sweet, fresh.

Happy, bright, Advantageous and
vivacious-a good clear skin; a nat
ural, rosy complexion and freedom
from illness are assured only by
clean, healthy blood. If only every
woman and likewise every man could
realize the wonders of the morning
inside bath, what gratifying change
would take place.
Instead of the thousands of sickly,
anaemic-looking men, women and
girls with pasty or muddy complex
ions; instead of the multitudes or
nerve wrecks" rundown" brain
fags" and pessimists we should see a
virile, optimistic throng of rosy
checked people everywhere.
An inside bath is had by drinking,
each morning before breakfast, a
glass of real hot water with a tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate in it
to wash from the stomach, liver, kid
neys and ten yards of bowels the pre-
vious days indigestible waste, sour
lamentations and poisons, thus
cleansing, sweetening and freshening
the entire alimentary canal before
putting more food into the stomach.
Those subject to sick headache, bill
iousness, nasty breath, rheumatism,
colds; and particularly those who have
a pallid, sallow complexion and who
are constipated very often, are
! urged to obtain a quarter pound OF
limestone phosphate at the drug store
which will cost but a trifle bit is
sufficient to demonstrate the quick
and remarkable change in both health
and appearance awaiting those who
practice internal sanitation. We must
remember that inside cleanliness is
more important than outside, be-
cause the skin does not absorb impur-
tiles to contaminate the blood, while
the pores in the thirty feet of bowels
do.

Know WhortIeberries2

Very few people, we suspect, have
tasted whortleberries, and many do
not know what they are. There is an
excuse for their ignorance, as eN-
perts were long in doubt whether the
fruit was the same as the bilberry but
now they are agreed that they are one.
The Scots call them blaeberries on ac-
count of their color, which is a genuine
blue, and so in the merry Wives" Pts
toll instructs the fairy to pinch them
blue as bilberry."

Roman Soldiers, nsmokes. y

Records recently discovered show
that the Roman soldiers in Caesars
time had their pipes. OF course they
knew nothing about real tobacco, as
that had not at that period been dis
covered, However, they did have pipes
and they smoked lavender and hemp,
and from all accounts they liked it
and it served almost the same purpose.
In fact, it is said to have been a great
