"MAIL ORDER"
Cream Separators
"When you buy a cream separator you want the
best machine you can get for the money, don't you?
Well, then, just listen to this proposition:
Before you order a "mail order" separator write
to the concern and tell them that you want to try
their machine out against a De Laval, with the priv
ilecre of sending their machine back if you decide
that the De Laval is better worth what we ask you
for it than their machine is worth what they ask.
That's absolutely fair, isn't it?
We'll be glad to furnish you a De Laval for such
a trial any time you like and let you be the judge.
We are clad to make this offer because we
know that the De Laval will give you better
service and cost you less in the long run than
any other machine you. can buy, no matter
what the price.
If you already have a mail order
separator, or any other for that mat
ter, which isn't giving satisfaction,
we have an exchange offer that
we believe will interest you.
Before you buy a Creanl
Separator see and try a

THE FRENCH FAVEROLLES.
Our French iirtists do beut the Dutch
turning out fashions that are extraordi
narily risque, picturesque and peculiar
ami among these is that rooster with
whiskers, the Faverolle. a breed that
is gaining ground in this country with
those who want birds for beauty as
well as utility, and Mr. Mutlle Chops
for both does till the bill.
The varieties of the breed comprise

SALMON FAVKliOLLE COOK BIRD,
French Blue, English Salmon and
English Ermine Faverolles.
Their origin is France, but the Eng
lish rooster tinkers claim to have
made some improvement and thus at
tach their trademark to two varieties.
The distinctive characteristic's of the
breed are the whiskers, live toes and
feather leggings.
The whiskering does not grow Uf
over the eyes to obscure the vision as
in some bearded breeds and is a dis
titii't advantage in winter, as it pro
tects against cold. The fifth toe is no
so useless as with the Houd.iu and
Dorking, but is useful for extra licks
in garden destruction.
Faverolle chicks are hardy and ma
ture rapidly, the pullets maturing early
and making heavy winter layers.
The French and English are very enthusiastic-

THE GILA MONSTER.
Repulsive In Looks, It Is Really a
Harmless Creature,
1'robably there is no other living
creature more feared by the Ignorant
t luiu the Gila monster, about which all
manner of weird .tales Imve been told.
It lias even been held that the mere
breath of this animal is suUR-ient to
cause death to the one upon whom it
fell. Scientific inquiry, however, fails
to disclose a single Instance wherein
th breath or eveu the bite of this
civature has resulted fatally. The
fact that dissection mid microscopic
examination do not reveal any truce ot
glands for the secretion of venom is
sufficient evidence to indicate that this
curious member of the lizard family
has been slandered.
Some years ago a civil engineer In
the southwest undertook to settle once
for all the question whether "the mon
ster" was deadly or not. A fine speci
men was captured and confined in a
wire iuclosure. A chicken was obtain
ed, and its feathers were removed in
order that the lizard might have every
opportunity to strike at the breast
The chicken was then held quite close
to the Gila monster, which soon snap
ped viciously and secured a firm hold
on the fowl's breast, retaining this grip
for more than ten minutes. When the
victim was released it was found that
the chicken's breastbone had been bro
ken. Nevertheless the fowl quickly
recovered, the bone knitting and the
wound healing with no symptoms of
poisoning.
It is very probable that the reputa
tion for evil borne by the Gila mon
ster is due simply and solely to its
most repulsive appearance. Harper's
Weekly.
THE UBIQUITOUS SEA LION.
He Strayed a Long Way From Home
Before He Was Killed.
The following story is taken from
the American Magazine:
"Suuday is a dull day. and the city
editors had a habit of detailing men to
go to the zoological gardens and get
animal stories for Monday morning
The reporters got together one Sunday
morning and persuaded the head ani
mal keeper to let them publish a fake
story. It was rather commonplace,
concerning the alleged escape of a non
existent sea lion from the pool to open
water.
"'Fake.' said the managing editor ns
he read the story. 'Let's make It a
good oue.'
"Thereupon he sent telegrams to ev
ery country correspondent on that wa
ter or its tributaries, merely Inquiring
If anything had been seen of the es
caped sen lion. The response was ap
palling. The correspondents needed
only the bint. That day the sea lion
was seen by at least twenty corre
spondents, and Berghand printed all
the reports one after another. Thus
spurred, the correspondents went to It
In earnest. The following day the sea
Hon was reported at every point with
in 200 miles. The story spread like
ripples on water. !n five days the lion
was sighted over half the world, and
an enthusiast at Southampton cabled
that he was heading toward the north
sea. Then a cruel correspondent up on
Lake Superior killed him and wired
that he was sending the skin as proof.
I always suspected that the managing
editor did it himself."
A Fins Sense cf Feeling.
One of two darkies who run a boot
black "parlor" in partnership was brag
ging of liis well developed sense of
touch, particularly- in the matter of
money. He boasted that he could toll
the denomination of any United States
coin merely by feeling it. His partner
wearied of these boasts aud came back
with this:
"Your sense o' feelln' ain't nothin to
my friend Marcus. Him and me used
to work on the Pullman down through
Kansas. Marcus had been on this route
for about ten years. One night when
we was both n-sleepin'. "long around
midnight. I wakes up and I shakes Mar
cus and I says. Marcus, where ure we?'
And Marcus Jest rolls over and sticks
his hand out the window and he says.
'We're goto' through Oswego.'" Ev

First Lightning Rod.
Nearly everybody believes that Ben
jamin Franklin was the inventor and
constructor of the first lightning rod.
In this particular they are mistaken,
ns the first lightning catcher was In
vented by a poor monk of Bohemia,
who put up the first lightning rod on
the palace of the curator of Preditz,
Moravia. June 1". I754. The appara
tus was comjMjsed of a pole surmount
ed by an iron rod. supporting twelve
curved branches and terminating in as
many metallic boxes filled with iron
ore. The entire system of wires was
united to the earth by a large chain.
The enemies of the inventor, jealous of
bis success, excited the peasants of the
locality against him and under the pre
text that bis lightning rod was the
cause of the excessive dry weather had
the rod taken down and the Inventor
Imprisoned. Argouaut
