TYPEWRITERS
GIVEN AWAY
The Emerson Typewriter < ompany
of Woodstock, III., have recently
given away over 4(X) of the highest
grade, wholly visible Emerson Type
writers made in the world. They
have gone into every state and terri
tory in the United States. There may
Ik- some in your town. They are giv
ing them away everywhere to men,
women, boys and girls over IX years
of age, on surprising liberal condi
tions.
I f you could make any use of a
$100.00 typewriter, providing it did
not cost you even one cent, then in
a letter or on a postal card addressed
to Frank L. Wilder, 1’resident,
Woodstock 111., simply say, “Mail me
all your Free Offers,” and by return
mail you will receive their Free Of
fers, the names of over 4(H) who have
recently received typewriters free, and
you will learn on what easy condi
tions you can get one of their type
writers free right away.
The Emerson Typewriter is one of
the highest grade, wholly visible
typewriters made in the world. Many
who have used the “EMERSON and
other makes pronounce the “EMER
SON” superior to any $100.00 type
writer on the market. It is a wholly
visible machine, has every new, up
to-date feature, looks like other high
grade *100.00 typewriters, though it
sells regularly for less and on terms
of *1.00 down and 10 cents a day un
til paid for. The “EMERSON” has
every new improvement, universal
keyboard, back spacer, tabulator, two
color ribon, everything the best; is
the ideal machine for beginners as
well as for the mosi expert typists
and stenographers; just the typewriter
for the smallest or largest office.
If you could possibly make any use
of a high grade typewriter, even
though it didn't cost you one cent of
money, then be sure, on a postal card
or in a letter addressed to “Frank
L. Wilder, President. Woodstock.
111.,” sav, “Mail me your Free Of
fers.”
NEWS TRAVELS IN HOSPITALS
Wireless Outdone In Rapidity with
Which Patients Get Forbidden
Information.
“A very efficient system of wire
less telegraphy exists in every hos
pital," said the nurse. "Apparently
all patients have the knack of trans
mitting messages, otherwise the news
of serious cases would not travel so
quickly and accurately from ward to
ward. It Is contrary to the rules for
hospital attendants to retail gossip,
and most of them d<* observe strict
secrecy, yet notwithstanding that pre
c\ation there is never an interesting
;e in the building whose history is
* known and discussed in the re
vest corner.
"Last week a boy buffering from a
peculiar kind of throat trouble was
brought into a first floor ward. The
deetors were very much Interested in
the case, yet they took special pains
never to mention it in the hearing or
another patient. But for all the good
their caution did they might as well
have lectured on the case in every
ward; for when the boy died men and
women all about the hospital said to
the nurses:
" 'So that poor boy died, did he? I
guess there wasn't much hope for him
from the start.’
•‘Now, how did the news travel?”
NOT YET APPRISED OF LOSS
3ut Mourners Would Be Plentiful
When They Came to Realize
Their Bereavement.
C<$in and Goldberg went into the
diamond business. They got about
$100,000 worth of diamonds on credit
"Now, how vill ve make it a suc
cess?” asked Goldberg. »
“I got it,” answered Cohn. ‘‘We
will put the diamonds in a coffin and
ship it to Canada and you and I will
go as chief mourners along to Can
ada.”
So they got two black suits, black
bordered handkerchiefs and all the
trappings for mourning. They accom
panied the coffin to Montreal. As the
baggage man took the coffin out of the
baggage car they stood beside it cry
ing.
“Are you the only mourners?” asked
the baggage man.
‘‘Yes, right now,” responded Cohn.
“But in 30 days there will he more
mourners and in GO days still more
mourners.”—New York World.
Why They Can Spell It.
"Before I went to Europe,” said the
school teacher, “it was one of the
mysteries of my profession how every
British child enrolled in our schools
came to be authority on the spelling
of chilblains. Teachers might hesi
tate over one “1” or two, the children
never. They might make orthographic
mess of the simplest one syllable
word, but the tiniest tot from the
British isles went to the head of tin*
class on chilblains every time. One
wintry month in those same islands
told me why. It is the word they saw
oftenest. In drug stores, in clothing
stores, in shops of all kinds cures
and preventives of chilblains are uni
versally advertised. Owing to the
exigencies of the climate there is a
regular chilblains literature present
ed for those children's absorption, so
no wonder they know how to spell
their universal affliction.”
i/JT HE RATHER OVERD!* IT
Husband's Bright Idea cf Changing
the Conversation Left Him in
Somewhat of a Fix.
A. man who hadn't been home to
dinner and who didn’t arrive In time1
for midnight luncheon—if there had
been one—finally landed at his apart
ment ami was greeted with a silvery,
"Is that you, dear?" from his wife’s
room.
"It is,” he responded succinctly, not
caring for much conversation.
"What time is it?”
"Oh. not so late!” ho answered;
and then observing a large hunch of
roses on a table in the hall he sought
to change the conversation by re
marking: "What a beautiful bouquet
of flowers!”
"They are lovely,” assented the
wife.
"Beautiful!” continued the late ar
rival enthusiastically. "Fresh, teo, l
should say. Their perfume is delight- I
ful.”
"Can you smell them?” ^
"Oh, yes; their perfume gees
through the entire place, it is love
ly.”
"You always did like the perfume
of roses,” cooed the wife.
"Yes, and these are especially frag
rant.”
“Well, go to bed if that is the case. I
You see, my dear, those are paper j
roses.”
WORK FOR CLOUD SPOTTER
Humble but Indispensable Adjunct in
the Process of Taking Mov
ing Pictures.
"Among the new jobs that modern
ife has originated,” said a statistician,
‘that of the cloud spotter is interest
ing and odd. The cloud spotter
loesn’t, of course, make spots on
clouds. No, no. He stand on a high
roof with a costly field glass and he
continually notifies his employer, a
moving- picture maker, of the condi
.ion of the heavens.
• "You see. for an elaborate moving
picture play a steady, uniform light is
essential. The pictures must be taken
all in sunshine or all in clear gray
light. Otherwise they differ. Some
are weak and some strong. They don’t
match on the screen. So the cloud
spotter on the roof, searching the
heavens with his glass, studying the
course and velocity of the wind, as
sures his boss of a good half-hour or
hour for photographing a moving-pic
ture play, and thus saves a waste of
films that would otherwise be many
times larger than his frugal salary.”
Inn of the Mild Henry.
The inn “of the mild Henry (zura
sanften Heinrich) in a little town of
Posen has evidently changed hands
during its career, for there is at least
an intimation, in an advertisement
recently inserted in a Posen newspa
per by Hermann Dunkelberg, the
present owner, that he may not be
especially mild. The advertisement
reads: "It has come to my notice
that I am accused of having de
nounced colleagues because they suf
fered Tannebaum” (a forbidden
game) “to be played in their places.
As I have no desire to waste my
time in court, I hereby promise three
marks to anybody who believed this
report out of lack of brains, five
marks to anybody who spread it be
cause of malice and ten marks to the
originator of it, which he can get on
personal application to me. Will pay
fair price for a good, usable bullwhip.
Herman Dunkelberg, Inn of the Mild
Henry.”
Beyond That Stage.
Frank Coffyn, the aviator, was talk
ing in Detroit about the perils of fly
ing. “When we aviators hold our
Thanksgiving," he said, "there is usu
ally something ghastly about it. We're
grateful only to have broken one leg,
or something of that sort. Ghastly
gratitude—a little like the huckster's,
in fact. '1 hear your wife’s ill,’ a
friend said to the huckster. 'She Is
that terrible ill.’ the huckster replied
Dangerous?’ said the friend. ‘Don’t
tell me she’s dangerous!’ ’I’m thank
ill to say.’ said the huckster, ‘that
he’s too weak to be dangerous any
nore ’ ”
