If your home should be struck by Lightning, and then
realize that yon could have saved it, had you used our
Pure Soft Copper
Cable Lightning Rods
How much wiser is the man who buys onr Rods,
protects his property, and the lives of those depend-
- ins; upon him, than the man who depends entirely
upon insurance to save him.. v-
Even, if the insurance would repair the house, it
could not bring back a member of the family, after the
fatal stroke of lightning.
Do you want to feel safe when the storm is raging?
If so, let ns rod your buildings with the Best Rod and
System on Earth. Yours Truly,

WE HAVE
/-
great interest in showing
our friends' and customers
the Round Oak Chief Steel
Range for 1905. In its
make-up there are more
new, unique and practical
features—many of them exclusive—than ever before
used in a steel range.  -
The Chief bears nd fancy
price,  and not a claim is;
made for it that you  yourself cannot substantiate.     ■
■fhis will be no /'send-
your-money-and-take- what-
you^gat" kind of a deal, if
you are going to buy a
range.
You can see the Chief
right here on our floor—you
can pull it apart and examine eyery detail. You can
see whether the covers and
centers are braced and
strengthened as they should
be, whether the lire back
and the fire front are heavy
enough, and the fire box
rightly constructed. In
fact, you can see just what
you are getting, and we will
welcome-a visit from you to
look it oyer; any time*   ■
"The body of the Round Oak Chief Steel Range is
made of one sheet of steel.   The perfect corners
are a simple round bend—it looks easy, but it
ig quite a bit harder to make ana have it right,

"Habit" is hard to overcome. If
you take off the first letter it does not
change "abit." If you take off another you still have a "bit" left. If
you take off still another, the whole of
"it" remains. It yoa take another, it
is not "t" totally used up. All of
which shows that if you wish to be rid
of a "habit" you must throw it off altogether.—Ex.
An exchange says that the people
who need religion are: The man who
lets his horse stand out in the cold all
day without a blanket on; the man
who growls like a wild beast when his
wife aska him for money; the woman
who is not what she ought td .be; the
minister who is looking for an easier
place and a higher salary; the man
Who walks'the streets with his hands
in his pockets while his. wife carries
the baby; the man- who keeps a dog
and says he cannot afford to take the
home paper.

The  Ballade  of a  Broom.
When Susan, starts to sweeping,
A cap about her curls.
The broom goes fairly leaping,
The dust—It fairly -whirls;
She  sounds  the ultimatum—
"The play-house must be clean,"
And. shortly not an atom «
Of airt is to be seen.
"When  Sally sweeps   the play-house
And plies her little broom,
And tries to make from chaos
A heat ajid tidy room.
The dust seems but to scorn her,
It plays the meanest tricks,
In every crack, and corner
So stubbornly It sticks.
Till Susan comes to cheer her
And lends a helping hand,
For there is Hot a dearer
Big sister in the land;
Then Eally stops her weeping
And runs away to play.
And that's the end of sweeping
Until another day.
—Rose Mills Powers in The Pilgrim.
