These Are ihe
Surest Steps
to Success
Local Nens
*K*HE successful man is a climber. Perseveringly he pushes upward on
* the steps of success. Sometimes he slips backward, but he grits his
teeth and is up and on again. Climbing is not PLAT. It’s HARD
WORK. The successful climber must STICK EVERLASTINGLY TO IT.

Claud Callan in Star-Telegram
When you are visiting and de-
cide that the people want you to
leave, the chances are ten to one
that you havn’t uiissed it very
far.
Europe would be willing to
quit lighting if some one could
propose terms of peace that
could make both sides appear
victors.
During the early stages of
matrimony a man leads his wife
to believe that he is made of
money, and he spends the bal-
ance of his life trying to con-
vince her that he isn’t.
When she finishes her prepara-
tions for the wedding you will
think that she has enougli clothes
to last her for life, but about the
time you have to renew the note
for the money you borrowed to
marry on you will learn that the
wife of your bosom has nothing
to wear."

The Admiral 2-Man Horse Press
with self feeder and condensing packer. One man to
pitch and one to tie operate the Admiral to full capacity.
The dividing beard is passed in Hat on top of the
Head block by the tier who holds on to a strap or chain
for a moment until the pitman rebounds, allowing the
board to drop down into upright position in the baling
case. The packer and feeder compress the hay and the
self feeder forces the hay into the baling case, packing it
more firmly than an expert foot feeder, doinjt away with that dan-
gerous work and saving a man’s wages. The Admiral Two-Man
Press has speed because of the three-stroke principle, giving
THREE FEEDS TO ONE HOUND. Each circle of the team packs
aw a}- three big feeds. This extra feed costs you no more, but is a
big saving and is much easier on the team because the pull is
steady. We want you to look at this machine when in Paris.
