Newton, Peter Schuttler and Weber Wagons
For Sixty years the Newton Wagon has been acknowledged to be a high class, dependable Wagon. Materials, workmanship and construction all contribute to give the purchaser the highest value obtain-
able. Every feature contributes to make the Newton Wagon proof against strain, wear and climatic conditions. The double box is reinforced with 2x1 inch hardwood cleats attached to sides with
rivets, has centerboard re-enforcements and adjustable binding rods. Metal cleats insure a grain-tight box. Seven extra heavy cross pieces reinforce the bottom. Specially constructed square
hounds, clipped gears and trussed axels insures stability and service. A perfect cup and saucer bearing is secured in the bolster and sand board plates. Reaches on Newton Wagons are four inches
wide and two inches thick, riveted at end which prevents splittipg. The wheels are made of selected, seasoned oak and are boiled in linseed oil before being ironed. Rear gear is doubly braced,
each plate and reach box made of pressed steel. The finest test of a wagon is actual service. The service of the Newton wagon dates from 1854. It is serviceable and dependable.
The Weber
Wagon
is destined to give
greater strength
and longer life,
more convenience
and better service.
Let us show you its
many features.
PETER SCH
Peter Schuttler wagons have stood the tests for many years. Every piece of material used in a Peter Schuttler Wagon is selected with the greatest care. They have been improved slowly and care-
fully, with the result that all improvements are found to be practical, prolonging the life and adding strength and durability. The box is selected yellow pine floor, only the best grade of popular
and cottonwood, thoroughly seasoned, are used in the sides, heavy channel steel straps on the outside with full length steel straps on the inside, just where the channel steel is on the outside, are riv-
eted together which holds the sides in position, adding strength and durability to the box. This construction overcomes warping. All gears wood, including reaches, bolsters and hounds, are made
of thoroughly seasoned oak. Axles are of best air dried hickory fully tested. Wheels are made of selected seasoned oak, boiled in linseed oil before being ironed. The thousands of pleased purchasers
of this wagon is sufficient recommendation.

A Call To Duty.
From the battle fields in France
there comes an unspoken call that
should find an answer in every Amer-
ican’s heart. The recent great events"
in Europe, the successes of American
arms on the fields of France should
spur every American to greater effort.
Our people at home -should not rest
on the laurels of our soldiers in
France. Every death on the field of
honor in the line of duty and for our
country’s cause should be a call to us
for every sacrifice and every exertion
to aid in the cause for which our sol-
diers are fighting, for which our sol-
diers have died.
Increase production, decrease con-
sumption, save, and lend to the Gov-
ernment. Every cent lent to the U-
nited States is used to support,
strengthen, and aid our soldiers in
France.

To Improve Your Digestion.
"For years my digestion was so
poor-that I could only eat the light-
est foods. I tried everything that
I heard of to get relief, but not until
about a year ago when I saw Cham-
berlain’s Tablets advertised and got
a bottle of them did I find the right
treatment. Since taking them my
digestion is fine.”—Mrs. Blanche Bow-
