LUNCH.
POOR little Chub Ursus lay snuf
fling and whining on the bank just
worn out from his swimming experi
ence. His dear mother licked him
all over, and he soon sat up and took
notice.
“Jimmy Coon,” said Teddy Pos
sum, “I always heard that things

High To Get Any.
were as easy as falling off a log, and
I don’t see that it was easy for
Chub to fall off that log.”
“Yes, it is easy to fall off a log,
only Chub wouldn’t let go, and his
claws stuck tight to the old log for
he was afraid he would fall.”
Now Aunt Matilda Ursus was get
ting lunch for her hungry and ex
hausted family, for they were so
worn out with their long swimming
lesson .that she thought they must
have a recess. She found an old
dead tree., and tore off the bark and
picked out the white grubs and
showed each cub how to find their
lunch.
A big ant hill about three feet high
was close by, and Aunt Matilda
would put in her huge paw and claw
out a handful and eat up the run
ning ants. Then each ''little bear
would do exactly as she did. Now
you know that bears like ants very
much. They have a sour taste and
bears consider them‘as pickles. So
you see that those bears had really
meat for lunch. Those fat white

The Tractor That Stays
IT is pretty generally accepted row that
the farm power of the future will be
generated by kerosene and other low-grade, low
priced fuels. A tractor that operates successfully
on these fuels, insuring dependable power at draw
bar and belt, is the tractor that will stay because it
will pay.
International 8-16 Tractor
has established its reputation for satisfactory per
formance in the school of experience. It has
passed successfully through long and ng?J tests
under actual field conditions ig all sections of the
country.
Belt work is becoming more and more important.
The use of small threshers, ensilage cutters, etc.,
combined with a suitable tractor, is making the
farmer more and more independent.
All of this emphasizes the value to you of an
International o-16 tractor that is designed to do
tip-top belt work as well as taking care of field and
road jobs.

delays. *

grubs were th( meat, and the ants
were the pickles.
Those little bears, thugh, liked to
eat just as much as you do and they
sweet for a good
des. b;, but not everyday was there
a s<v<jet dessert.
Somtimes, on a day when there
was too much work to do, there
wouldn’t be any dessert at all. That
good kindergarten teacher had a
kind heart, though, and she thought
those little cubs deserved a good des
sert.
So Aunt Matilda let her little pri
vate school to another hollow tree
that she had noticed some time be
fore and into which bees were flying
and buzzing. She put in tier great
paw and drew it ut and she had a
great piece of honey comb, and the
sweet honey was dripping from it.
Aunt Matilda stood up high and
held the honey out of reach and
those two little bears had to jump
high to get any. It was a very pret
ty sight and that lovely family made
a game of ft.
Jimmy Coon said: “Well, my fa
ther always said to us that we must
be cheerful when we eat, for it
makes our food digest better.’*
“Well, you are pretty smart, Jim
my Coon, if you remember all . your
father ever told you. All I can see
is that Mother Ursus gets most of
the money!”
Tomorrow—Aunt Matilda Is Scared.
“A TOTAL WRECK”
SAYS TENHESSEAN
Who s.. "8 Now Feels Fine, Since Taking
Z'roa Iron Tonic.
David Ji of Forbus, Tenn.,
writes: “I go. hottie of Ziron and
will say that I n. er had anything to
come in so good a i me as I was think
ing of giving up, I was so weak. I
cannot tell you how bad I felt Had
stomach trouble, loss of appetite,
couldn’t sleep, in fact was a total
wreck all over, as I am subject to weak
spells in the Spring of the year. After
using Ziron will say I now feel fine
and can do a fine days work. I think
you have a good medicine, and I can
surely recommend it to any one whe
needs a tonic”.
Medical authorities and text books
agree that iron is needed to keep the
system in good condition. Investiga
tion shows that pale, weak, tired peo
ple generally lack the necessary a
mount of iron in their blood. The
strength that iron gives may be ob
tained by taking Ziron Iron Tonic.
Try it. Ask your druggist about his
guarantee on Ziron. zn 4
