The KOHLER Automatic
produces 110-volt current
The Kohler Automatic Power and Light Plant produces
standard 110-volt electricity, and therefore allow* you to
use the same standard electric light bulbs and appliances
used in cities. These appliances are available everywhere
and cost less than those of lower voltage.
Coupled with this advantage of the Kohler Automatic is
the feature of “no storage batteries.” This does away with
the trouble and expense of maintaining a large Dank of
glass-cell storage batteries. The only battery used with
the Kohler Automatic is a small, automobile-type, for
starting the engine. j
Thus the Kohler Automatic gives you all the advantages
of city electricity with the same convenience simply
turn any button on the circuit and you have electricity
for power or light. Send for illustrated booklet. Come m
and see the plant in operation. j

THE DIFFERENCE
In high school days, when life 1
burst out in vistas,
And youthful vigor had its wild ,(
demands,
We had to pause to learn to i
honor
Accepted wisdom, Ir remember |J
well.
i]
The classic scholar, whom we
had before us,
“De Senectude” in its latin text, j
Explained in loving terms of
knowledge,
How the impressions on our feel- j
ings worked.
The beauty of it is my recollec
tion,
Those musings of old Cicero,
Where he, midst friends of art, |
distinguished erudition,
His otium loved in a partician
home.
' His theme was this, that of the .
human stages
Old age presents a greater joy
Than can us give our youth or
manhood
With passion’s threat of love s
dispair.
These pictures form a part of m>
nvi
I wish I could regret, forget,
When mean decrepitude of age
and sorrows
Belie in misery my waning hour.
May then I ask, who did disrupt,
despoil me.
The cruelty of man to man it di .
And I do say. I am not very far
mistaken.
Our faulty natures are of na
ture’s fault
Realities too cruel to give men
tion; ,
The sordidness of just one dol
lar’s worth
Debases, humiliates the non
possessor.
For me no chance to muse like
Cicero did. s- L
Travelers over the Valdez high
way have been favored bv th<
sight of numerous game animals.
