Mr.. Major the famous cement man, OF New
York, explains some very interesting facts
about Majors Cement
The multituues who use this standard article
know that II Is many uudred per cent better
than other dement's for which similar claims
are made, but great many do not know why.
The simple reason is that NJ 7. Major uses the
best materials ever discovered and otter man
ufabturers do not use them because they are
too expensive and do not allow large profits
Mr. Major tells us that one OF the elements OF
his cement costs 1915 pound. and anoth er
e.. gallon, while a large share of the So
called dement's and liquid glue upon the ma rk-
cts are nothing more than sixteen-cent I'll ne,
dissolved in water or citric acid, and in 80 me
cases altered slightly In color and odor by the
addition of cheap end useless materials.
Majors cement retails at fifteen cents and
twenty-five cents a bottle and when a de aler
tries to sell substitute you can depend u pom
II that his only object is to make larger pro 1T.
The profit on major cement is as niue as
any dealer ought TO make on any cement And
this is doubly true in view OF the fact that each
dealer gets his his share of the benefit OF Mr..
Majors advertising which nowamounts to over
5000 month, throughout the country. stall

two ways left and we hope to settle them
in one OF the two ways; either by arbitra-

A PLEA FOR IMPARTIALITY.
Lord Crevve Discusses the BARRING
Ont of American lockers.


LONDON. Dec 15-At dinner given
by the Gimcraek Clug at York last even
ing Lord Crewe, responding TO a toast
to the Jockey Club, OF which he is one
Of the three stewards, referred to- the
charges that the turf is in bad repute,
which has been ascribed to what has
been termed the American invasion. He
said it was the desire of the Jockey
Club to act with the most absolute fair
ness toward everybody without reference
to nationality.
In the cases IN which American jockeys
were concerned he should like to tell his
hearers what it was, so far as he could
make out, that the stewards OF the Jockey
Club we're asked to do. They were asked
for the sake of the general purity of the
turf, without any particular evidence TO
convict certain American riders and train
ers, for no other very good reason, so
far as he could see, except that they were
Americans. That seemed to him most
astounding argument. 1t was an utter
fallacy to suppose that tie turf would
be in any way purified by eonvicting and
throwing the blame on people until they
were proved to be guilty
Lord CreWe added that the question OF
unfair riding would occupy the close at
teation of the Jockey Club during the
coming season. He thought that "dop-
ing" had gained yery undue amount
of n toriety in the press. It was, so far
as England was concerned, not at all an
urgent question He said in conclusion
that he believed the turf was in better
shape than 1t was years ago.
