You Can't Judqe a Car

by simply casting your eye over
it. You might as we'll judge of
the amount of money in a safe
by looking at the combination
on it. Plenty of cars there be
which will pound away and keep
going in first-class style so long
as a first class machinist is con-
stantly hanging over them and
listening to their slightest clam
or for attention. Automobiles
that have that jerky, ire
sponsible way of running and
that forever out of-order"
habit are never cheap, however
low the price may be.
But the Ford" is the car that
gets next to your affections by
the steady work of it's double
opposed motor under all reason
able conditions and with the
very minimum of attention.
The Ford" does not require
machinist to run it. In the
matter of speed. it will run as
desired, from five to thirty
miles an hour. 1t will run
through mud. sand or water bet
ter than the heavier machines
which cost much more and are
no better. Strongly powered,
easy to drive, speedy and
splendid hill climber, the Ford
stands to-day absolutely alone
and incompatible at it's price.
Everyone Knows
that Ford cars are good cars"
because they are simple in con-
struction, and the principle of
their construction is the only
correct one. Anyone can shout
''best;" lots do. But we do
more-we stand back of the
Ford" with our written guar
antee, and offer to allow free
trial and use before asking you
to bind yourself in any way,
shape or manner.
Drop in and let US tell you
about automobiles in general
and the Ford" kind in partic-
ular. Let us take you out in
one and show you how nicely
and quietly it runs, without
any jar or vibration, and how
easily it is to operate. That's
the test that tells-the test that
sells a Ford" every time. We
have plenty of Fords in stock
and can deliver promptly. No
waiting.
The "Pope- WaverIey"
EIecfKicS
which represent the highest at
tainment in successful electric
vehicle construction, continues
to make good" and are becom-
ing more popular every day.
They are always ready, dur
able, reliable, easily operated,
speedy and of beautiful design
and finish. The "Waverley"
electric has no mechanism of
an enigmatical nature, which
must be solved each time the
vehicle is operated. It's opera
ton is simplicity itself.
All the "hitching strap" need
ed to insure you that your
"Waverley" will be where you
left it, is to take out the start
ing plug and put it in your
pocket.
Sundies, Repairing
and Storage.
We carry a complete stock of
supplies, and our prices are
right. Machines left with us for
repairs or storage are given the
very best attention, and our
charges are reasonable. Give
us a trial next time.

There Never
Was a Time

mere Never
Was a Time
When competition was more
strenuous among makers and
vendors of automobiles than
now. This fact, while it has
done much for the public in re-
ducing the prices of automo-
biles and improving the designs.
methods of making, etc, has
also tended towards the manu-
facture and sale of cars totally
unworthy of even the low price
asked for them.
Without any idea of knock
ing" we remind you of this
fact and also take occasion to
assure you that the Ford cars
are good cars" because Henry
Ford has never been satisfied
to rest on his oars, but has ever
kept watchful eye for the
slightest chance to improve the
car that bears his name.
The Improvements in the
Ford" have been many; and
those who ride in it to-day are
delighted and surprised to see
what it accomplishes. 1t has a
double-opposed motor which
rides as smoothly as a Pullman
coach. The unpleasant vibration
of other machines at it's price,
and even machines higher in
price, is entirely absent in the
Ford" For this reason ladies
in particular enjoy automobiling
ever so much more in a Ford"
than in most other cars-for the
reason that it rides so smoothly.
1t has taken a long time and
many years experience for
Henry Ford to bring his car up
to where it now is. He is max
ing better cars to-day than he
made year ago, and those were
good. A year from now we shall
expect him to have added some
more new improvements, but the
Ford car you can buy to-day
will be up-to-date for a long
time yet.

THE MANDATES OF FASHION
Striking Features of the Hats and Gowns in Vogue the Cur
 rent Season.

As long as the picture hats remain iN vogue the sweeping ostrich plumes will be used, but on some of the large hats thelr place will be taken by clusters of full, demi-long ostrick tips.
 There are many women who will be pleased to learn that the plain tailor- made coat and skirt are becomingmore and more favorite in the Parisian smart set. The coat will, however. be cut with a basque in the old Newmarket style, having as a waist line seam fol- lowing sloping effect in front corre- spending with the new style corset. chiffon rose craze is now running very high in Parss and from its initial manipulation, which is very miracle of delft lingering, to it's ultimate artistic disposal, either in wreath or In separate clusters, the chiffon rose is an adorn- ment to be accepted and made much of. In effect 1t is as light as dream, each petal standing forth and declaring itself an individual identity. as though verify of natures handiwork
 Chiffon dresses in all sorts of colora are much in evidence at the present. time, brown and moleskin tones sharing favor with gray, and gauging forms th9 principal trimming, with occasional touches of lace, such as valenciennea tucker, or deep cape collar of thread lace. Rows and rows of gauging ar@ used around the waist, around the top of the bodice, heading and founces, and holding the sleeves down at the shoulN der. t New belts combine Bulgarian em< broidery strips with leather in many novel ways. One of these belts is about four inches wide. The middle is made of the loose handloom linen worked in the bright colors usual to it. The sides of the belt are bordered with black kids which is scalloped on the inner edga against the linen. The belt closes in the front with two narrow kid straps and gun metal buckles. Kid in black and colors also edges satin belts. These belts are all of the soft, unlined orders
 Buttons appear on some of the new belts and girdles. These are not ap~ piled in small sizes for decoration, but are for use. They are large enough to fasten closely. The use of piece of whalebone inserted in it's casing on each side of the fitted girdle helps to' keep it in shape, but it is hard on the fingers which perform the duty. Some girls use a slender buttonhook to fasten their girdles where buttons are useds, This keeps them from pinching theirI fingers.

Liquid Air.

An experiment. for the purpose of testing the durability Of liquid air has been made between Berlin and Geneva. One morning two quarts of liquid air were delivered to the railroad at Ber- lin, packed in a manner specially adapt ed for this purpose, for transportation to Geneva. The shipment arrived in Geneva in Eve days, and after an addi- tional delay of half day it was deliy- cred to the chemical laboratory of the University of Geneva.

There is a division of opinion over the matter.

Manager O'Rourke of Bridgeport threatens to make trouble for Meriden over the signing of Reyes, the new third baseman. O'Rourke wanted both Reyes and Pitcher Odell and has se- cured Odell O'Rourke claims that he asked Reyes for his terms last week and Reyes sent them Monday MT O'Rourke immediately telegraphed to Reyes, accepting his terms, but much to his surprise received the reply that Reyes had signed with Meriden. ''Un- cle oeems'' says that Reyes will have to play in Bridgeport or nowhere. Ac- cording to the rules of the national association, a man cannot sign with 2 club after he has accepted terms from another club. Manager O'Rourke has notified Secretary Farrell of Keyess action and expects that the third base man will be awarded to Bridgeport. The facts are that O'Rourke did not send an acceptance of Keyes's terms until Tuesday night, and Reyes was signed by 4- anager Kennedy after Mondays game.

Ror removing stains and spots from Mvatory basin and bathtub kerosene cannot be equaled.
 When making a pudding don't forget 10 make plait in the cloth at the top of your basin, so as to allow the pudding room to swell.
 To keep jam from mildew dip rounds of white paper into the white of an egg and lay on the tops of the jars or pots. Cover closely and the jam will keep per- fectly clear of all mildew for any length of time.
 To preserve stair carpets put pads of old blankets on each step. If there is no store of ancient blankets to draw from a substitute may be made of several tlicknesses of brown paper.
 Drawing room chairs and sofas which have become shabby may be made use- full by the thrifty housewife if she clothes them all in petticoat covers of cretonne, by which is meant covers with deep frills sewed on all round.
 A few drops of kerosene oil will do much toward starting particles of dust from machinery. If a clock is to be cleaned, it can be done effectively by placing in the lower part soft cloth saturated with kerosene. The bits of dirt and particles of dust will be loosened by the vapors and will drop down and can be removed
 BCeswax and turpentine polish for linoleum is hard to beat as far as ap- pearance is concerned, but it has one defect; it causes a slipperiness which may be very dapNerous to children and old people. A pSeish which has no such objection is made of equal parts of lin- seed oil and vinegar. Apply a little to a flannel cloth rub it we'll on the linoleum and polish with clean, dry cloth.
 Velvet is now so much used that it is cleanse it. Velvet that has been spotted by rain may be restored by passing the wrong side quickly over vessel of boil- ing water, then over warm iron, which a second person should hold. Another mode is to use very hot iron covered by & cloth wrung out of hot water. The velvet back may touch the iron in this case. the process being literally com- bination of ironing and steaming. For large pieces of velvet a heated brick can be covered and used in the same way. Owing to the greater surface time is saved. The pile may be brushed up with a soft brush if very badly injured. The first mode is recommended only for slightly damaged velvet. The dust should be brushed or shaken out before resorting to any action of heat and any grease spots removed by benzine.
