or hurting, and costs less than many
ordinary trusses. There are no springs
or hard lumpy pads and yet 1t holds
the rupture safely and firmly without
pain or Inconvenience. I have put
the price so low that any person, rich
or poor, can buy, and / absolutely
guarantee 1T.
1 make it to your order-send it to
you-you wear it, and if it doesn't
satisfy you send it back to me and |
will refund your money without ques-
ton.
That is the fairest proposition ever
made by rupture specialist. The
banks or the postmaster here in Mar
shall will tell you that is the way do
business-always absolutely on the
square.
Here is what Mr.. James Britton, a
prominent manufacturer of Bethle-
hem, Pa, writes:
&C. E. Brooks, Esq. Dear Sir:
have been ruptured six years and have
always had trouble with 1t till I got
your appliance. 1t is very easy to
wear, fits neat and snug, and is not in
the way at any time, day or night. In
fact at times I did not know 1 had ii
on. 1t just adapted itself to the shape
Of the body and chung to the spot nc
matter what position I was in 1t
would be veritable God-send to the
unfortunate who suffer from rupture
If all could procure the Brooks Rup-
ture Appliance and wear it. They
certainly would never regret it. MY
rupture is all healed up and nothing
ever did it but your appliance. James
Britton."
If you have tried most everything
else, come to me. Where others fail Is
where have my greatest success
Write me today and will send yol
my book on Rupture and its Cure
showing my appliance and giving 20,
prices and names of people who have
tried it and been cured. 1t is instan
relief when all others fail. Remember
I use no salves, no harness. no lies
Just a. straight business deal at 8
reasonable price. c. E. Brooks. ITO:

LAST HALF OF MONTH TO BE

Prof. Irl Hicks Makes Forecasts for
the Ground Hog Month-First Part
of Month Will Not be so Disagree
abIe-Changes to Warmer.

Good weather and bad, cold waves,
and severe storms are predicted for
February by Prof. Irl Hicks. The pro-
fessor's forecasts for the grounding
month are as follows:
A reactionary storm period is in
progress as February comes in, with
moon at first quarter and in apogee on
the LIST. On and touching the list and
End, the temperature will react to
warmer, the barometer will fall, and
cloudiness with more or less rain and
snow will pass over most sections,
moving to the eastward. These dis
turbances promise no marked severity
with moderate change to colder fol-
lowing.
A regular storm period is central
on the 9Th, extending from the 9Th to
the 9th. Within this period the moon
will be at extreme north declination on
the 9Th and full on the 9th. BY the
9th the barometer will begin falling in
western sections, winds change to
southerly and easterly and clouds will
gather. AS these conditions begin to
move eastward about the 9Th, rain will
set in to the east and south of low bar.
ometrici centers and snow will follow
along northern and western sides OF
storm areas. Hence rain, succeeded
by colder and changing to snow will
pass eastwardly across the country
from about the 9Th to the 10th. The
crisis of this period will be on and
touching the 9th Seismic disturb
ances will be natural at this period

AUTOMOBILE RECORDS.

From the appearance of the list of records made on the tracks this year. the fifty-mile one for stock touring cars has been selected by the Thomas ..Flyer" as it's especial prey. At Phil adelphia on Wednesday. August 22nd, on the Point Breeze track, E. R. Kelly made the distance of fifty miles in 1.O3:I924 lowering the last previous record for that distance by over two minutes.
 The fifty mile record for touring cars for the season was established at St. Louis early in the year. The figure made at that time was 1.0S: 90. Soon afterward. on July 4th, Ollie Savin, at Chicago. smashed this by doing the fifty miles in a Thomas Flyer in 1.O6: 19 Just to show what he could do. A. Stanley ZeII at Baltimore took his Thomas at the recent race meet in that city and reeled off fifty miles in 1.OG 3S.
 It remained with E. R. Kelly at the Point Breeze track, however, to bring the former Thomas record down with a tumble to a point where. the chances are, it will remain for some time. In a fully equipped "Flyer" he made the necessary number of circuits of the track in oEe hour. three minutes and nineteen and three quarter seconds. In the race pitted against the Thomas. were four other cars. one of them a car already entered for the Vanderbilt cup race and another a steam automobile that has been used extensively for track work. Every one of these cars was beaten by the Thomas by from two and one-half to five miles. Dur ing the long run the engine on Kelley's gar never missed an exDlOSiOn and was al cool at the finish as if it had run only around the block.
