Whv Tears Flow.

All human emotions, however slight
they may be, either decrease or In
crease the circulation of the blood.
Those emotions that bring tears cause
the blood vessels around the eyes to
expand, thus flooding the lachrymal or
tear glands with blood. The tear
glands always secrete little to keep
the eyes cool and moist and carry of
specks Of dust through the nasal pas
sages, but the extra supply of blood
increases this secretion to such an ex-
tent that it cannot go off in the usual

diticn OF the roads require not only
strength and power, but also ability
to climb with ease the steepest grades.
1t is to meet and overcome such diff
culties as exist here that these ma
chimes are placed on the market.
POPE CARS
The new Pope cars make stronger
claim than ever for supremacy. and
certainly give every evidence of the
highest quality of construction
throughout. The Pope Toledo retains
its meritorious inverted U section
frame, and is radically changed in re-
spect to the engine. Probably the de-
tail that attracts the most attention
is the fitting of Hess Bright silent ball

interest. Both the Pope Hartford and
the Pope-Tribune present numerous
improvements that Will appeal strong
" to the buyers of moderate priced
cars.
LOzIER
A great number of cars will be ex-
hibited that are not generally known
on this coast Notwithstanding that
they have the very best reputation in
the East, and the visitor win be sur
prised to find great many cars on
exhibition that he has never heard of.
In what may be ciassed as the new
cars is the Lozier This is high
priced, four-cyiinder, seven passenger
car. 1t merits more than q casual in
spection. A great many distinctive
features not found on any other motor
car are Incorporated in its makeup.
BUICK AND APPERs0N
Everybody is looking for something
new and the auto enthusiast will find
something entirely new in the exhibit
of the Howard Automobile Company
in booth 81. The Howard Company, in
addition to showing full line of the
one OF the several styles of runabouts
and cars from the factory OF the Ap-
person Brothers
All Knox cars for next season will
not be. shaft-driven; only one model,
termed II. 25-30-horsepower touring
car, will be so featured The big 40
50-horsepower machine, however. will
still use double chain drive and the
smaller machines with horizontal cylin-
ders continuing with the single chain
system.
RAINIER
The Rainier automobile for 1907, with
the official title OF Model c, while pre-
senting no radical departures from this
years B, takes on a number OF i'm
/ provements that are in the nature of
refinements rather than new depart
ures.
OLDSMOblLE
Given chassis OF practical design,
it today serves the general require
ments of the trade when it is equipped
with choice Of the three styles of
bodies: touring cars, runabouts and
( linlousines. Under these conditions
automobile construction at least ap-
proaches enduring design. This con-
dition represents the standard for 1907
pleasure cars as made by the olds

function in 1906 cars. 1t might be
truthfuIly said that the 1907 Dragon
cars do not offer one single new and
untried feature. and it can also be said
with equal truth that no element of
the Dragon car is inferior to the best
functional equivalent in any 1907 tour
ing automobile.
The Dragon is made in two models,
a 24-2s-horsepower runabout and tour
ing car, each having the same chassis.
The motor is OF the four-cylinder verti-
cal type under the hood, with a four
and a half inch stroke and four
inch bore. 1t develops 1926 horse
power. French rating, at 1900 revolu-
! tions, and is water-cooled with the

latter four-speed change gear Of the
selective. sliding type. The former
model is shaft driven and the latter
6ouble chain driven.
FORD
The line OF cars offered this year by
the Ford Motor Company embody the
usual Ford ideas. 1t is Mr.. Ford's de-
sire TO build a car that viii not be out
OF date next year nor the next year,
nor the year after that. The idea OF
an automobile user thinking he has TO
change cars every year IS as absurd
as it would have been for the owner of
\ carriage to feel that rig of that
character was only good for one sea-
son.
Slight changes in constructional de-
tails and in general outlines. viii make

lures OF the previous REQ models have
been retained.
Carrying four passengers when the
folding rear seat is raised and having
the appearance OF a regular two-pas-
senger car when the rear seat is folded,
the REQ runabout is a car that appeals

noiseless. odorless and free from vibra-

TONIC FOR MOTHERS
Or. Williams Pink Pills Are Safe and ReIiabIe-A Favorite Household
 Rep,adv

Motherhood may be the crowning
 sAing of a woman's life or it may bring grief and sorrow. Mrs. M. J. Wight, of ITO Seventh Street, Auburn, Maine, relates her experience after the birth of her daughter in 1901, as fol lows: "I was all run down at the time the baby came and did not inn prove in health rapidly after l was pale, thin and bloodless. My stomach distressed me being full of gas all the time and my heart fiuttered so that I could scarcely breathe.
 Finally remembered that friend had recommended Dr. Williams Pink Pills to me so I commenced using them. l gained in strength rapidly while the baby throve also. When I expected my next child I started talk ing the pills again as a tonic and strengthener and had no such diffi- culty as before. I got up better and my strength came back much sooner.
 "A year ago last winter I had an at- tack of rheumatism in the hands which went from one hand to the other. The joints swelled up and were so stiff could not move them. The pain ex- tended up through my arms and shoulders. felt sick enough to go to bed but did not do so. This attack lasted for several months. I tried sev- eral remedies but finally came back to using the pills which had done me so much good before and found that they benefited me almost at once. l have not been troubled since"
 All druggists sell Dr. Williams Pink Pills, or they will be sent by mail postpaid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per box, six boxes for s250, by the pr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y. Send for book of cures.
