It was certainly good messenger
who brought the news to your house
that Ayers Sarsaparilla makes the
blood "rich and red" This means
so much to those who are thin, pale,
feeble, weak, and nervous. After
Ayers Sarsaparilla has cured you,
carry the glad message to a friend or
reighbor.
Perhaps you suffer from the effects
of a warm climate. Prolonged warm
weather seriously impairs the strength
of many people. The digestion is
slow, and the liver becomes sluggish.
Impurities in the blood accumulate
and cause that feeling of downhearted-
ness and depression.

Success of Venture on Few Cars
Results in Scheme to En-
large Service Greatly.

Auto taxicabs have grown on Wash
ington people until they are now inn
pOrtant parts of the city cab service.
The sixteen that were in use during the
summer have been inadequate, and as
fast as the factory could send new
ones they have been put in use here.
So important has become this part Of
auto service here that the Thomas
Taxicab Company Of Washington, which
has introduced these modern convent
ences to this city, has been put under
the direct management of F. ". Thorn
as, brother of +. r. Thomas. the great
auto manufacturer. Mr.. Thomas has
come TO Washington 10 properly handle
the business and his efforts have put
new life into the business.
Mr.. Thomas is an expert on autos.
He made this particular branch Of the
business a study. And his methods
have proven successful. He is not only
master OF the principles of taXicabs gem
orally, from a technical point of view.
but he IS also one of the pioneers in
devising the proper clerical methods Of
handling the business. Mr.. Thomas has
done much to encourage the use OF taxi
cabs all over the country. but chiefly
here, where he still remains to direct
the business for the winter season.
He also wants 10 see a new idea work
ed out. This is the town car, "a taSiceb

it is expected. will be well received. for
there are many admirers Of autos who
use them only occasionally.
THE whole auto taXicab service has
been a great success" says Mr.. Thorn
as. I am much pleased with the
progress We have made in building up
the service here. And when we put the
new town cars I'm use, ] am sure the
public will be pleased. The cars will
be large and handsome. They viii be
of the same general construction as the
taxicabs already here, but they will
be more elaborate. Washington is going
to like them. And it is also going %
use the taXicabs more this year than
ever before"

Belmont Garage No Agency
Hysan Only Cares for AutoS

A garage that devotes Itself to being
a garage, that takes care Of cars as
its speciality, instead of housing them
incidentally, in order to be in touch
with the owners Of cars so as to sell
them new ones, has been opened in
Washington.
1t is the Belmont Garage. at 17r-l713
Fourteenth street northwest. l. V.
Hysan, the proprietor. has carried out
the European idea. He believes that
garage is indicated by its name as a
station house for automobiles. He has
set out 70 see how well he can do that
particular thing And judging from the
success of his first month I'm the bust
ness, Washington likes the idea.
The Belmont is known to auto drivers
as the garage without an agency"
That means a good deal to owners. II
a man owns a foreign car or a domestic
car it doesn't make any difference to
Mr.. Hysan. For he keeps a squad Of
mechanics and electricians y who are
trained on all the cars that are sold
The Belmont hasn't automobiles to
sell. But ii sells space 10 house them.
1t sells the comforts that go with auto
driving. II keeps the cars clean and
bright.
Has Many Experts.
1t has experts to inspect them. It has
the brass and the silver and the nickel
polished. It keeps the finest and the
most modest cars guarded from any
thing that could hurt them. And il has
an auto hospital STAFF that cares for
all the troubles that a badly acting en-
CINE or an unruly car can make.
It's a big place that the Belmont Of
ore 70 n
with two floors devoted to the bust
ness. There is splendid room for sixty
five cars. The building was erected for
the purpose. It is one that wouldn't
burn II it were set ahre. The floor is
of cement, and the walls Of brick with
iron Orders and supporting pillars. It's
simple, but it has lots OF Things one
doesn't see at first. 1t is a great. big
room that is kept at a reasonable tenn
perature, so that there is never any
heat or cold to injure tires or cause
any difficulty whatever
Convenience Is First.
Convenience for the auto owner is
the one big object Of the Belmont 1t is
always open for business, day or night.
A telephone call viii bring experts for
emergency repairs. At the garage. in
the repair shop upstairs. the men who
know the machines can do ,nything
that can be done 10 a car. And they do
it quickly, and with skill Mr. Hysan
keeps them because they are experts.
and because he wants to please the auto
owners.
But that's merely one of the reasons
for the garages existence. There are
others. In fact. Mr.. Hysau relieves an
auto owner of all responsibility If de-
sired. He cares for the auto. he keeps
it clean and sparkling, with the ma
chinery in perfect tune. and when the
owner wants his car he has only TO tnle-
