MEETING HELD TODAY
unimportant Matter to be consid
ered--Local Meeting Only
Short Time
Off.

With the exception of the move
ments of few of the managers of
the league and a few newspapers
throughout the circuit affairs in the
Central Association are as quiet as
ever. There is very little to occupy
the minds of the managers with the
exception of the coming mid-winter
meeting which will probably be held
within the next two weeks. The
meeting was postponed sometime ago
because several of the directors and
managers wanted to attend the
worlds series and at the present
time Presiden tJustice finds it incon-
yenient to himself hold a meeting.
Justice states, however, that the
meeting will be held very shortly and
affairs of the league adjusted.
The matters to be brought before
the attention of the meeting are only
few minor ones that will have to
be disposed Of Everything has been
running as smoothly as possible and
the season closed successful in ey.
cry way. That any radical changes
VIII be made as predicted by several
OF the newspapers are ridiculous and
the meeting should be very har-
monious one.

A VERY SMALL
GASOLINE engine
The Gasoline Engine, Which is Of the
Smallest Of Designs and Was
On Display at
Weber's.
E. a. Quiroz, Who Represents the
Scott Mfg. Co, Will Sell the
Model in Connection
With Plants.


Many of the street fair visitors who
saw the tiny little gasoline engine OF
the Kollmyer & Talbot engine build
ing Co, in the window Of the a.
Weber Co, during the fair week. will
be interested in knowing that this
little engine is to take a trip.
r a. sQuiroz, a young Spanish gen
tleman from Old Mexico, and travel
ing representative of the Scott Man
ufacturing Co. in that country and in
South America. is to take the little
engine to the natives of those coun.
and sell a large model of the gasoline
engine to the natives fthose coun-
tries who operate brick plants and
other different manufacturing plants.
Quiroz will sell the plants of the
Scott people and will sell in connec-
ton the gasoline engine of which
the tiny engine is the model.
During the fair week the engine
was used to operate a churn which
was in the display window of the
Weber hardware store and attracted
much attention, especially of those
who We're interested in this Kind of
mechanical display.
The measurements of the engine
will explain to those, who did not get
to see the small model, some idea as
to its size.
1t is one sixth the size of the large
engine which will be sold.
Is of one-tenth horsepower.
Has fly wheel seven inches in di-
ameter.
Is twelve inches in length at the
base
Is IA inches in height over the fly.
Has one-inch bore and two-inch
stroke.
AS much labor and careful work
was put in on this little engine as is
put on the engine which is six times
its size. The price of it if sold would
De about 5000 or 1925.

Wilkinson & Go. makes this square
deal offer because. he is authorized to
do so by the makers Of AIi-o-na tablets,
and he is willing to have this state
ment appear in The Gate City because
ne knows the offer is. genuine.
And while il may be that there are
about cases in 100 that are too far
gone fer alMii-1-la to cure. we are willing
and ready to take all the chances, and
if Mi-o-na does not cure, ar dyspeptic
can have his money back.
Even With this liberal offer Wilkin.
son & Co. will not have to refund but
very small percentage, because the
8 incurable dyspeptics viii find so
much relief in Mi-o-na tina they will
once again look upon the sunny side Of
life, and will continue to use Mi-o-,ls
Now, reader, you may say how can
the makers of Mi-o-na make such an
offer? How do they know that 80 per
cent OF the users will be cured and
that the other s per cert or the incur.
ables, will be relieved?
Why, it's all very simple. We've
made this same offer in 1000 towns be-
fore we made it here, and wehaye fig
ured out the percentages, SO that when
we make the statement we know it to
be absolutely true.
