Popularity OF the Make for Man OF Moderate
Means Is Demonstrated by Ever-Inereasing
Number of Enthusiastic Users

To its moderate price. it's minimum need OF

uurfvaIIed record for roadability and stand up
qualities is attributed the ever-increaslns pop
,larfty OF the Oldsmobile
Cars have gained and lost in public favor
during the last ten years. but the history OF
the OIdsrnobile shows nothing but triumph
ant progress during that entire period OF time
High price has killed the popularity Of soma
cars. but excessive cost Of maintenance mas
been the greatest obstacle for the majority
On the contrary, the strength OF the Oldsmo-
bile in the motor car field has been due 70 It's
moderate price with the greatest value for the
money and it's low cost Of maintenance.
These two points have appealed TO the man
Of moderate means, and General Cutting, or the
OldsrnobiIe Company Of New York. declares the
phenomenal growth OF MS business is due al
most entirely 10 the enthusiasm OF Oldsrnooils
owners who are always bearing testimony to
the merits Of their cars IN point OF rlooereCs
price and low cost Of keep. In fact, the Olds-
mobile Company regards Oldsmoble owners N
New York as the most in1p 0rtant part OF its
selling force Almost without effort on the
part of its regular statesmen the company IS
breaking all Of its last years weekly selling
records.
The sales during the last week have included
both six and four cyIinder cars The new S2OoO
Model Y. which is an exceptional value IN 4
five passenger car, has been in special demand
II is practically the same as the $3.50 car OF
1907 except that il has little shorter wheei
base and slightly smaller body. This bids fair
to become one OF the most popular cars IN New
York because it has an OldsmobIle engine ana
transmission. which has been used for years,
with only minor refinements. because 1t Is ac-
knowIedged 10 be one Of the best engines and
best transnissiOns ever used in a motor car
The regular New York allotment Of the Olds-
mobile Motor Works output is practically ex-
hausted but through the efforts OF Gen Cutting
a few more 1908 cars may be secured, although
there is no concealment Of the fact that IL
will not be possible TO supply the entire demand
for this years models

Fifty Thousand Head Marketed i'm X.
c. in Two Days.

Kansas City. Sept. 2,1-At the Kansas
City stock yards the past two days
close to 21s million dollars was paid for
stock. OF this amount the greater part
went to Kansas. though Missouri, Ar
kansas, Oklahoma. Texas, New Mex
leo, Arizona. Utah, Idaho. Colorado,
Nebraska and Iowa helped to swell the
two days receipts of cattle to 10000,
$4,000 more than the Chicago receipts.
Nebraska carried off the honors for
the best cattle. A 3-carload bunch
from the Harbaugh ranch sold at $3.50.
Kansas was second with 1928 to 1,421-
pound steers at SIPS to $7.4O, and Mis-
souri, first in the yearling class with
tidy weight beeves at 1915.
On the buying side of the market
twenty-seven states were represented.
Massachusetts and New York were
after export grades, and nearly every
state between here and the Atlantic
coast took butcher grades. A number
of thin cattle went to eastern states.
though Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska Kan
sas and Missouri took most of the feed
ing cattle.
This is the time of the year when the
movement of range cattle is the i'm
portant market factor and Kansas CITY
generally exceeds Chicago in the num-
Der received. About 10000 of the cattIs
received here in the two days were fat
tened on grass, and traders say the
movement of range cattle is lust be-
ginning.

An Eminent Physician
States That Muco-
Solvent is the Only
Known Cure For
All Forms of
Catarrh.

When Muco-Solvent was discovered
DR.. William c. Boteler, of the North
western University of Kansas, and edi-
tor of the North American Medical Re
view, expressed himself emphatically
about the wonderful curative and
gernicidal properties of Muco-Solvent,
Internationally the greatest discovery
of this age.
Catarrh is caused by the presence of
deadly microbes in the mucous mem
branes. Very often ordinary catarrh Of
the head causing the victim, as it does,
to continually hawk and spit, COM
municates itself to the bronchial pas
sages and finally the stomach. The en-
tire stomach becomes diseased; then as
rule follows an almost complete
breaking down, dyspepsia-heartburn-
pains after eating. The liver and kid
neys become deranged, and the circu-
lation becoming affected, the heart
grows weak Nine persons in ten suf-
fer from some form of catarrh, from
the mild in character, to the malignant
type. Muco-Solvent kills every germ.
microbe, or bacteria deadly to the hu-
man system that makes an especial at
tack against the mucous membranes.
Get the catarrhal poison out of your
system, give your stomach a chance
and nature will soon assert sway. You
will be cured of your dyspepsia, of
your weak heart, will rid yourself of
the foul, offensive BREATH and be able
to hold conversation with your fellow
man without noting the look of lily
concealed disgust on his face, caused
by your putrid and offensive breath.
The feeling of lassitude, indisposition
to work, headaches heartburn, dyspep-
STA, etc, are nine times in ten caused
by catarrhal condition. In this condi-
ton you and your family become an
easy prey to Grippe, Colds, Group,
Whooping Cough, Diphtheria, Scarlet
Fever, etc. Once knowing the wonder
full germicidal properties, we consider
it a crime for any person possessed OF
this information to be without it at all
times. 1t is as necessary to the house
hold as soap and water. Ask the drug
gists, they will give you the names of
prominent people whose lives have
been saved by the timely use of Muco-
Solvent. 1t has cured them-it will
cure you, besides giving your family
immunity from the Grip, Colds,
Diphtheria. Scarlet Fever, Whooping
Cough etc. This is a tremendously
strong statement, but every word of it
is true. For sale by Gatlin Drug Co.,

TRIED TO FORCE 1T
Thought System Would Soon Tolerate
Coffee.

A Boston lady tried to convince her
self that she could get used to coffee,
and finally found it was the stronger.
She writes:
when a child, being delicate and
nervous, / was not allowed coffee. But
since reaching womanhood 1 began its
use, and as the habit grew on me,
frequently endeavored to break myself
of it, because of its evident bad eff
fects.
with me the most noticeable effect
of drinking coffee was palpitation of
the heart. This was at times truly
! alarming. and my face would flush I'M
comfortably and maintain it's vivid hue
for some time.
81 argued that my system would
soon accustom itself to coffee, and
continued to use it, although l had a
suspicion that it was affecting my eye
sight, also. The kidneys early showed
effects of coffee, as I found by leaving
| it off for a few days, when the trouble
abated.
FINALLY a friend called my attention
to Postum. At first I did not like it,
but when made right-boiled Is min
utes until dark and rich-I soon found
| Postum was just what 1 wanted. No
| flushing of the face, no palpitation, NO
discomfort or Inconvenience after
/ drinking it,
| "Of course all this was not felt in
a week or two weeks, but within that
time I can truthfully say a marked
| difference had taken place and a great
| deal of my nervousness had vanished
"At present time my health is ex-
| cellent, due to a continued use of Post
UNI, with a general observance OF
proper hygiene. Of nothing am
more convinced than that If had con.
tinued drinking Coffee. I should be to-
day little less than a nervous wreck
and possibly blind"
