And Now Here Ii Is

May just a word of advice to prospective buyers of
automobiles be permitted
If you are buying a car for the first time, avoid the
mistake made by many people.
Put enough money into your first car to insure get
ting an all-around satisfactory automobile at the
start. Don't make the right ar-which you'll buy
in the end anyway-cost you two prices by expert
menting or working up to it through two or three
unsatisfactory cars.
The money you lose on the sale of these cars is all a
part of your utomobiI nvestment-consequentIy
it makes the right car you finally get cost you twice
as much as it ought to. 49,
Furthermore-the extremely low cost of mainten-
ance, the absence of trouble, and the keen permanent
enjoyment you will experience if you buy the right
car now, GU would not expect to secure in the pur-
chase of a temporary car.
You should consider the Haynes car from the
standpoint of economy.

Let Us Send You All the Facts About
This Superb Car

Whether you buy this car or not you owe it to your
self to investigate.
HAYNES Car at 100000 is certainly too good
a proposition to pass up' if You are in the market
for an automobile.
This Model 10 is as appropriate Tin style, finish,
speed, and general appointments for the present
owner of three or four cars who wants to add a
snappy, speedy, flexible car to his garage, as it is
for the man who is h buying for the first or second time
and who wants a ear that will be as satisfactory next
year and the next as it is when he buys it.
Omaha daily bee., 1909-09-26

And here is where an established reputation for
superior construction (such as is back of the Haynes)
is Of immense value to the buyer.
1t is practically his only guarantee that the car he
buys will be all he expected it to be.
1t is his ony definite assurance that his car will be
a l~ong-lived car for all-round service.
And it is his only possible safeguard against the
weaknesses that are apt to develop in cars that are
more or less of an experiment, or that are built to sell
at a cheap price.
A HAYNES car is the Government Bond" of
automobile investment.
Omaha daily bee., 1909-09-26
Satisfaction in Buying the Best

Then there is the indescribable satisfaction of driv.
ing a superior car-the joy that comes, and comes
only, to the driver of a thoroughbred.
Motoring can never be enjoyed to the utmost unless
you are absolutely sure of your car-unless you know
that the manufacturer has given you that immunity
from trouble that can only be given with a car built
as the Haynes is built.
Omaha daily bee., 1909-09-26
What You Get When You Buy a Hayne,

In buying a Haynes you get the experience of the
oldest automobile manufacturers in the United
States. CEIwood Haynes built the first American
motor car in 1881
Omaha daily bee., 1909-09-26

Mr.. Haynes was the first manufacturer in the
United States or Europe to use nickel steel.
He was the first to employ aluminium in motor cars.
He was the first to use a magnetic on motor cars.
And he was the first to introduce roller bearings in
Automobile construction.
More than this, every important feature introduced
by Mr.. Haynes in automobile construction has be-
come standard in the cars that have followed the
Haynes.
You get in this model 10 a car made by concern
that has never made anything else but high class cars
and that does not believe it possible to put real salts
faction into a cheap car-though we could probably
build a much better cheap car than any other manu-
~facturer.
Haynes cars have won fl First Prizes, medals or
perfect scores in Al consecutive tests-the best posi-
bic proof Of our persistent adherence to a high grade
only policy. (No other car, American or foreign, at
any price, can show a like record of victories in CON
tests of all kinds.)
And you get all the benefit of this reputation and
record this positive guarantee of highest quality
in this Model 10 for 100000. Note specifications
above.
More than this-we demonstrate in this Model 10
that it's unnecessary to pay over 100000 for the
best car it is possible to build.
The car itself will prove this claim.
Omaha daily bee., 1909-09-26
Value of Established Reputation

Probably not one buyer in a hundred is mechanic
enough to buy a car on his own responsibility.
Are you(
Even the simplest car is a fairly intricate PROPOSE
ton to the nOvice-so much 50 that it affords a maker
abundant opportunity to skimp in scores of places
and still make a car that will run satisfactorily at
the start.
Omaha daily bee., 1909-09-26
Buy for Permanently

And bear this in mind, that once you buy a car you
will never be satisfied without one-nor will you ever
be content until you own a car that is as good a car
as you can buy.
Then why not take advantage of this fact and save
at least 81, 100000 at the start by getting a HAYNES,
especially since you can get one for only a little more
than you are asked to pay for the temporary car.

PINEAPPLE SPONGE

and not mention tomato soup, which is
a general favorite and very easily made
1t may be said right here that all these
soups are simple, but three things be-
ing required in the end: smooth liquid
of the consistency desired, good sea-
soning, and what | mentioned first, that
they should be served hot.
All these things by practice and fore
thought are possible to the youngest
cook, and in a short time she will grow
to find making soups an easy and pleas
ant part of preparing dinner But if
we are to make tomato soup, we must
be about it, for after all, practice is
quite as much a part of our training as
theory.
Take a quart of tomato, either a quart
can or the same amount of the fresh
vegetable when stewed. Put this in
your soup-kettle and add a pint of boil
ing water, a tablespoonful of chopped
onion, four whole cloves, one teaspoon
full of sugar, one teaspoonful of salt
and one-quarter of a teaspoonful of
pepper, letting the whole boil together
from twenty minutes to half an hour.
This soup, like all those made without
the double boiler, has to be carefully
watched to see that it does not boil
away, and hot water may be added to
keep the original amount Of liquid.
Let Tomato Soup Simmsr
When the soup has reached this point
it is time to strain, as in the case Of
the pea soup, but it is we'll to use the
masher judiciously in order not to force
the tomato seeds through the strainer.
Return the strained liquid to the soup
kettle and put back to heat. Melt in
a saucepan a tablespoonful of butter and
add a heaping tablespoonful of -four,
Thicker as for the potato soup, and let
it simmer for ten minutes.
Perhaps there is no soup which it IS
so necessary for a cook to taste as to-
mato soup, for the degree of vegetable
acid differs greatly, and while unpleasant
if too much it is easy to counteraCt by
adding a little more sugar or a salt
spoonful of soda. Salt and pepper, too,
may not be in right proportion, the fault
being again in the variableness of the
vegetable.
This is the simplest tomato soup which
one can make, and because it may seem
to you too easy and too ordinary, l
am going to give you the recipe for
mock bisk This is more of a company
soup.

and one-half saltspoonful of white pep

your tomato and return to the kettle,
When you are quite ready to serve the
soup, add saltspoonful Of soda to the
tomato and pour it into the thickened
milk, mixing it we'll
You may wonder at this precsution,
and as l mean to tell you "the reason
why" of everything, you may we'll ask
why the two parts of the soup might
not be mixed at once, and save you the
trouble of an extra something TO do at
the last moment.
The answer is not far 10 seek, and
perhaps you have guessed already-be-
cause | have told you to countersct the
acid of tomato with soda-that the &C
ton of the acid in the milk might be to
curdle it. To avoid this trouble be sure
that your milk has boiled, that the soda
has permeated the entire tomato, and
then do not hunt for trouble" by letting
the two cook together

snlIt.Pss Scum Easily Made

Perhaps we will begin with the most
old-fashiOncd Of them all, a split-pea
soup. This takes time 10 make, which
seems to be true Of almost every dish
which was a favorite with our grand
parents.
To get the most from your peas, you
should soak them over night in cold
water. one Cupful of the dried vegetable
to three pints Of water. By morning
they should be slightly softened, and
may be set upon the stove in the soup
kettle to cook slowly until they are
thoroughly soft
An onion cut in small pieces should
be added at once The soup should be
watched and stirred occasionally as a
means Of determining how fast the peas
are softening Also hot water should
be added in case the soup bOils away
in its lengthy cooking. Three or four
hours of simmcring should suffice for
this, and, if it does not, you may know
that the peas have been kept too long
and have hardened beyond hope.
If you start your pea soup early and
yet do not wish to serve it until late,
it does no harm to set the kettle on
the back Of the stove to wait. Shortly
before dinner the kettle may be brought
to the front of the stove and allowed
to boil before it is taken from the fire

but our meals are more complicated
things, and we may water our por-
ridge" only by cooking an additional
something easy, quick to make, and one
for which the ingredients are always at
hand. Such a one is the potato soup.
Soup without Stock
For this you may use the following
ingredients and proportions: To every
pint of milk use three medium-sized
potatoes, one tablespoonful of chopped
onion, one teaspoonful of salt, a speck
of white pepper, One-half tablespoonful
of -four and the same amount of butter.
This will make the best soup, of
course, but if milk is not to be spared
or not easily obtainable, you may use
milk and water of equal parts, and in
the same way beef dripping may be
substituted for butter, provided it is
quite pure and clear.
First of all the potatoes should be
washed, pared and boiled, and while
they are cooking put on in the double
boiler the milk and chopped onion.
When the potatoes are done, drain and
mash them, add the milk and rub
through a strainer, afterward putting
the whole back into the double boiler and
on the stove Add seasoning and your
soup is then ready to thicken.
Thickening Soups
l have already given one formula
for thickening soups; this is another
to be used when no liquid is being added,
but when butter is the medium for
smoothing the -four For this you need
to take a small saucepan and melt your
butter, adding the -four by degrees, and
stirring constantly. 1t will take three

Americans is insomnia. he
- national cry is, How can /
get enough Sleep" To answer this
question, it is necessary in the first place
to determine how much sleep is neces-
sary; and in the next place to find out
the cause or causes which prevent it.
The amount of sleep necessary varies
with the individual Some require more
than others, and among such are nervous
people The length of time one sleeps
depends upon habit There are those
who contend that the majority OF people
sleep too much, that they are rendered
inert and stupid in consequence.
The regulation amount of time TO
spend in Sleep is generally set down as
eight hours. Those who lead an active
life in the midst Of the whirl and ex-
element OF the city require more sleep
than those who spend their days ia COM
parative tranquility.
Causes of Insomnia
The causes Of insomnia are many. 1t
may be that the room is not sufficiently
ventilated One cannot sleep in a room
that is close or overheated. The super
stition that night air IS unhealthy is
passing away, since 1t has been demon
strated that health has been restored,
especially in lung troubles, by sleeping
in the open air.
One is often rendered sleepless when
buried under too many bed-cothes. The
head should not be too high; besides
oftentimes preventing sleep, it makes one
round-shouldered Tea and coffee taken
at night will often keep one awake. Tea
and coffee in any great amount are bad
for the nerves and the heart, and should
not be INDUCED in too freely by anyone
at any time.
The digestion and food have much to
do with insomnia. Everyone knows the
wakefulness caused by over-eating or
taking into the stomach before going to
bed that which is rich and indigestible !;
if sleep itself is not banished, the SUM
Der is disturbed by unpleasant dreams
and Nightmares. Sleeplessness may also
be occasioned by hunger, which gives a
gnawing sensation to the stomach.
Worry and Anxiety
The greatest disturbance to sleep is
that occasioned by worry and anxiety.
These and other states OF mind result in
an over-activity OF the brain. The head
