Don't confuse our cash discount
with CUT PRICES. Anyone can

buy at half of what it is offered and
still pay too much profit.
We DO Not Cut Prices.
We stick to one price to all, and
therefore we can make a reasonable

We want the honest, shrewd buyer
who would rather go and borrow
money at 8 per cent. and pay cash

charged, regardless of price. Save

AUTO CRASHED INTO POLE
DUKE MARSHALL IN A SERIOTS

COIlarbone Fractured, Electric Light

and Auto Wrecked.

and Auto Wrecked.
His collarbone fractured, a
wrecked automobile and an electric
light pole 80 inches in circumfer-
ence broken into three pieces is the
result of ride Mr.. Duke Marshall
took in a car Sunday afternoon.
Mr.. Marshall, who had been work
ing on DR.. Guy Chappell's fast Odds
mobile, stripped the machine and had
IL out for trial spin down Fourth
avenue and when near the home of
Mr. 5. A. Loyless lost control of the
steering gear. The speeding auto
mobile dashed against an electric
light pole, crushing the front part of
the machine, fracturing the transmits
sion, breaking the light pole off near
the ground and again about four feet
higher up, and pitching young Mar
shall distance of several feet in a
semi-circle and breaking his collar
bone. Otherwise the young chauf-
feur was not hurt, and after having
his injury attended to by a physician
superintendent the work of having the
wrecked machine put in shape to be
carried to the garage.
In speaking of the accident Mr.
Marshall said he had the machine
stripped to do some repairing and
was riding on cushion on the gaso-
line tank at pretty rapid rate of
speed. The machine hit a high
spot in the street and in. catch
ing to keep from falling off he sud
denly cut the automobile to the left,
and in a twinkling it hit the cleo
trio light pole, which snapped in two
and fell across the rear of the ma
chine
1t is remarkable that young Mar
shall was not more seriously hurt
or fatally injured.
A case has been made against Mr.
Marshall for violating the speed ordi-
nance, and will be tried before the
mayor.
