BUICK HAS HIT
POPULAR vein
LARGEST SHIPMENT or CARS
EVER BROUGHT TO NORTH pA.
koTA WAS CONSIGNMENT or
BUCKS GATE CITY AUTO CO.,
LOCAL AGENCY HAVE BIG YEAR

Perhaps there is not car of it's class
which has struck the popular vein
more decidedly than the Buick. The
makers of this car, the Buick Motor
company of Flint. Michigan. have sure
~ listened to the public demand and
complied with the wishes of the great
host of prospective purchasers of pop
ular priced cars. Every year this COM
pany has sprung sensation In the
way Of moderate priced car, and this
year the makers have made no excep-
ton to the rule.
The latest creations of the Buick
Co. Is the Buick Model 40" which
caused such stir at the recent Madi-
son Square Automobile show in New
York city. This car has four cylinders
cast in pairs with overhead valves. 1t
Is equipped with magnetic and FIVE
lamps, tools, tool box and horn COM
plete for the astounding price of $140O.
In demonstrations locally this car has
taken the steepest hills in this section
on high speed with FIVE passengers
aboard and easily develops a mile-a-
minute speed. This is surely holding
up TO the Buick standard, and this
company will show the public again
that they can put out a car possessing
almost wonderful speed at cost with
in the average mans reach.
In connection with the Buick IL is
well worth mentioning that this week
there was shipped from Minneapolis
into North Dakota the largest ship
ment Of cars ever consigned to a North
Dakota agency. This consisted of
solid train load of Bucks consigned to
Horton & Co, agents at Mayville and
Devils Lake seventy five cars at one
lick. This agency states that the ma
jority of their cars are sold to farmers
and the conclusion is that it pays to
be North Dakota farmer and raise
dollar wheat.
The Gate City Auto Co, Of Fargo,
who are local agents for the Buick and
Oakland automobiles state that their
sales this season have surpassed any
previous year of the agency and they
are able to dispose of every car that
they can secure from the manufacture
ers. Messrs. Field and Schofield, own
ers of the Gate City garage, are busy
daily demonstrating their cars to in
tending buyers.

HICKS and SON
in The GAME
WELL KNOWN MEN FROM HIck.
SON ENTER THE AUTOMOBILE
BUSINESS IN FARGO WITH A
I STRONG LINE OF MEDIUM
PRICED CARS.

Prominent among the new automo-
bile dealers in Fargo is the firm of
Lewis Hicks & Son. They have re-
Gently established salesrooms. at the
Union Transfer Company's building at
Tenth street and N. P. avenue, and
have fortunately acquired two exceed
ingly attractive lines of cars-The
Halliday cars, and The Staver.
The Halliday cars are built at
Streater, Illinois where the plant has
grown in the past seven years from a
small shop to a big factory where ca -
pacity is tested to the utmost in flI-
ing the growing demand for cars.
Nine models ranging in price from
Sl,lO0 to $4,000 give the Halliday buy-
er splendid variety to select from.
The same high grade of construction
prevails in the lowest priced model
that is put in the most expensive. The
difference in price is based on the
difference in power and size.
Staver cars are built by the famous
Staver Carriage Company. The name
OF this company attached to the car
IL alone sufficient guarantee OF its
merit, and the prices $1,000 and $1,s50
are popular amounts. Unquestionably
the Staver is beautiful, handsomely
finished car. 1t has, moreover, per-
formed we'll in every road test that IL
has undertaken. Owners of this car
are using extravagant terms of praise
as to its efficiency.
Lewis Hicks and son come from
Hickson. They are we'll known in this
part of the state and popular for their
genial characteristics and high bust
ness ethics. Their many friends pre-
dict that the splendid lines of cars
and the pleasing personalities of these
local representatives make a combina-
ton that will meet with certain sue
cess from the start.

new HUDSON GAR
WEARS TRIANGLE
FIRST 1910 HUDSON ARRIVES
TRADE MARK TRIANGLE CAR
RED ON THE RADIATOR FULL
OF MEANING TO HUDSON MAX.
ERs, DEALERS AND OWNERS.

Fecxler Brothers, local agents for
the Chalmers Detroit and Hudson au-
tomobiles, have just received their first
Hudson car which bears on it's radiator
the triangle trade mark of the Hud-
son Motor Car Co.
An interesting story is related re-
garding the Triangle: 1t seems that
this trade mark has a purpose beyond
a mere design, and a meaning that lies
deeper than the surface The first side
of the Hudson triangle represents the
work of the designer who planned the
car and the factory workers who built
1t; it represents the long time spent
by the engineers in working out the
right designs, the exhautive tests of
materials and parts in the factory and
of models on the road; the high grade
work of thousands Of skilled me-
chanics.
The second side of the triangle
might be taken to represent the cor
dial welcome dealers all the country
gave the Hudson. There. were 1852
cars asked for by wire in a few days
by dealers, who were willing to put
up their money, after reading the
specifications and the personnel of the
company, without seeing the finished
product In the first thirty days after
their announcement they disposed of
the entire output to dealers.
The third side of the Hudson TRAN
gle is the side which completes II.
That Is the side of the owners. A car
must make good with the people who
buy 1t, before the story of it is com
plete The evidence that the cars are
making good in daily service In the
hands of owners-shows that the fri
angle is finished The owners test Is
the final test, so the triangle comes to
s. Ind for the completed story-the
work of the builders, the confidence
Of the dealers, and the satisfaction Of
the owners.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infiamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing and
when it is entirely closed, deafness is
the result and unless the inflamma-
ton can be taken out and this tub,
restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever:
nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous surface.
We will give 800 for any case Of
