10 the average woman, but there is
one woman in New York who knows
all about them. She is Mrs Florence
Reessing. the only woman automobile
broker in the city.
L am not in this business for
pleasure, but for real profit" Mrs.
Reesing said to a representative of the
Herald correspondent today. 1T is not
easy work, especially for woman.
You have to know too much. 1t is ne
cessary TO keep right up with the times
and study all the new types of cars
and accessories that are put on the
market. Otherwise, you could accom-
plish nothing"
The only. woman broker, who was
known along the Great White Way as
1.-The Lady with the Blue Hanson" up
to the time when her husband lost his
fortune, has certainly made success of
her work, in spite Of the fact that she
is a pioneer in it. She is a big, comely
woman, with golden-auburn hair and
great brown eyes. She IS well known

and insisted upon his sitting beside me
on the front seat because he was to
have as much use of the automobile as
she, and the mistress wanted to see
how the dog liked the car. I had TO

Eddie Dugan Arrives to

Eddie Dugan, one of the best jockeys
in the country, has arrived at the Juarez
track and will be seen IN the saddle
Sunday on some OF the BedweIl entries.
Dugan is one OF the big four Of the
high class riders and his work will be
watched with interest during the re-
mainder of the meeting. With Dugan,
Shilling, Archibald and Garner riding
at the track, the spectators are as
sured Of some exciting finishes as these
BOYS are finish riders of the first class
and they ride TO win. Dugan brought
with him his brother. Willie Dugan,
who was a famous jockey before ne
got too heavy 10 ride. He will act as
valet and adviser to his brother J.
Wilson. whose mounts have been con-
fined TO the stable of his father. has
been restored to good standing by the
stewards and may now. accept mounts
from any Of the owners at the track.
Wilson was not suspended but only re-
stricted in his riding because of some

This is the way a driver Of an cleo
trio car in Ell Paso has estimated the
comparative cost of keeping horse
and buggy and Of an electric car. he
has owned an electric for 19 months
now, and feels that he is in position
to speak as an authority on the actual
cost of maintenance Of an electric vic
torla. Not only has he kept an cleo
trio for 10 months, but he has kept an
accurate account OF his expenditures
and the data that he has collected dur
ing the time he has owned and driven
a car, furnishes some interesting IN
formation TO the prospective buyer
According 10 his comparative esti-
mate of the cost Of keeping a horse
and buggy. and the cost Of running an
electric, the horse and buggy had the
best of the argument by S35.1S year
for the six years which are arbitrarily
set as the desirable life pr each meth
cd of IocomOtion. To be free from
the annoyance Of keeping the lines
from under the contrary horses tail is
worth sS5.13 a year, the auto driver
says, so the heat might be called dead
one, and the prospective buyer may
take his choice.
Accurate Cost Of Auto.
During the entire 10 months since
the auto owner purchased his car. he
has spent exactly s273-76, according to
his own figures Once during this time
he collided with the business end Of
q brick wall, which cost him $50 TO
repair the damage done to the hood
With all fairness to the horse, he does
not include this in the cost Of upkeep,
as 1t is an accident that would not
occur again in a thousand and one
years, he says, and would not be in
cluded in the cost Of keeping an auto
any more than the cost Of repairing
the family phaeton after old Dobbin
has run away when he saw the widow
Jones walk home from church with
man.
Cost of Juice.
The estimate Of s14.4O per month for
running and keeping the car in repair
included the cost of the juice for the
batteries. He did his own charging
at home at the regular meter rate

This, think. is the only way to grip a

grip has much advantage over another
