MORE MOTORS IN FRANCE
Ten Years, According to
Reports.

Figures recestly published in France
show development of automobillng in that
country in the ten years. From 1901 TO
1910 the number OF cars increased from
6,Ss6 TO 5S.66s. The average horse power
has also increased materially, although,
perhaps. not to the extsnt expected In
1901 the average was nye-horse power;
last year II had advanced to thirteen.
Il is pointed out that, the life of the
pedestrian in Paris is becoming difficult,
not only because Of more cars in use, but
because OF the speed.
The fiRtires follow.

trucks, along similar lines with their
three and four-ton trucks, but larger
and stronger throughout to meet
the additional requirements Of the

Pape's Diapepsin Settles Upset
Stomacfls and Ends Indiges-
ton in Five Minutes.

The question as to how long you are
going to continue a sufferer from Indi-
gestion, Dyspepsia or out-of-order
Stomach is merely a matter Of how
soon you begin taking some Diapep-
sin.
If your Stomach is lacking in d.
gestive power. why not help the stom>
ach' to do its work, not with drastic
drugs, but a reinforcement of diges-
tive agents, such as are naturally at
work in the stomach.
People with weak Stomachs should
take a little Diapepsin occasionally,
and there will be no more Indigestion.
no feeling like a lump of lead in the
stomach, no heartburn. Sou rislngs,
Gas on Stomach or Belching of undi-
Sick Stomach. and, besides, what you
eat will not ferment and poison your
breath with nauseous odors. All these
symptoms resulting from q sour, out
of-order stomach and dyspepsia are
generally relieved in five minutes
after taking a little Diapepsin.
Go to your druggist and get a so
cent case of Pape's Diapepsin now.
and you will always go to the table
with a hearty appetite, and what you
eat will taste good, because vol
stomach and intestines will be clean
and fresh, and you will know there
are not going to be n more bad
nights and miserable days for you.
They freshen you and make you feel
like life is worth living.

UNCLE JOE CANNON

WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.-"uncle
Joe Cannon, who, as speaker used to
drive tho House of Representatives,
played his first game of golf as the
guest of Representative john w.
Weeks, an enthusiastic golfer, at New
ton, Mass.
Mr.. Weeks initiated him in the
mysteries of the ancient and honorable
game on the Brae Burn Country Club
links there.
The ball behaved In the most erratic
manner for Uncle Joe. 1t either got
in a bunker or got lost and was harder
20 find than a quorum in the House
when the Washingtons are playing at
home. The air was full of %splinters of
drivers and brassies and of a certain
s%ulphurous odor which seemed to alarm
the caddies, for they sought shelter
and safety under the clubhouse porch,
ITS a great game, a great game, -
said Uncle Joe, as. painting and thirsty,
he sat down on the clubhouse steps
after completing the course. but 1
think, Weeks, some of the rules need
revision. For example, each player
should have two highballs instead Of
one after a game. Waiter

Hazy.

Whether Charles Mics was robbed of
his gold watch and thrown into the
canal. or whether the liquid was more
inside than out, or whether he suf-
fered from a temporary inundation

ton OF much subtlety. The police of
the Fourth precinct admit that they
are puzzled.
A hurry call came in for the wagon
at s o'clock last night. officers Nun
and Kaas found Mes, who said he
lived at $50 South Eighteenth street, at
the corner of Warren and Golden
streets.
He was dripping wet, shaking mois-
ture from his clothes like q half
drowned terrier.
"I~-ugh-I've been robbed" he splut-
tered. "Then they threw me into the
canal"
He smote franticaly at invisible foes
in the fury of his rage.
Gradually the officers learned that
he had peer in the saloon on the cor
ner drinking with three men. They
had all left together. Then his three
companions had fallen upon him and
stripped him of those worldly goods
he had upon his person. a gold watch
and SIPS in cash.
Officer Kaas, who was not in uni
form, slipped away to see if the hold
up men were lurking in the neighbor-
hood.
When he returned Mes sprang for
