THOUSANDS have been waiting
for the day when they could afford
a motor car.
That day is here for million more
people--people who have been buying
buggies and driving horses both for
business and pleasure.
1t is here for thousands of other people
who do not use horses, who depend on
public conveyances, submit TO unnec- ,
essary discomforts and delays, and suffer
consequent loss of time and business.
Every horse owner can buy and main
tain Liberty Brush automobile, cost
ing $3.50, for less money than it costs TO
keep horse.
The others-if they are compelled by
business to cover large areas, earning
more money the quicker they cover
their territory-will find the Liberty
Brush cheaper than any public con-
veyance, cheaper even than the trolley.
They can widen their territory, and IN
crease their earning powers.
The pleasures of motoring are too
well known to need more than mention.
The Liberty-Brush opens this field OF
recreation and healthful pleasure.
This is not extravagant talk. It's fact.
Consider it carefully in your own case.
The Liberty-Brush is not a low-priced
imitation of big motor cart is a
real automobile machine designed
and built according to accepted best
standards. The forerunner of the
Liberty Brush mechanically is the sue
cessful Brush runabout, thousands of
which are giving satisfactory service.

Now consider this:

E2oyY consider this:
Iae a,~ rc speed was 1879 miles per
hour. The t.erage mileage on one
gallon Of gasoline was $50 miles. The
average consumption of oil was 500
miles per gallon.
AS to reliability: Only six adjustments
were mage. aree to carburetors and
three to spe K plugs.
AT this cost of operation and this
initial cost, who can say II cannot
afford an automobile" Mercantile
concerns can see in this an economic
business proposition for statesmen, So
hcitors, inspectors, or for quick, light
delivery.
Five days after the announcement
of the Liberty-Brush we had received
2,585 inquiries by mail and telegraph
from dealers, firms, and individuals
looking towards its purchase. Hun
dreds Of inquiries continue to come
every day.
We will have Liberty-Brush dealer
in every county, and some territory
remains open. Liberty-Brush users will
find representatives everywhere who are
prepared to care for these car7.
Orders for cars will be filiet. strictly
in the rotation in which they are

Think Of running once and "a half
around the globe in your own car
think of the many months, years, during
which you Will Get capable service from
your Liberty-Brush. You can learn to
operate it in fifteen minutes.
AS to cost in many official tests and
in the hands Of owners, the Brush has
proved most economical. We know
that many Brush cars have run more
than Is, 700 miles at cost Of Us cents
a mile, or six-tenths of a cent per mile
per passenger, including all mainte-
nance charges.
On the day when the Liberty-Brush
arrived, the Fourth of July, 100 Brush
runabouts in 100 different cities ran 100
miles, and their performances proved
the claims made for the Liberty-Brush.
The fastest car averaged 28.17 miles
per hour and the slowest, Ill.
The highest economy average was
4S.4 miles per gallon, and the low
est average was 1888.
The lowest oil consumption was

N. P. REBORN
State Revenue Agent Is Here,
and Gives You a Chance to
Settle Before Suit.

NJ. p. Reborn. Revenue Agent
for the State at large, of Lexing
ton, was here Thursday, Friday
and Saturday of last week, ad-
justing back tax cases on omitted
property.
Mr.. Reborn is not only the most
competent, but the fairest Reve-
nue. Agent We have ever seen here.
He does not pursue the old drag
net" method of suing indiscrimi-
nately anybody and everybody,
without justification for so doing,
as has frequently been the case.
On the contrary, he examines the
County Court records and when
ever he finds a prima facia case,
he notifies the person and gives
him an opportunity to explain.
If it is shown that the debt or
obligation has been paid and the
lien not released by oversight, OF
that for any other good reason nc
taxes should be paid thereon, nc
suit is brought. If, on the other
hand, he can show the taxpayer
that no taxes have been paid or
the item in question, though prop.
erly the subject of taxation, an
opportunity is given to make ar
equitable settlement without the
heavy costs incident to suit.
In this way, Mr.. Reborn collect.
ed in three days over seven hun.
dred dollars due the County anc
State. He says he has a large
number of other cases nadjustec
and we are informed he will bt
here several days each week unit
they are all disposed of. Thi.
week he will be here Thursday
and Friday. While ia the city
in order to be near the county
records, he occupies the county
court room.

A Big Sale.

On Saturday the enterprisine
firm OF Prewitt & Howell sold and
delivered a carload of Corn King
manure spreaders. About IL
o'clock they were all driven up
Maysville street to the public
square where a photograph was
taken. This was the first time a
carload of manure spreaders had
ever been sold at one time in ken-
lucky, and it certainly was sight
well worth seeing to see them all
lined up. This sale was quite a
boost for Prewitt & Howell and
not only does it show what a pro-
gressive firm they are. but it also
shows that our farmers are keep
ing in line with the latest i'm
proved machinery. Following are
the names of the purchasers:

And Still They Shoot.

Saturday afternoon near the
Owingsville pike crossing in Smith
vile, Dave Blv, colored, shot and
wounded his brother Clarence
Bly,, with a shotgun loaded with
bird shot. They were very close
together, approximately twenty
feet. The shots took effect in the
forehead, penetrated to the skull
and ranged upward, without doing
any serious injury. The wound
ed man is not thought to be in
danger, and the brother is in Jail
awaiting trial. The trouble is the
outcome of a family difference,
and is the first case of attempted
fratricide that has occurred in this
county for long time.

OUR STREETS.
Street Paving Committee Visits
Ashland and Huntington and
Are Royalty Entertained.

Messrs. G. G. Chenault, w. A.
Samuels and G.. H. Strother, men,
bers of the Street Paving Com
mission visited Ashland, KY, and
Huntington, w. Va, last week &,
accompanied by Jno. w. William.
Ashland is considered one of the
best paved cities of it's size in the
United States, and much valuable
information was obtained by these
gentlemen.
They were informed at Ashland
that the cost of brick streets there
ranged from 81, 3S a square sur
face yard to $1.94. The streets
constructed about year ago, cost
the last named price.
All streets in Ashland are on
concrete base of six inches, with
sixteen inch base in street car
tracks, and many heavy excava-
tions were necessary. The oldest
street paved in Ashland has been
used about six years and not dol
lar has been spent on same for re-
pairs.
The streets at Huntington cost
from SIPS square yard to S1.65.
Most of them have no concrete
base, which is the method recon-
mended by all experienced engi-
neers today. The curbing and
cutters at Ashland cost forty-nine
cents a lineal foot. The main
streets of Ashland are GA feet
in width, while the streets of Mt.
Sterling average from Sc to 40 TT.
The difference in freight rates will
increase the cost here to some ex-
tent, but it is believed brick streets
can be put in here complete for
not to exceed $1.90 a square sur
face yard.
The people of both of these
cities are enthusiastic in their
praise of brick streets, saying that
as soon as they were put down in
the business district and the adj
vantages were seen, the citizens
desired them in the residential
portion.
The entire Commission is work
ing hard on this proposition and
will be ready to report to the City
Council soon. 1t now looks like
brick streets are a certainty here,
and is is predicted that actual work
of construction will be commenced
by June 1st.
The citizens of both Ashland
and Huntington showed these
gentlemen every courtesy. AT
Huntington they were royalty en-
tertained by the local lodge OF
Elks.

Talk Twenty-Five

dts not the man who knows most about
LIE Insurance who ought to be most
deeply interested in it. No, it should be
the man who needs ii most who ought to
feel the deepest concern about it. This is
the way Hoffman looks at it. And talk
with Hoffman OH the subject will open
your eyes. Maybe you've always thought
that the subject was dull, made up of be-
wildering statistics, argued only from the
selfish standpoints of the seller of Insur-
ance.
Hoffman will show you differently.
He'll expound Life Insurance to you in
such way that you'll become charmed
by its fascination. Did you ever think
that serious subject can be made really
fascinating Likely not. And the reason
is very apparent. Most Life Insurance
hasn't groundwork of truth and fact,
but is made up of fancy and fiction. AS
it is expounded there is SO little pith and
so much froth, so much confusion and so
little plain, straightforward, substantial
satisfaction, that Hoffman's talk about it
is revelation!
Then again. you must remember that
he is talking about something (Which he
has to sell, of course) which you want.
You want it more than any insurance
there is to be had. Whyi
