YOU DO NOT.

young man for about nine months.

about him. but when don't sec him
forget all about him Do you

Love. my dear, feeds on absence. If
you forget this man the moment he is

Dear Miss FAIRFAX:

and he acts quite gentle. He goes
to Harvard college. How can l win
his love- HEARTBROKEN.
You have never met him. yet you
sign yourself "Heartbroken." My dear,
YOU are too emotional. Instead Of
trying to win any mans love, put more
time and effort in improving yourself.
Acquire self-control, and don't imagine
YOU are heart broken when you are
really not in love.

MANY DEMANDS FOR
MED|UM-PR|CED CAR
High Price Of Living Given
as Cause by Official Of
ys-0verIand.

THE high cost of living has opened
the eyes of hundreds of automobile
buyers to the intrinsic value of the
medium-priced car" says George w.
Bennett, vice president Of the WHY'S
Overland Company
"A good illustration of this condition
can be obtain through the fact that. al
though We have increased our produc-
ton this year fully 20 per cent over the
output of the same period of last season.
and we are at the present time entirely
up to our shipping schedule, our. dealers
are over-sold in every part of the coun-
try. This demand indicates an era
of unprecedented prosperity ahead, as II
is from all classes of people.
Not a few of the Overland pur-
chasers at the present time are buying
their first car. They have been sunde-
cided as to their utility for years, and
have discovered that automobiles are a
necessity at last Others who have
their automobile education driving a
small car are turning to the medium
priced machine as being the most eco
nomical in the end.
Owners of high-power machines also
are adding some particular model of
the Overland TO their stables on ac-
count of their simplicity. ease Of opera
ton, and low cost Of upkeep.'

GREAT FIELD TO
START IN DERBY
Hawthorn, Helios, and Other
High Class Thoroughbreds
in Classic Event.

LOUISVILLE. KY, March 14.-In the
1913 Kentucky Derby are some Of the
greatest horses the American turf has
known in years. While at this time
hawthorn and Helios are regarded by a
majority of turf students as the fore
most candidates. there are other eligi-
bles of unquestioned class.
When the racing season ended last fall
there was a variance of opinion con-
cerning the champion in the two-year-
old division. Helios had virtually as
many supporters as Hawthorn. With
both horses certain to start In the
derby, barring. or course, an accident.
interest in the event is keen. and, would
be SO with only those cracks to face
the barrier. In the meantime the sup
.porters of other contenders will de-
velop, and long before the race Is de
cided 1t will be attracting attention all
over the Union. This Is characteristic
incident Of the Kentucky Derby, and
dating from 1878. since which year 1t has
grown in intensity.
In the opinion of Col. Matt ]. Winn.
general manager Of the New Louisville
Jockey Club. the derby this spring viii
in many respects be a duplicate OF the
Spokane and Proctor Knott Derby.
though the equal favorites today-Haw-
thorn and Helios-are both owned by
Kentuckians, c. F. Buschemeyer own
ing Hawthorn and johnson n. Camden

.U,S, MOTOR TRUCKS
ARE BEST IN WORLD
London Uses Huge. Steam A.
fairs With Smokestacks
Which BeIch Smoke Clouds.

"Just as the United States has proved
itself a world beater in the production
of automobiles of all classes, so has it
demonstrated its. alertness ard pro-
gressiveness in the use of the motor
truck" said John N. WHY'S, head Of
the Garford Company.
There are more trucks in use in our
own country today than in all the other
countries of the world combined, judg-
ing from the bright outlook for this
branch of the industry. our record will
never be in danger from our COM
petitors abroad The most striking ex-
ample of American progress in this line
is given in 4 comparison of the motor
truck situation here and in Europe.
Despite the fact that their roads,
streets and pavements are vastly su-
perior to our own, Europeans have been
slow in adopting the logical successor
of the horse. Ones first impression on
visiting London, Paris. Berlin, ol any of
the important cities of the old world, is
the scarcity of motor trucks.
In London, which has more motor
propelled vehicles for the transportation
of merchandise than any other one city
abroad. the trucks are crude and un-
satisfactory affairs. A majority of them
utilize steam for power, and with big
smokestacks, located forward on the
cHassiS, anu DelcnlnS CLOUDS OF steam
and smoke. they present a picture to
amuse the American who is accustomed
to big, powerful vehicles. hauling i'm
mense loads and operating through the
congestion OF traffic of our large cities
as easily and quietly as a pleasure
car
1T is only in the utilization of the
motor. truck as a bus that Europe leads
the United States, and with the re-
markable development OF this branch of
the business in our country within the
very recent past. it is beginning to look
as though we would take the laurels
away from them on this score, too"

TIRED Of FOOL|NG
AMERICAN PUBLIC
Hughie Jennings Conscience
Hurts Him for Accepting
Money for Acting.

GULFPORT, Miss, March 14.-Man-
ager Jennings, of the Tigers. Is not
likely to 20 on the stage next season.
He is constantly joking about his stunts
histrionic, but in his serious moments
he confides that he is really tired OF
them.
Hughes conscience seems to bother
him. He fears that he has been i'm
posing upon the good nature Of the
American public In playing before them
for real American dollars.
II think. you know" said Hughie
today. that the people expect more
from me than they got, so / feel that
am disappointing them. 1t seems that
they should know that / don't prtend
to be an actor, but / fear some Of
them do not.
You see a ball player must depend
upon his popularity to furnish that
which ability on the stage gives a
real actor OF course. l consider 1t
very flattering that 1 should be SO
cordially received in my first attempt
last winter when the team 1 had had
finished in sixth place in the Ameri-
can League. It's pretty hard to be a
popular idol when your team isn't up
there one-two.
Except for the nervous strain. / en-
jcyed the work. The regular diet and
hours required of player on the stage
is much better for him than the irregu-
lar life that is likely to result II he
doesn't have something like that work
to keep him eating and sleeping and ex-
ercising regularly.
The funniest thing that happened
during the tour was the mistake of the
property man in sending out my part
ner's fur coat instead Of grass mat
when 1 was supposed to pluck the
blades from the ground. Plucking
blades of grass out of the hide Of an
animal was hardly dignihcd.''
