ANOTHER CONSUMPTION
CUREy Exploded.

Closely following on the Friedman
hasco, in New York comes the an
nouncement to Chicago that one Peter
Duket has discovered a serum when
Will cure consumption" Although
one would hardly regard the present
as a favorable time for launching such
claims. the promoters evidently agree
With Barnum and think that there is
no limit to the publics credulity. The
"discoverer" Of this new remedy" has
secured the backing OF a prominent
eX-politician of Chicago and of one
OF the smaller medical schools of that
city as well Much of the notoriety
which has been given to this cure"
has been due 10 the fact that Il is said
10 be financed by William Lorimer.

A Dependable Livery Service.

The ~ want what / want when
want it" spirit prevailing in all
American cities has increased the
delivery problem of retailers and un-
doubtedly has been big factor in
the Harley Davidson motorcycle
truck, designed to carry loads of 600
pounds, is found the solution of the
problem.
When the housewife telephones to
the market for steak, to the grocer
for some lettuce, tomatoes and Gu
cumbers and to the milliner demand
ing that her new hat be delivered on
time, she insists on immediate ac-
tion and threatens dire things if she
is disappointed. Woe unto the
tradesman who fails to make deliv-
cries on time.
There is nothing for the live retail
erto do-and the wholesaler, too, for
that matter-but to make deliveries
as expected by their customers and
to add the cost Of deliveries to op-
Grating expenses. They must have a
delivery service that is dependable,
and speedy. All three points are
equally important.
In the Milwaukee-made motorcy-
Gle truck is found vehicle that con-
tains those three requisites and that,
therefore, seems destined to play an
important part in reducing the high
cost of living in addition to lessen
ing the troubles of the merchant.
Five generations ago the Harley
Davidson Motor Company began ex-
perimenting with three-wheeied We
hicles designed for delivery purpose.
The motorcycle truck evolved two
years ago by William s. Harley,
chief engineer of that company, has
withstood all kinds of hard service
and demonstrated that it can be op-
Grated by any person of average in
telligence and under all kinds of
road and weather conditions. Its
uses seem indefinite in their variety.
Uncle Sam-personified by Post
master David c. Owen, of Milwaukee
was among the first to appreciate
the utility of this type of motor We
hicle and to urge its adoption to the
needs Of the postal department in
parcel delivery and mail collection.
II was at his suggestion that the
Harley Davidson company built a
box on it's standard chassis, SO de-
signed that mail could be dumped in
to 1t quickly and unload just as

quickly. The motorcycle truck is
now in Washington, D. c., undergo
ing all kinds of tests by postal Off
cials.
Costing no more than the horse
and wagon equipment required by
the average tradesman, the motorcy-
Gle tuck begins to save money for
him from the beginning. In a TO-
hour day the MOTORCYCLE truck is cap
able of covering rs miles day with
from $50 to 200 stops and at an op-
Grating cost of not to exceed SO cents
per day.
One young man with this truck
can handle a delivery proposition
greater than could two men with two
horses and two wagons. Day in and
day out two horses could not possi-
bly, cover sixty miles a day. The
substitute horse would eat when he
was not working so his expensive hay
and oats must be added to the ag-
gregate cost.
In the final anylasis the motorcy-
Gle truck saves better than 500 a
month for any business that has a
delivery problem requiring two wag-
on outfits, because it requires but
one driver and costs bue $18 month
for operating expenses as compared
with close to $75 for feeding and tax
ing care of three horses plus the
wages of two drivers. And in ad-
dition, the motorcycle is considerably
more than twice as fast.

At the Austrian frontier a duty Of f5

ribbon.
"Then." said the customs officer, 'you

mourners had dropped the ribbon on
Italian soil their train had gone, and
they reached Roveredo three hours too
