AUTOIST MAKES
THRILLING DRIVE

AS every visitor will readily re-
call. the residence part Of Port
Townsend, Wash, Is on the heights
200 feet above the business part.
Pedestrians climb 200 feet by means
of steps; automobilists use a zig
gag, abrupt enough at that.
The other night John Mulpeter,
Chanting his new Studebaker,
started from uptown to downtown
but forgot about the zig-zag and
kept straight on, parallel to the
Angels Flight" The grade Is ter
raced, but slopes 60 degrees between
the terraces.
Mulpeter clearly recalls touching
something three times. The first
time the glass disappeared from his
windshield in million pieces. The
second time guy wire removed the
top and narrowly missed cutting of
Mulpeter's head. The third time
his trusty brakes got in their work
and he stopped on the final terrace.
"Whew!" remarked Mulpeter.
There he was. still so feet too
high. He couldn't turn round and
go up, so he carefully tobogganed
the rest of the way and drove of
in high feather.
Mulpeter promises to make a
round trip over his course, during
the Jerome County fair.

eral-manager of the Peoples Legal
Stamp Co. In his office in the Bowles

When Times reporter called he
demonstrated at once the optimism
with which he is imbued regarding
his business. The fact that more than
10000 Peoples legal stamp books are
in circulation is striking proof OF the
confidence Detroit merchants have in
the system.
Mr.. Mitchell has been in the
premium advertising business 10
years and knows 1t infinitely.
The success that Peoples l<ell
stamps have scored In the, past year
has been far.reaching and Mr.. Nit.
