From the beginning we
have offered the Light Six"
as a quality, not a price car.
Its rapid sale has not been
due to extreme light weight,
abnormal design or sensa-
tionally low price. But
rather to real quality at an
unusually low price for a car
of such size, beauty, comfort
and endurance.
When the 1915 "Light
Six" was first announced, it
was priced at $500 for the
Five-passenger Touring Car.
With the completion of the
first factory order, we have
made a number of detail i'm
provements, giving even
more style and more com
plete equipment.
Yet the new price of the
"Light Six" fve-passenger
Touring Car is only $3.50.

Farmers Day at Calmar.

Our annual Fall Festival, termed
Farmers Day was lovely, nice and
warm, and an ideal day for fine
time. the roads were good and long
before noon the streets were being
lined with automobiles and teams
coming in from all directions, some
from a considerable distance. About
$40 the Calmar Concert Band
started to liven things up and all
day and evening sweet strains OF
music were heard from this splen-
did musical organization, and while
the writer enjoyed the pleasure OF
listening to them he was real nome
sick to be with the band as OF yore,
as he had on all previous occasions
of this kind been one OF the band
Many words of appreciation ana
communication were heard from
strangers, for the band.
The games, races and sports es-
pecially amused the young tolks
and the spirit of the older ones was
also aroused.
Two experts from Ames Agrlcnl-
tural College gave instructive lee
lures on corn raising and on hog
cholera.
The famous Blackstone Quartette
(colored) OF Chicago and the come
DIV acrobats occupied large part In
the entertainment of the people.
The Blackstone Quartette especially
was very much appreciated.
The ball game was between two
local mines, one from Washington
township and the other from Spring
field and they put up pretty good
game the latter carrying off the
honors of victory
Even in the evening the crowd
had not apparently thinned out any
and the dance hall was literary
packed.
We believe everybody had a good
time and will look forward with
Measure and anticipation to the
next annual jubilee. Cour-

MAD cow CAUSES SCARE.
Terrifies Farmers i'm Vicinity o
TabOr-Men and Horses
are Attacked.

Tabor, Ia, Oct. 12.-Mad dogs
are a terror to community but the
scare a rabid dog can pile up in
community is nothing compared
to what happened in the country
north of here a few miles when
cow suddenly went mad and tore
through the country, terrifying peo-
pie until killed. The COW was with
others in a pasture on the Warren
Munsinger farm, and being seized
with frenzy tore through heavy barb
wire fences cutting her flesh into
shreds and giving her most bloody
and weird appearance as she tore
along the roads attacking wagons
and teams and automobiles and
frightening people.
Harry Hall, who started after the
cow on a horse, was nearly killed.
The COW attacked horse and rider
and nearly got them down and so
terrified the horse that Mr.. Hall
could scarcely control his mount,
much less check the mad COW. A
few miles further on the COW sailed
into the dooryard of Ray Hurlbutts
farm and Ray took refuge in the
chicken coop. Rex Aistrope was
driving along the road leading a
second team behind his rig. Down
the road the mad COW rolled at top
speed and pumped into the led
team fullforce, causing a miXup that
threatened dire consequences for a
few minutes. Ed Russell finally
cornered the COW in a field and shot
her with a rifle.
Farmers and veterinarians are
discussing the probable cause of the
cows actions and believe it was the
result of a mouth disease which
caused much sickness among the
cattle here last year and at which
time several animals went mad.

CONSUMPTION TAKES
$50 PEOPLE DAILY

Over $50 people succumb to con-
sumption every day in the United States.
Science proves that the germs only
thrive when the system is weakened from
colds or sickness, overwork, combining
sluties or when general weakness exists.
] The best physicians point out that
Turing changing seasons the blood should
be made rich and pure and active by tax
ing SCOTS Emulsion after meals. The cod
liver oil in SCOTS Emulsion warns tke
body by enriching the blood; it peculiarly
strengthens the lungs and throat, while it
upbuilds the resistive forces of the body
to avoid colds and prevent consumption.
If you work indoors, tire easily, feel
1anguid or nervous, Scott's Emulsion is the
most strengthening food medicine known.
It is totally free from alcohol or any
Supplying drug. Avoid substitutes.

Don't Hang Your Portrait in Your
Own Living Room.

In the October Woman's Home
Companion George Alfred Williams
writes a most interesting and prac
tically helpful article entitled The
Pictures On Your Walls" in which
he tells how to choose and hang
them effectively. Following is an eX.
tract:
THE first important step is the
selection of proper pictures for diff
ferent rooms. Several general sus
gestions apply to the phase of hang
ing pictures.
The formal parlor has gradually
disappeared from the average Amer.
lean home, leaving in its place the
more companionable living-room
where the family congregate and re
ceive friends. Pictures chosen SoI
it should, therefore, be of general in
terest. Family portraits and photo
graphs OF friends are decidedly on,
of place. The casual caller should
not be required to sit and gaze al
intimate pictures; personal pictures
have a more fitting place in the pri-
vacy Of bedrooms. reproductions
of good paintings, or the origina,
paintings themselves, are always in
good taste for the living-room. Sc
ledtions for the dining room will
readily suggest themselves; pictures
of good cheer, of cornwall gather
ings, Of animals and hunting scenes
are suitable

THE OUTLANDISH CLOTHES.
Present Dress Defended When Com
pared to the Past.
(BY Observer. {"

Ia you ever Try Standing In one
spot on any of our uptown streets
for half an hour and listen, unob-
served, to the conversations that
are sure to reach your ear? | have
and really it's worth while.
Only this week l heard number
of good old souls" ripping a young
er woman up the back because of
her "outlandish' clothes This in
cident, and one of those Backward,
Turn Backward" poems which l
read just short time ago, induce
me to write this letter.
1t seems the guy that wrote that
poem was yearning for the good old
times, especially the goodtold-time
girls, the twenty-five years ago kind
that dressed so sensibly, etc. You
know that talk. The. way he had it
doped out they all looked liked gen.
tie, modest angels. And the way
he scolded the terrible up-to-second
fashions was something awful.
But say, l happen to know the
guy that got that off, because an
aunt of mine was in his high-school
class, and she has a photograph Of
the bunch. One Of the girls in the
outfit shows up with a hustle that
projects twelve inches to the rear;
one has a set of false bangs, one has
a switch made up in dizzy noun
tains on the top of her head, and
one has her hair cut short and fritz
zled out in a cloud-something like
they wear in the Fiji islands. All
of them have on hoop skirts that
would require considerable skill to
sit down in.
1t was this same crop of angels
that bloomed out in the tight waist
ed effects only five years later. Their
next stunt was boomers, or some
times half skirts" for bicycle
wear; same girls, remember. And
it was stylish of course, to have
two or three perfectly sound front
teeth extracted and gold ones put in
in their places. Twenty-Five years
ago, my aunt says, was right in the
midst of the whalebone era. Re-
member those whalebones?
oh the dear, sweet, simple. ma
tural' girl of twenty five years ago.
They were sure innocent and unso-
phisticated some.
Whenever an old geezer has to
look a millinery bill in the eye he
remembers the danes of yesterday,
and he gets the idea that they were
different then. He forgets that the
fighty fashions were started about
six thousand years ago by Mrs.
Adam and that there has been some
thing new and fierce, as we'll as ex-
pensive, every season since.
My idea is that the fashions are
worth the money. they always give
you something TO talk about. Of
course, you have to be mighty care
full sometimes what you say and
where you say it, but matters in
that respect are improving.
Another compensation is that
the fashions go in circles, so if you
live long enough you know what
TO look for. In another twenty
years | expect to see all the modern
peel-tight and sunlight affairs all
over again, and that's saying and
seeing a great deal. The turn back
ward" poems don't interest me a
little bit. / have troubles enough
right now, without diving into his
tory for them.

day al both stations transferring thirty
six young policemen from each. The
men are part of the 10 rockies brought

The belief that the fixed post. which
was introduced by Commissioner Waldo,

are thirty-six such posts in each of the
two precincts concerned. No one in au-

their promise not TO go to work as
scmbled yesterday in the Manhattan

The hoboes lolled about. smoking and
