placed at the disposal Of the Rotarians
for the entire trip. being sent from Chi
cago to Toledo so that the travellers may
enjoy their dancing from the start. The
observation room, twenty-five feet long
and the full width of the car. will be
available for dancing, for the seats will
be removed and a special dancing floor
laid. Tea and light Refreshments will be
served In the lounge adjoining the dane

NEW OLDSMOBILE FOUR

J. v. Hall. sales manager At Olds Motor

remarkable contracts on the new Model

Mr.. Hall says. I'VE had not planned to
open our newspaper campaign OF the
new Model z until the latter part Of July
since We are only able to produce 3ol
cars as the FIRST allotment which we are
distributing one to a dealer. until We be-
gin manufacturing in quantities August /
News of the new model has spread
over the entire country by some mysteri-
Gus means, and we have dealers wiring
and writing daily for cars In greater
Quantities than they have ever ordered
from Olds Motor Works in the past.
"One new dealer we have just closed 1.

She is the FIRST dealer of the feminine

"Our Canadian dealers are as eager for
the new models as are the dealers In the
United States-just this week we shipped

THE remarkable part Of these orders
for the Model q Is the fact that not rs
per cent Of the dealers ever saw the car
before ordering-when they learned that
1t was an exact reproduction Of the big
oldsmobile Six. except that It would
weigh under 1850 pounds and sell for
$3.50, the story was complete.

French Remedy Aids
Stomach Sufferers

France has been called the nation
without stomach troubles. The French
have for generations used simple mix
ture of vegetable oils that relieve all
stomach and intestinal ailments and keep
the bowels free from foul, poisonous
matter. The stomach is left to perform
its functions normally.
Mr.. Geo. H. Mayr, a leading druggist
of Chicago, cured himself with this rem
edy in a short time. The demand is
so great that he imports these oils from
France and compounds them under the
name of Mayr's Wonderful Stomach
Remedy People everywhere write and
testify to the marvellous relief they have
received using this remedy-one dose
will rid the body of poisonous accretions
that have accumulated for years and
convince the most chronic sufferer from
stomach, liver or intestinal troubles.

her last this morning at 1870 o'clock.
From the first week grave apprehen-
sions were entertained for her recov-

thing that loving relatives and
friends and skilled attention could
do for her was done. but death this
morning brought relief from her suf-
fering.
Funeral services were conducted

permitted to live and her life will
