AUTO TRADE never
BETTER Dealers SAY
REQ Sales Manager OPP
timiStic in His
Views

r. c. Rueschaw. sales manager of
the REQ Motor Car Company, is au-
thority for the statement that never
before in its history has the automo-
bile industry generally been IL so
healthy a condition as at this mo-
ment. November" says Mr.. Rues-
chaw, has always been looked upon
in the industry as clean up month.
The busy summer season over. the
lame ducks (meaning the financially
weak and the generally unft) would
succumb. Always in past years. even
the palmiest days. there were record
ed a number of failures. And per-
sons not familiar with the insides and
the reasons why. used 10 think tlc
whole automobile business was on
the way to the bow-wows
"Of, course, such a condition Affect
ed even the most prosperous TO an
extent The mere fact that hun
dreds, and sometimes thousands OF
cars were thrown on the market al
sacrifice prices, seriously upset lus-
mess in former years. For / am sorry
to record that not all buyers appreci-
ated the difference between a car with
factory and growing concern
back of IL. and one that had neither.
Nor did they stop to consider, appar-
emily. that that very cause of the
failure was. in most cases. a product
that could not stand up against com
petition. This season we have eNper-
fenced almost none of that The trade
is singularly free from even a sus-
picion OF weakness anywhere.
"Of course. the very process Of
elimination from which all suffered N
former years is now producing
this favorable condition. just to
show the difference in former years
the trade dropped OF alcng in August
and it continued light from that time
on until January. when the new sea-
son opened Abont the only trading
that went on in the late fall and early
winter was the trailic in what buy
ers fondly believed were bargains. but
which turned out to be only pass
ports to the trouble department.
This season August proved to be
bigger month than July, and Septem-
Der and October kept up the pace.
think that was true OF practically
every concern that made a reputable
car. In our own case the fall months
were considerably heavier than the
spring and summer-simply because,
by the addition of machinery and in
creased factory space, Ne we're able
to more nearly supply the demand"
Speaking of the outlook for the
coming season, Mr.. Rueschaw assert
ed his belief that there would be a
shortage of cars for 1915. He gave
as his reasons for that belief, the
fact that a few concerns, financially
sound but not supplied with surplus
cash, would perforce curtail their
output somewhat. 1T Is impossible
to borrow money at this time" said
the REQ man, and so only the very
fortunate will be able to make as
many cars as they would like.
AS for REQ. we are one of the
fortunate few, and so we are taking
full advantage of the situation that
exists. We are confident of the de-
mand, we have the money and have
just increased our factory facilities,
so we are going TO try for once TO
supply the dealers almost as many
Reos as they want--almost."

GET THE STAGE SECRET
OF HEALTHY HAIR

Though wigs are often used in
special parts played by actresses. it
Is a notable fact they all have beau
tiful, natural hair which is the re-
suit Of sensible care only. Their only
secret Is care Not strenuous, but
regular. In washing the hair IL Is
not advisable to use makeshifi, but
always use preparation made for
shampooing only You can enjoy the
best that is known for about three
cents a shampoo by getting a pack
age OF canthrox from your druggist:
dissolve ? teaspoonful in a cup Of
hot water and your shampoo is ready.
After its use the hair dries rapidly
with uniform color. Dandruff, ex-
cess oil and dirt are dissolved and
entirely disappear. Your hair will
be so fluffy that It will look much
heavier than It is. It's lustre and
softness viii also delight you, while
the stimulated scalp gains the health
which insures hair growth.-Adv.

RUBBER TRADE HAPPY.

The cruiser Emden, which was re-
Gently sunk after a career in which
she destroyed many merchant ves-
sells, was the cause of some worry
to the rubber trade OF the United
States, and there was general relief
at the news OF the Emdens destruc-
ton" says an official Of the Good
year Tire and Rubber Company. "This
relief was direct and had no relation
TO any ones sympathies in the pres
ent war. The Emden probably cost
the rubber industry In America ST.
100000. directly OF otherwise. and had
she been allowed TO continue to roam
the Indian Ocean indefinitely she
would have cast American industry
still more.
Before the engagement with the
sydney, which ended the Emden's
career. she sank nearly two dozen
merchant ships. One Of these car
ried 23G0 tons Of crude rubber from
the Far East. bound for London, anu
two others carried 500 tons of crudo
rubber each. The United States gets
most of It's crude rubber supply from
London. The effect OF the Emdens
activities on shipping was noticeable.
Insurance rates became almost pro-
hibitive. Crude rubber prices ad-
vanced steadily until they we're 12
cents a pound above normal. Since
the sinking of the commerce destroyer
rubber prices have been gradually re-
turning. the markets and insurance
have eased. and the theory is that
conditions will become even moro
favorable than they are now"

safety device attached to the bottom
of the pump, fire cannot be sucked

manufactures a safety non-explosive
emergency tank for automobiles. 1t

gasoline tank used in the automobile
can also be equipped so that 1t will
have this safety device. Louis Kessler

French Public Seems
to Regard General War
as a Certainty Today
BY associated Press

London, July 80. - A newspaper dis
patch from Rome says sharp resistance
is being offered to the Austrian advance
from the Northwest by small detach-
mentS of Servian troops left to impede
their progress. The news comes from
Nish, Servia, by way of Saloniki.
The Austrian-Hugarian invaders fol-
lowed the valley of the River Morava
aid first encountered a body of Servian
troops at Semendria on the Servian side
of the n u The Servians held their
ground until nightfall and then retir-
ed. Both Austrians and Servians sus-
tanned heavy losses, several hundred
soldiers being killed in the engagement.
On the western side of Servia an
Austrian column came into contact
with a Servian force at Losnitza. which
put up a stubborn defense and held the
fort there until dark, inflicting heavy
losses on the Austrians.
The Austrian column in Bosnia re-
manned stationary to-day. awaiting the
movement of the M~ontenegrian troops.
The ancient fortress of Belgrade was
reduced by the Austrian artillery,
which, however, caused only slight
damage to other parts of the Servian
capital. The British Legation was
struck by an Austrian shell. Servian
sharpshooters greatly harrassed the
Austrian artillery men during the bonn
bardment.

the Austro-Hungarian consulate in
this city. This is taken as an indica-
ton that a partial mobilization of Aus
TRAN forces has been ordered. The
proclamation contains the amnesty
proposal announced on Tuesday.
At the consulate to-day 1t was said
that returns were expected to be re-
ceived this week from all Austrian
subjects who have received special or
individual calls to arms. These re-
servists, 1t was said. would be the
first to be sent over. then will come
the others who have answered the
general mobilization call.
No official word has as yet been re-
ceived at the Servian consulate here
concerning mobilization calls. This
was accounted for by the fact tina all
cable messages from Servia must come
through Italy and Austria, and there
fore may have been stopped in transit.
Thus far the war clouds o~verhang-
ing all Europe ave not affected the
bookings for European ports. nor is ii
believed that nan bookings have been
cancelled on account of it. About 400
Austrians and Servians sailed yester-
day on the La Savoie, among them
being Count Karolyi, the leader of the
Hungarian Independent party.

Paris. July 80. - Every military
preparation short of mobilization has
now been made in France. The prin-
cipal railroad stations and all the sig
nal boxes and switches are to-day
guarded by troops.
Rumors of the widest nature were
in circulation to-day to the effect that
President Poincaire, after an all-night
council of war, has decided to call up
$780, 600 men of the French army re-
serves. A strongly worded official de-
NAL of this was issued. together with
assurances that definite measures
would be taken against those spread
ing such reports. The government is
working in close cooperation with the
principal newspapers to reassure the
public, while at the same time a veil
is being kept Eel military operations,
as during the war in 1876 the Germans
arc said to have obtained a great adj
vantage from the information printed
in the French press.

Paris, July 3J.-The uproar that
was expected to follow the acquittal
of Nine. Henriette Caillaux, charged
with the murder of CASTOR Calmette,
editor of h Figaro, last March, has
not materialized. 1t has been swat
lowed up in the great war fervor that
has swept across the land.
Nine. Caillaux since her acquittal
has retired completely from public
view. Yesterday when she did appear
briefly there were mingled cries of
~"murderess" and cheers for her. The
Partisan populace is much divided in
opinion as to the verdict, but all
thought of the trial is obscured by the
talk of war that is now occupying the
popular mind.
Nine. Caillaux, in strong contrast
with her weakened physical condition
during the trial, is said to be in eX-
cellent spirits and to show few traces
of her recent illness.
