uncle SAM uses
five OVERLANDS IN
CLEVELAND Service

With five new Overland delivery
cars at his disposal, the postmaster of
Cleveland, Ohio, has announced his
intention of putting into effect a plan
which will be a decided innovation
for Uncle Sans postal department.
The purpose is to make the parcel
post an agency for greater service. All
farmers living In the vicinity Of Cleve-
land, who have butter, eggs and gem
eral produce for sale, have been in
vited to forward their names and adj
dresses to the postoffice. These
names will be printed free by the gov
eminent. and the list will be displayed
in the Federal building and sub-sta-
tions throughout the city and in addi-
ton will be distributed direct to Cleve-
landers by mail carriers.
The prospective consumers will
communicate with the producers re-
garding prices, orders will be mailed,
and goods received within a day or
two. Uncle Sam will make the col
lections when his Overlands make the
deliveries.
The cars will not only deliver par
cells but also will be used to bring out
going parcels to the postoffice from
stations in different sections of the
city.
A novel departure from the usual
method of keeping up a delivery sys-
TEN is that each of the drivers will be
required to pay for all repair work on
his car and to provide oil, gasoline
tires. and bear any other expense nee
essary to keep the vehicle in con-
tinuous service. For this purpose he
will be given a fixed allowance an
nually.
With view to trying out this plan
cars of numerous different makes
were closely examined in order to Sc
I lect the one which would be the most
dependable and economical. It was
only after most convincing demon.
STATIONS that the Overland was
! chosen.

KISSELKAR ON
200 Mile TRIP
THROUGH mexico

Motoring through Mexico is not
particularly Joyous diversion, judg-
ing from the testimony Of Antonio
Herzer, a mine owner. of FL Paso,
Texas. Mr.. Herzer writes from Chi
huahua City, where he arrived after a
supreme test of the stability of his
KisselKar and his own capacity for
roughing it. He says in part
I'VE covered a very hard trip of
$50 miles from FL Paso to chihuahua
City without car trouble of any kind.
After resting here for two days we
proceeded to Temosachic, a 175-mile
drive through the Sierras, during
which we assembled to 10000 feet
above sea level. Part of the way there
was no road whatever, and we had
to go slowly, but we made it without
mechanical mishap.
From Temosachic we made a won
derful mountain drive of As miles to
Tesonachic Ranch, climbing at one
point a long % per cent. grade No
body would believe that an automobile
could get over this road. Our driver
who has been all over the world in an
automobile. says this was by far the
hardest trip he ever attempted, and
that few cars could make it. Our par
ty included four persons, and we car.
ried several hundred pounds of bagge
My KisselKar has been driven in all
more than $4,000 miles"

Shows
UNUSUAL power
IN Severe TEST

il. Christner. a resident ( Tioga,
ILL.,, had heard his neighbors tell time
and again Of the power OF their auto
mobiles. Mr.. Christner, who owns a
Cartercar, said nothing while all this
talk was going on but on October 3
when the men Of the countryside Of
South Hancock county had gathered
for a threshing "bee" he resolved TO
show them a few things.
Just before the big Garr-Scott trac-
tor started up after the noon hour Mr.
Christner drove his Cartercar around
in front of IT, He pulled a log chain
out Of the tonneau, fastened one end
Of Il to the front axle Of the tractor,
the other 20 the rear axle of his auto
mobile then climbed behind the wheel
shouting 10 the engineer to put the
big tractor in gear. Mr.. Christner
started his car. 70 moved forward
slightly, the percepubly and pulled the
great engine ten feet To prove that
IL was not an accident he repeated
the performance five or six times.
The tractor as equipped, weighed
about 10000 pounds besides the water
Il carried.
Just so his word could not be
doubted whenever he chose to tell
about the power of his car, Mr.. Christ
ner had the picture taken and secured
the sworn afiidavits Of seventeen spec
tators.
