Chauffeur Is Good Man to

Bv F. w. MULLER.

Both to the man in the street and he
whose income permits the luxury of
the taxi. the drivers who pilot such ve-
hicies through the nazcs OF city traf-
fic. appear to be about the most reck-
less type of individuals TO whom the
steering whee! of an automobile Is in
trusted. With their small motors and
low driving gear ratio. these little ma
chimes arc not capable of making much
moro than twenty-five miles an hour,
and many Of them are governed so that
they cannot exceed that speed. But
twenty-five miles an hour is a pretty
rapid pace for crowded city streets.
That doesn't feaze the Washington taxi

there and back. the sooner will the

Summer Clothing For Men.

Men are always supposed to be free
from the burdensbme trammels OF
style Yet those who work in stores
and offices usually wear through the
hot weather clothing that adds to the
discOmforts of the season. The Great
ure that wears tight starched collars
and heavy wool coats on a warm day
can never say anything to women a
bout subservency to absurd fashions.
Farmers, mechanics, transfers and
other outdoor workers do not submit
to these tyrannical restrictions. They
strip to their tasks, and perhaps sui
fer less at their vigorous effort than
the swathed and swaddled man in the
swivel chair.
Old fashioned people always used
to- have light linen or alpaca coats. in
which they used to pass the warm
weather in comfort. Many men of sim
pie habits wear them still. But the fact
that they tend to get shapeless con
dennis them with some OF our tailor

fine thing for business man to Guilt

Already space reservations have been
made for exhibition purposes by every
dealer in Des Moines and good many
outside. This means that the show
will include practically every make
of auto that is manufactured in the
entire country. Everything that is new
or novel or late in auto building will
be on exhibition. The man who is
thinking Of buying cal, this summer
or fall, possibly AFTER harvest or corn
picking" will find the show Of great
value in that it will afford the best
kind of an opportunity to compare
the various makes, one with another.
