UNIVERSAL DEMAND FOR
 MOTOR TRANSPORTATION

The rapid development of the au- tomobile has been the wonder of the commercial world. In a comparatively short number of years it has attained a point of perfection never before equalled by any other big invention in the same period of time.
 According to John N. Willys, presi- dent of the Willys- Overland Company. the evolution of the automobile has been hastened by the almost universal demand for motor transportation and the fact that the motor car has be- come a practical necessity as we'll as a vehicle of pleasure.
 Tn the early days of the industry" said MT. Willys, motor cars were nothing more or less than big mechan- ioal toys. They would break down for no apparent reason and the few peo- pie who could afford to own them soon tired of the sport. The greatest problem of the pioneer manufacturers was to keep the cars in service. Lit tie thought was given to the com fort of passengers or that ease of operating the machine. If the car could be kept going both parties were satisfied and the owner never ques- toned the depth of the upholstery or the inconvenience of handling the numerous levers and other parapher- = nalia that took up the greater part of the front seat.
 However, it was not long before the manufacturers realized that the public would soon demand more than the actual running of the machine They began to figure out a means of improving the riding and driving quail ities of the car. The result has been that each year has seen many new and wonderful improvements in motor car construction

 LEG SAYS WILLIAMS

Practically every herd running on the open range in the state has paid toll to the cattle disease known as black leg. This is unnecessary, since black leg may be prevented by vaccination, which may be performed by anybody It absolutely protects the cattle from loss due to this disease. Fat cattle anu young stock are most susceptible and all these should be treated at least twice year. Early spring and late fall months are periods of greatest infec tion. The state veterinarian at Phoe nix, Arizona, will gladly supply free vaccine and directions for its use.-Dr. R. H. Williams Animal Husbandman, U. of A. Agr. EXpt. Sta.

 Fair enough. BrisbOis' mind was made up. Stone could go-but wait.
 "Ne will now go back and find the wheel you left when you took this man's," stated the chief.
 But when he faced the mass of bi- cycles, Stones courage seeped like the air from a slow leak. He wouldn't take the risk.

THREE ATTEMPTED
 BURGLARIES NOTED
Police Discover Three DiffereI Places of Business Tempered
 With Last Night.

During the past few nights an un- usually large number of attempted burglaries have taken place and are causing the police some anxiety.
 While patrolling his beat last night Officer William Hayes discovered that an attempt had been made to burglarize Woodruff's store on West Main street. A glass had been broken out, but as far as could be learned nothing had been taken.
 At 1:30 o'clock Officer William Strolls found a glass show case in front of Dubowys store at the cor ner of Lafayette and Beaver streets broken open. Indications were that some one had fallen against it, but the proprietor states that an um- brella and three pairs of shoes are missing This theft took place be- tween 12:30 and 130 o'clock, for when the officer passed the place at midnight everything was all right.
 The third attempt of the night was at Edward Erwin's plumbing shop on Lafayette street. Although an at tempt to gain entrance had been made there was nothing taken. There Is theory that the rObber wanted to enter the plumbing shop to steal some tools to use later in effecting an entrance to other places.

Peculiar After Effects
 Of Grip This Year
Leaves Kidneys in Weakened Condition

Doctors in all parts of the coun- try have been kept busy with the epidemic of grip which has visited so many homes. The sympt oms of grip this year are often very distress ing and leave the system in a run down condition, particularly the kid neys which seem to suffer most as all most every victim complains of lame back and urinary troubles which should not be neglected, as these danger signals often lead to danger ous kidney troubles. Druggists re- port a large sale of Dr. kilmer's Swamp-Root which so many people say soon heals and strengthens the kidneys after an attack of grip. Swamp-Root is a great kidney, liver and bladder remedy, and, being an herbal compound, has d gentle heal ing effect on the kidneys, which is almost immediately noticed in most cases by these who try it. Dr. Xiii mer & Co.,, BinghamtOn, N. Y., offer to send a sample size bottle of SWa1np-Root, on receipt of ten cents, to every sufferer who requests it.
