The Sociability Run

The following letter will eNplait
itself:
DENVER, CoLo., Sept. 3. 1915.
Mr.. Thomas Kildun, County Commi stoneS
Meeker colo:
DEAR SIR - To better procure ret
suits, the reliability-economy tout
which was to start from Denver on
September 7th, has been changed to
strictly sociability tour and will
start from here on September 18th.
This will bring us into your town on
the 18th, if everything goes nicely. I
The reason for the change of char
acter and date was, that the first
scheme decided upon limited so
closely the number of cars which
could enter-strictly 1916 models
that only a few of the dealers who
had received cars-eight in number;
could participate. Of course, we
could not see in advance that it
would be impossible for dealers to
get their ears, but such is the case.
Now private individuals can enter
business men of Denver are becom-
ing greatly interested. The pros
poets are that we will have a big
party and that Meeker will have q
chance to entertain some of Denver's
leading business men. 1t should
have good effect in futher cementing
friendly relations between the two
cities.
Please have your newspapers mem
ton the new plans.
Yours Very Truly,
CHAs. +. RUEHRIG.

Cuba and Mexico

Recently Cuba celebrated her indie
pendence day. For thirteen years she
has governed herself and was never SO
prosperous as she is today. Before she
was granted her independence by the
United States, in 1902, the total ex-
ports of the island amounted to $5l, :
900, 900. In 1914 they had increased to
Sl35, 900, O00 Our trade with Cuba has
increased from $27, 900, 900 in 1902 to
500, 600, 900 in 1914 Labor gets better
wages today than ever before in the
history Of the island. The educational
system which the United States authori-
ties installed in the island has been
continued and greatly extended. There
has been no lowering of the standard of
hygiene and sanitation, and the scourge
of yellow fever no longer terrorizes the
people every season. The people have
been taught that revolution does not
pay, and that industry, thrift and the
observance of law brings large returns
in comfort, happiness and wealth.
What this nation did for Cuba she has
reason to be proud of. If we could
only do as much for Mexico, where a
condition infinitely worse than that which
existed in Cuba prior to 1898 continues,
it would be something well worth boast
ing about.

PALE BEAUTY FADES

The girl who comes home from school
or shop tired out every day may be
beautiful but she will soon fade. She
will be fortunate if she escapes a physical
breakdown because the ease with which
she tires is probably the first warning
symptom Of thinning of the blood that
cannot be disregarded.
Thin blood may give an attractive pal
Tor for short time but soon the patient
becomes thin, fat-chested, haggard and
angular. The only beauty that endures
is that of rich, red blood shining through
q transparent skin.
Almost any girl can build up her blood
by using Dr. Williams Pink Pills. They
are useful to growing girls, to pale girls,
thin girls and those who get tired or out
of breath easily. Mothers of such girls
should see tC it that the tendency to
anemia is checked by the use of DR.. VIII
liams' Pink Pills before the trouble be-
comes chronic.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills will build up
the blood if anything will They are
free from opiates or harmful drugs and
can be taken with perfect safety by any
one. Your own druggist sells them so
you can begin the treatment at once. A
helpful booklet, Building Up the Blood"
will be sent you free on request by the

ing about.

More than one newspaper publisher
who has made splendid success of his
newspaper, knew little or nothing about
newspaper matters prior to ownership.
Great successes in other lines of business
have also come to men who in their
earlier days followed other occupa-
pations. For example, Field was a
merchant, yet he laid the first ocean
cable. Bell was professor of elocu-
ton, yet he invented the telephone.
Carnegie was a railroad official, yet he
became the richest steel maker in the
world. Judge Gary is lawyer, yet
he is at the head of the American
Steel Trust. Allis was an auditor, yet
he created the Allis- Chalmers works at
Milwaukee. Ingersoll, who gave the
world good cheap watches, was not a
matchmaker. Selden, who secured the
first automobile patent, wassa .lawyer.
Eastman, creator of the kodak, was a
bank clerk. Hartman, the greatest of
American railway organizers, was a
stock broker.
Herbert n Casson, who claims that
no man can see more than two sides Of
a square house at the'same time, is3re-
pom sible for the above information.
Casson is one of the most brilliant ad-
vertising men in the United States to-
day, and he has made good because he
went about the solving of adver Using
problems upon scientific basis. My
acquaintance with Herbert N. dates
back fifteen years. At the time of my

Mrs. Casson a log cabin up in the Cat

at that time engaged din the prelimin-
airy work for his series of articles on
the steel and iron industry of the

attention in one of the monthly maya
zines and newspaperdom.
Mrs. Casson was formerly pastor of
the Free Congregational society in Bar

TIE Sea=going Submarine.

The German submarine U-51 is op-
Grating around Constantinople. To
get there it is said to have made the
long voyage from Kiel or Wilhelms-
haven, via the North sea, the open At
lantic and the Mediterranean, then
through the Dardenelles- altogether
about 5, 1000 miles. The matter is of
particular interest to Americans just
now.
1t is only 5000 miles from New York
to Liverpool, and little more to the
German coast. 1t is less than 5000
miles from Yokohama to San Fran
cisco.
The United States government is
said to have at this time two large
sea going submarines under construc-
ton, and three more have been pro-
vlded for IN the last appropriation
bill. Needless to say, this country
which invented the submarine ought
to have vessels of this type as power
full as any in existence, able to travel
5000 miles or more and be ready for
effective work at the end of the voy-
age. Such exhibitions as our active
submarines gave in the recent Allan
tic maneuvers will not do. The big
