Only Six Days to Go-Time is Short-Booster Period

Contestants Are Gathering the Harvest While Sun Shines
The News Automobile Co Growing in Popularity
Every Day.

A plucky young lady called at the
Campaign Managers office, asking
for receipt book and information
concerning The News Automobile
Contest. She was nominated by
some friend-read what she says:
Il didn't know until today that
anyone had considered me a posi-
bility in The News Auto Contest, and
didn't know until few minutes ago
who it was that cast the first vote
Tor me; but l am certainly going
after that automobile, for l consider
it most liberal offer. Too late?
Mercy, no! Seems 20 be that this is
just the right time to get in this
battle. Six days is a mighty short
time, yes, but one can do wonders in
six days"
This was about the substance of
the conversation with this young
lady, and she has the right spirit to
make a good contestant, with all the
nerve and confidence necessary to
win. She did not ask a single ques-
ton did not seem to care how the
race was going--she just seemed to
consider that she was going to be the
only one in the race. This IS the
right spirit.
EVERYBODY A WINNER MAKES

The splendid prizes and the in
creasing popularity of The News are
the things that are producing phe-
nominal interest in this contest. Just

C. Fl. Candy, president of the
Chicago Board of Trade. was a vol
untary witness before the inquiry in
stituted by the attorney general Of
New York into the rise in the price
Of bread and wheat. He insisted
that there was no such thing as a
monopoly Of wheat, and that the
high prices were caused merely by
the European demand.
This is what Mr.. Canby had to say
when he was asked If large cor
poration, like the Armour grain in
terests, can not by buying grain from
the farmers s1d holding it indefinite
iy in their elevators control the ex-
pert wheat situation, and by con-
trolling that regulate the domestic
market;
Il wouldn't call that popular
myth. ! should say it is principally
all moonshine Just plain bunk.
Speculation neither raises nor
lowers prices; small amounts cause
wider fluctuations than large
amounts"

call it, "lIanlourgcr Brust Thee" at any

tea, put cup OF boiling water upon
it, pour through sieve and drink

effective way to break / cold and cure

The new system Of mail delivery and
