 The man pointed out a little way down the water.
 She's not in dock, sir he said She's lying out yonder You'll bare ly catch her. I'm afraid" he added glancing at the clock.

the broncho for the automobile. He re-
Gently purchased an Overland touring
car and is now seldom seen except
at the wheel of his favorite machine.
He frequently uses the car for
jumps from town to town when
travelling with the Wild West Show,
OF which he is the leader.
In referring to his love for motor
ing, the famous scout draws an in
teresting comparison between the
Overland six" and the old overland
stage, which is now one of the proper
ties of his show, and which was fin
ished in 1865 and put in service be-
tween Dodge City. Kansas. and St.
Joe, Missouri.
Fifty years ago." he states, II
acted as sort of advance scout for this
stage. My duty was to keep a sharp
lookout for the Indians and bad men
of that time. The best speed we ever
made was seven miles an hour and
our total journey in a days travel
never exceeded 60 miles.
Today" he continued, ''I can hop
into my Overland car and with good
roads ahead and the speed officers out
of sight, I'll cover the distance in an
hour. Times certainly have changed,
lat they have changed for better
things"

time one OF the show features of the
city, but the system Of testing automo-
biles has changed, and during the past
two years 1t has been used mostly for

ground is now being erected an Inn

In the face of this tremendous excess
cost our sales have actually increased
since the start of the war. Dodge
Brothers cars at $1,100 in Canada
have ten buyers for every single car

New Shock Absorbers
Featured For Ford Cars

The Hassler shock absorber is being
introduced in this territory by L. NJ.
Barrett, who has. opened headquarters
at the Central Garage, 334 Chestnut
street. The main advantages claimed
for this shock absorber. among other
things. are four springs. larger than
on other devices, for Ford cars, yet
have softness and ease of action. The
double-acting lever construction keeps
down the toss or "upthrow" and pre-
vents the Whipping about and side
sway of the car on an undulating road.
These absorbers may be applied in a
few hours by anyone familiar with
automobiles. They are so constructed
that no cutting or drilling is neces-
sary.
