9O,359 Ford Cars in Two Months.

In the last two months the Ford
Motor Company has produced the
enormous total of 80, ,849 cars, this
including 43, 849 cars in March and
49, cars in April This not only
insures the completion of the pro-
ouction of 300. 900 Ford cars. be-
tween August 1914 and August
1915, barring the totally unforeseen,
and the rebating of all Ford pur-
chasers within that period, but it
means that the goal will undoubt-
edly be reached before the promis-
ed time, August first. In fact, the
three-hundTed thousandth car will
probably leave the Ford assembly
early in July and the production
pace will continue almost unabat-
ed, so tremendous is the demand
this year the world over for Ford
cars.
Then on August first will begin
the task of rebating about SIS, ,000,-
O0O to Ford purchasers IN accord
ance with the terms of the Ford
profit sharing announcement.
Each of the 100000 or more Ford
purchasers will be mailed, of
course. an individual check, proba-
bly, of $50. The postage alone on
this huge mail means at least &c.
600.
The Brookhaven Motor Co. are
the representatives in Brookhaven
for the Ford people. and are the
recognized Ford headquarters,
keeping on hand a tull supply of
repair parts. The Motor Co. also
repair other cars. Their phone
number is 43.

BILBO TAKES RAP AT BREWER.
If TOO Slick" for Enemies Should
Make Good Governor, He Argues
Meeting With Applause.

Jackson. Miss May 13.-Lieut :
Gov. Bilbo. gubernatorial candi-
date, addressed a large crowd at
Smith park tonight. Dr.. Ward,
the venerable Winona politician,
presented the speaker to the audi
ence.
The lieutenant governor review
ed his political career during the
past eight years, telling of how he
had had to fight every step of the
way because of the enemies he had
made in his efforts to serve the
masses of the people rather than
the political bosses and the repre-
sentatives of predatory wealth, and
detied any man to find in the rec
ords of the legislature a single
vote or speech by him that was not
for the betterment of conditions IN
the state. ,
Speaking of the charges brought
against him. he stated that one Of
ten heard men asy that "Old Bilbo
was guilty of all the things charg-
ed. but none of them could prove
it, as had been demonstrated, but
for the simple reason. as his ene-
mics put it, that he was "too slick
for them"
If that be true; if | was slick
and smooth enough to escape the
nets and the traps that had been
laid for me by an all-powerful gov
ernor, backed by barrels of money
and assisted by the worlds great
est detective agency, don't you
think" he added. ''I'd make you
a spanking good governor?" A
yell of applause greeted the ques-
ton.
In a milder way than usual the
speaker paid respects to the news
papers of Jackson. rsked Gov
Brewer over the Goals because of
his participation in the campaign
on the eve of the primary. and
poked fun at his opponent, Stovall,
but recommended that If you are
not going to vote for me, vote for
Stovall, as we are the only thor
oughbreds running"

Some Forms of Rheum atIsm curabIs

Rheumatism is disease character
lied by pains in the joints and in the
muscles. The most common forms
are: Acute and Chronic Rheumatism,
Rheumatic H d h S, Sciatic
Rheumatism and Lumbago. All of
these types can be helped absolutely
by applying some good liniment that
penetrates. An application of Sloan's
Liniment two or three times day to
the affected part will give instant re-
lief. Sloan's Liniment is good for
pain, and especially Rheumatic Pain,
because it penetrates to the seat of the
trouble, soothes the afflicted part and
draws the pain. "Sloan's Liniment
is all medicine" Get 25c bottle now.
Keep it handy in case of emergency.
