Scripps-Booth Co. Now Able
to Meet Big Foreign Demand

Foreign countries, like America,
want a lighter car. A car of elegance,
perfect mechanical construction and
convenience-at the same time light
in weight.
In the past few months large ship
ments of Scripps- Booth cars have been
sent to France. Porto Rico, Cuba,
Greece. Italy, Switzerland, Australia,
New Zealand, South Africa, Ecuador,
Portugal, Norway, Sweden, Denmark,
Russia, Spain. Philippine Islands.
These foreign concerns who have re-
quested the shipments are dealers who
handle such lines as the Mercedes,
Austin, Rolls Royce, Berliet and Sun
beam. This shows that the Scripps-
Booth car qualities nightly in the
necessary points of distinction.
The Scripps- Booth car has every
mechanical convenience of the big,
high-priced foreign cars. And the
very thought that men who sell such
cars as mentioned above request ship
ment after shipment of Scripps- Booth
cars verifies the popular statement
among automobilists that the Scripps-
Booth is Berliet in miniature"

was the censor of the machine and to
him were referred the names of all
prospective job hunters. II was there

back on the 'reorganizers, quit the
race at the last minute and came out

True Secret of Keeping
Youthful Looking
(The Beauty Seeker.)

The real secret Of keeping young-look-
,ng and beautiful" says a well-known
Aygienist, lis to keep the liver and bow
us normally active Without these re-
Quisites, poisonous waste products re-
main in the system, polluting the blood
ana lodging in various organs, tissues,
joints. one becomes fabby, obese, nerv-
GUS, mentally sluggish, dull-eyed, wrin-
kIed and Sallow OF face.
But TO get liver and bowels working
as they ought, without producing evil
after effects, has been the problem. For
tunately, there. is a prescription of un-
questioned merit, which may now be had
IN convenient tablet form. Its value is
due largely to an ingredient derived from
the humble May apple, or it's root, which
has been called vegetable calomel' be-
cause Of its effectiveness-though OF
course it is not to be classed with the
real calomel Of mercurial origin. There
is no habit-forming constituent in 'senta-
mel tablets-that's the name-and their
use is not followed by weakness or ex-
haustion. On the contrary, these HARM
less vegetable tablets tend to impart
tone and elasticity to the relaxed intes-
tinal wall. Sentanel tablets, which may
be procured from any druggist dimes
worth will do-will prove a revelation to
any constipated, Hver-troubled person"

Government Fighting
Rabies In the Far West

The department Of agriculture is
taking action, through the biological
survey and the forest service, to COM
bat serious wave Of rabies infec-
ton Of wild and domestic animals
that Is in danger of becoming wide
spread in the far west. The fact that
the extensive dissemination. Of the dis
ease is taking place through the
agency Of coyotes makes the situation
a difficult one to meet
Outbreaks Of rabies among coyotes
have been noted from time to time
for several years in parts of Wash
ington, Oregon, and northern Idaho,
and the forest service undertook last
year to aid in bringing the disease
under control by employing hunters
to make war on coyotes in the ma
tional forests Of some infected local
tiles. Since, however, the coyotes
breed In the foothills and around the
outskirts Of the forests, more COM
prehensive campaign is called for.
The eradication Of coyotes In sparse
ly settled or rough country is said
to be an exceedingly difficult task.
Inasmuch as these animals are always
q source Of considerable losses to
the livestock industry of the west,
congress last year provided special
fund Of $125,0oo to be sent by the
biological survey for the eradication
of predatory animals both in the ma
tiona] forests and on the public do
main, and from this fund special
allotment has now been made to pro-
vide for fighting the rabies.
The disease first appeared in parts
Of eastern Oregon and Washington
and northern Idaho, in region sur
rounded by natural barriers which
tended to confine the outbreak. Do
nestle animals and human beings
were bitten, and good deal of alarm
was manifested by residents of the
infected districts, many Of whom fear
ed for the safety Of their children or
the roads to and from school. The
disease is now reported as having ex
tended into northern Nevada anc
northern California, whence it maj
easily be carried far.
