Rear Suction of Cars
Considered by Designer

One of the successful racing drivers
several seasons ago won a leading po-
sition in a big Indianapolis event be-
cause he took advantage of the suction
behind the car of the favorite. Com
parsons afterward showed that this
maneuver addeda ppreciably to the
average speed of his own machine.
This incident is mentioned to illus
trate how powerful is the draft in the
wake of a rapidly moving motor We
hicle. Racing car designers endeavor
to shape the car bodies with torpedo
or turtle back lines that the suction
may be reduced.
On the other hand. many designers
of cars for everyday owners service
have added materially to this back
draft by Tenders, which sweep far down
behind the rear wheels. While the nom
racing driver does not object to the
small reduction in speed. he does dislike
the resulting swirl of dust which hangs
over the tonneau in dry weather and
the muddy SPRAY which bespatters the
occupants of the rear seats in wet
going.
The Packard type of rear tenders is
typical of a common sense design by
which these disagreeable occurrences
are entirely eliminated.
The eighteen hour Southern Indiana
endurance run of the Indianapolis Mo-
torcycle Club, will be held on June 49,
20.

Saxon Engineer Says
Lightness a Big Factor

"Lightness in weight is a great big
idea in motor car building" says r.
F.. Cole, chief engineer of the Saxon
Motor Company.
"Everone is striving to cut down
excess weight. Even the higher
priced cars to-day are lighter than
they were one, two or three years ago.
Why? Simply because light weight,
when accompanied by strength and
proper balance, means economy
THE more pounds car weighs the
more expensive it is TO build, and nat
urally. also to sell. The more pounds
car weighs the more gallons of gaso-
line it takes to haul these pounds
around; the more quarts of oil, the
more tires.
"a few years ago it was different
People rightly expected then to get
quality and durability only in bulky
heavyweight cars. But materials
have improved. Answering the de-
mands of automobile builders, the
makers of steeIs, for instance, have
found ways to secure lightness and at
the same time greater strength in
these materials.
THE best cars to-day are those that
are built pretty much after the fash
ion OF well-trained athlete, a thor
oughbred horse. or greyhound. In
other words, they are strong, durable
Mere pounds are no longer q cri-
terion of how car will perform. In
building the Saxon car, for instance,
we have made it heavy enough for it's
size and the work it has to do. We
could not build ii any stronger by
adding weight to 1t.
along with this quest for lightness
in weight has come another change
that is equally impressive in motor
car development. This other change
is the tendency toward economy-the
elimination of false pride. 1t used to
be fashionable to be extravagant in
motor car buying. Now it is fashion
able TO be economical, to get the
greatest return in service in relation
to the price paid. The motor car to-
day is no longer n luxury for a limited
few; but Is q necessity for nearly
everyone. One of the ideals of the
Saxon Company has been to bring
automobiles out of the luxury )class
People buy cars to-day, not for the
sake of SHOW but for the purpose OF
getting the joys Of touring and eff
cient performance from their cars"

Strong Endorsement For
Service of HupmobiIe

E. c. Ensminger, distributor for the
Hupmobiles in Central Pennsylvania,
received a strong letter from Ben
Mack, proprietor of the Conneaut
garage at Conneaut Lake, Pa.
This garage is at Exposition Park
and stores as many as four hun
dred cars on big days and makes
many repairs to all kinds of cars With
twelve men employed, Mr.. Mack
states that they have never been called
upon to repair anything on the inside
of a Hupmobile. This speaks we'll for
the serviceability of the Hupmobile.
Mr.. Mack contemplates operating a
jitney line during the winter months
at st. Petersburg, Florida, and says
he will use Hups on account of their
staying qualities, economy of upkeep
and ability to negotiate the distance in

RESULTS OF THE

Hans Garbus a German farmer OF
Iowa, aas discovered that the tene-

attaching to the mail order plan
sometimes spell disaster and has
written very. interesting story OF
his Views In certsin---farm paper.
Here Is part of his story:

WHY "ANURIC" Is An Insurance Against Sudden Death!
Sufferers from Backache Rhe umasm and Kidney Trouble

Before an Insurance Company will
take risk on yonr life the examining
physician will test the urine and re-
port whether you are a good risk.
When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog, you suffer from backache, sick
headache, dizzy spells, or the twinges
and pains of lumbago, rheumatism
and govt. The urine is often cloudy,
full of sediment; channels often get
sore and sleep is disturbed two or
three times night. This is the time
you should consult some physician of
wide experience-such as DR.. Pierce,
of the Invalid's Hotel and Surgical In
stitute, Buffalo, N. Y. Send him 10
cents for sample package of his new
"Anuric" Write him your
symptoms and send a sample of
urine for test. Experience has taught
DR.. Pierce that "Anuric" is the most
powerful agent in dissolving uric acid,

WHAT CATARRH IS

II has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates general weakness
of the body; and local treatments in
the form of snuffs and vapors do little,
if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat its
cause by enriching your blood with the
oil-food in Scott's Emulsion which is
food and building tonic, free
from alcohol or any harmful drugs. Tryit.
