AUTO BUYERS WARNED.
Portland Dealer Speaks of Danger in
Big Prices for Old Cars.

f "Getting something for nothing is a
hard game and usually the one who
thinks he has received something Of
value without giving its equivalent,
finds in the end that what seemed Il
profitable deal has resulted only in
disappointment" says F.. w, Voglcr,
president of the Northwest Auto Com.
pany of Portland.
"rake automobiles, for instance, 1t
is admitted that secondhan ear if
in fair condition is worth more to the
owner than the dealer can afford to
allow for it on exchange, yet there are
dealers who will allow much more than
the real worth of the used ear to make
"A sale The buyers loss in such cases
comes in the new ear, for no dealer can
do this unless he is making long com
mission ON the sale of his car. Besides
he is usually dealer who has invested
little or nothing in equipment or parts
and who can give the buyer no service
during the lifetime of his car
"There are instances where one has
bought secondhand car for $500 and
then traded it in to dealer who was
anxious to make a sale and who has al
lowed perhaps as high as 5000 for it
in the purchase of the new ear. The
buyer soon finds, however, that the
seeming saving of $500 has merely re.
suited in expense, for the 5000 instead
Of being represented by added quality
in his purchase is simply the bait held
out to induce him to make an unwise
investment
A car is not now bought merely for
u season, but TO render good service
through n period Of years When It
has rendered you full satisfaction and
you are in the market for new ear,
trade it to a reputable dealer of known
financial responsibility, one who wlIl
be as yitally interested as yourself IN
selling you a ear for long service, ana
who naturally will allow you for your
used car all that can be legitimately op
piled on the purchase price.
"Then, too, the dealer who handles
cars that give their full years OF serv
ice is usually the dealer who is perman
ent, who has invested his money in the
necessary parts to replace any which
may be broken or injured and who mas
u full equipment to give daily service
to the owners of the cars he handle,
'1u the long run, tie to the car that
is not changed radically from year 70
year. but rather having been made
along certain safe lines adopts only
those new features which long eXperi
once has proved desirable.

 Why, mammal" interjected Bessie, her face suffused with telltale bushes, do you think"
 You needn't try to deny it." broke in mother positively. T heard you, and want to say that you should not permit your young man to kiss you until after you are married"
 But, mamma" returned Bessie, in a voice that was almost pathetic, q want to be kissed some time!"

 Hunberry's report filed recently in Washington showed he neither re- ceived nor spent cent.
 The only promise I made to any human being during the whole of my campaign" read the affidavit, "was to my wife. I did promise her l would be with her at least as much or more after the election than I had prior thereto, and 1 did give her little friendly advice, which was this: That we both pray earnestly to get to heaven, as there was absolutely no danger of us having to go to Wash ington.

GLASS DIAMONDS FOR AFRICA
Trading Schooner Sailing From New York, Is Going to Show Ma
 tives "Movie," Too.

When the stiff nor'easter which whipped the bay into foamy white caps abates sufficiently a trim little schooner, Adelia T. Carleton, will slip her mooring at pier II, North river, and set her head for the coast of Liberia, reports the New York Sun.
 Laden down to her gun'les with trinkets, including bracelets of brass ands glass diamonds as big as the Kohinoor, the sturdy little three master will proceed down old Butter milk channel on what is probably the first expedition of it's kind that has left these parts in some time. Aboard Mate F. F. Lawry, Mrs. Lawry and eight seamen.
 The idea of the voyage of the Adelia T. Carleton, which is being backed by several New Workers who form the American Tropical Trading company, is to descend on the Liberian coast, barter with the natives, . exchanging the attractive glass diamond cargo for the ivory, teak, and ebony, and re- turn to this country with the hold of the little schooner groaning under the weight of riches Incidentally the cannibals along the ivory coast, if there are any now, will get a chance to see their first movie show
 Skipper Kent says that the round trip voyage will take about four months. He expects to reach Liberia in 20 days with fair weather and free winds.

Do you feel tired, have you a sallow complexion, constipation, headache, bad breath, sleeplessness or cidcles around your eyes? If so, you are un- doubtedly suffering from some liver complaint.
 Perhaps you don't feel very badly now, but delay is dangerous. To al low your liver to continue out of order is to invite a serious chronic illness.
 Whenever you have the slightest symptoms of liver trouble, stop it inn mediately. You can do it harmlessly and mildly by taking Liv-Ver-Lax, the natural vegetable compound that is replacng calomel everywhere. It has all the effectiveness, not the eff feet of calomel. Insist on getting the original Liv-Ver-Lax, bearing the like ness and signature of L. K. Grigsby, which is guaranteed to give satisfac- tion or money refunded. For sale by Hesterly Drug Store.

FARM INCOMES

According to an investigation by the Department of Agriculture the aver age income of the farmers of this country is less than that of a laboring man. This apparently corrob ates the Departments statement of a year or more ago, that more than half our farmers had incomes of less than S64O a year.
 It is distression to think that half of the six million farmer who feed the country must receive such pitt ful return for toll that knows no union hours. It is even worse. be- cause this income represents not the work of one man, but the whole fam fly. The small return means poverty of kind that keeps children out of school to work in the fields. Thus poverty and bad farming perpetuate themselves.
 But the remedy is not to put up the price and make the consumer pay more for food. Farming is busi- ness as much as banking; neither can be conducted successfully by brute force. Barring misfortunes, the man who does not make average wages at farming may make a good farm la borer, but he is not a farmer, even though he tills the soil.
 Too many so-called farmers do not have any system of cost accounting. They do not know what crop costs them. They do not see the necessity of a soil analysis to tell them what the soil needs. Tell such man that his soil is teeming with bacteria that were designed to work for him if he would make it possible, and he wouldn't even ask you what bacteria were. Such man never knows whe- ther any one COW in his herd is mak- ing money for him, or is merely free and expensive boarder.
 The man who does not farm with his head might as well cut his head off. Unfortunately, society cannot do that for him. But it can teach the farmers, and the farmers boys, that there is wealth in the soil for him who knows how to extract it. The country's biggest business boom is still before it. It | based on an edu- cated, scientific cultivation of the soil that will give the farmers ample re turns for their efforts with brains as the best fertilizer.-EXchange.
