Topeka and Wichita Railway Head
Talks on Jitneys.

take 52s jitney cars of six passenger
capacity to equal the seating capacity
of the street cars on our lines in
Wichita" said A. NJ. Patten. general
manager of the street car system, to-
day. The people who thoughtlessly
patronize the titney cars may be doing
it to their own injury ultimately"
Mr.. Patten says there are few
more jitney cars here than there are
in Topeka. They are hurting the
street car business materially. There
are now So registered jitney cars be-
ing operated in this city.
1t is suggested by street railway
officials that if present conditions
continue long enough the street cars
will be forced to retire and the pub

you wa1t to know. 1t is full OF facts
never before put in print.
1t shows just why operation is nearly
always gamble with death and why
those who manage to live through it often
have to keep on wearing a truss.
1t exposes the fakes and humbugs-puts
you on guard against being fooled and
against throwing money away
And it tells all about our guaranteed
rupture hOlder-the famous Cluthe. Shows
how simple it is. Why it needs no belt or leg
straps. How it instantly and automat-
ically protects you against every strain
So your rupture can't be forced out. How
it provides the only way ever discovered
for overcoming the weakness which is
the real CAUSE of rupture How it has
brought complete cure in thousands of
cases that seemed almost hopeless How
it is waterproof and will hold in the bath
How you can get it on 80 days trial and
how little it costs if you keep it,
Explains the care and attention we
give you and why, because of our long eX-
perience and thorough knowledge of rupt-
ure, successful in cases that would
utterly BATTLE your local truss filters.
Write for the book to-day. That will
take only minute. But it may free you
from trouble and worry for the rest of
your life.
