Auto of Today For
the Man Who Drives

The automobile of to-day is made
for the man who does his own driving.
This explains its increasing vogue.
With the coming of the popular
priced car, the chauffeurs sphere of
activity is narrowing to the essentially
high priced machines. In fact, even
there is an increased tendency to get
the full fun out of motoring by doing
their own driving.
II has been found that the great per-
centage of Mitchell cars go to men
who have no need for chauffeurs. 1t
is a foremost triumph of American
motorcar construction that automobiles
have reached point of convenience,
safety, consistency and reliability that
make it speedily possible to convert the
inexperienced purchaser into a skilled
pilot.
The Mitchell line is peculiarly suited
for the man who does his own driving
All of these cars are great hill climb
ers. This Six Will run from two to
the driver is spared the weariness of
constantly changing. gears. The car
Is easy riding and gives very little vi
bration. even when going over cobble-
stones. This is attributed to the rear
spring construction, the springs being
low and placed under the rear axle.
well adapted for city as for country
use.
The comfort of the driver has been
well thought of. for. the seat he occu-
cushions are thick and comfortable.
The one-man top can be placed in from
three to five minutes, so that the driver
need never be seriously concerned by
the coming of any sudden unexpected
storm.
All these cars are very economical
on both gasoline and tires. the latter
feature saving the driver lot of work
The lighting and starting system of
the Tight six" has only two wires
which makes it the simplest on the
market and reduces to a minimum the
amount of technical knowledge requir-
ed to keep IL in shape
What the light four can do without
tinkerinS. tampering or adjustment
was shown by the performance of the
car which last Fall averaged ESQ miles
per da for thirty days under sealed
bonnet conditions that precluded any
Any driver could have

A VALUABLE SUGGESTION

1t is now conceded by physicians
that the kidneys should have more at

gans to remarkable edgree an do q
tremendous amount of work in remov-
ing the poisons and waste matter
from the system by filtering the blood.
During the winter months especial
ly, when we live an indoor life, the
Kidneys should receive some assist
ance when needed, as we take less eX-
ercise, drink less water and often eat
more rich heavy food, thereby fore
ing the kidneys to do more work than
nature intended. Evidence of kidney
bladder troubles, smarting or burn

Pittsburgh and the Cubs, after the
season was half through, remained
the only hopes Of the west. St. Louis
and Cincinnati were through. But
recent developments have about
wiped off the VESTS opportunities.
Cincinnati, hopeless itself, in the
last few days has administered a
series of severe joIts to the Pirates,
and right at a time when Clarke had
the team going fast. Pittsburgh has
more remaining home games than
any other club in the league, but it is
doubtful if this will be enough as
sistance. A little baseball is also ne
cessary.
And as for the Cubs-search US for
the answer. The team is good enough
to win-if it wants ton its present |
lowly company. But, taken as
team, it just doesn't seem to care
enough to exert itself over a period
of more than four or five games.
It's a fighting club all right, but
most of its fighting is civil war. The
battle between Etelnle zimmerman
and George Pierce, both possessed of
artistic temperaments, is a fair SAM
pie. Tim seems to be improving in
his fist work. He missed Pierce with
a wild swing, but actually landed on
Jim Vaughn. This is the seasons
first record of Zim connecting with
a punch.
From a baseball standpoint, how
lever, it isn't very good for the team,
and certainly isn't square to those
athletes who are giving their best
services. Zim is getting a large sal
airy, and doesn't have to worry about |
the measly two or three thousand |
iron men to be picked up in a worlds
series.
