 Murdock looked first at the girl, then at young Van Norden, with puzzled air.
 Beg your pardon, MT. Van Norden, :" he began.
 "No; it's all right" answered young Van Norden. 'I.want you to meet, this young woman. whom you've beenr fol lowing here for two days" .,-
 Young Van Norden turned to her.
 Miss Summerton," he sad to her, ''NIr. Murdock is from the detective but reau at police headquarters. Re5h has photograph-a rather good Hkeuess-~I want him to show, you" -s-~ ~-
 Murdock slowly took out his police picture, handing 1t to the girl. at the same time regarding her with keen eyes.
 MT. Murdock," said young Van Nor; den, speaking to him, T called you in because, it may be, you'll be running into her more or less from now on. Miss Summerton has an account with us."
 Young Van Norden then turned to the girl, who had made her examina' ton of the photograph.
 Miss Summerton," he said, "Mr. Murdock is detailed in, Wall street. to scare off any crooks who may show a desire to operate below what he calls the dead line" -'
 Murdock took the picture from, the girl saying: You look something like her, don't you think? But you ain't as tall, and, as your friend here was say. ing. Miss summerton, there's real beau: ty in your eyes" -
 "A clear case of mistaken identity" said the detective in the front office.
 Young Van Norden smiled to himself and immediately returned to the girl.
 "Mr. Van Norden." she began, now almost at the point of tears, '.you be lieve me now? -
 "My dear little girl" he said, unable to control his feeling any longer. "yes. indeed. believe you. But that isn't the point. Half an hour ago gave you a check. which, believe. you accepted. It's yours by right Come, hadn't you better see what 1t says"
 She took out her cheek, unfolding it, and read, "Pay to the order of Mary Wentworth S40,000."

Mr.. Pfeffer, 1--WE have been enabled to

since our announcement have more
than justified this belief
"One of the most attractive features
of the car is its luxurious riding quail

signed to fit the body. One rides in
the car-not on it. The twenty two

this Chalmers model is the disappear

King Proves FIexibility
With High Gear Sealed

A King has just finished one of the
most severe high gear tests to which
an eight cylinder motor car has ever
been subject, completing successfully
a nine hundred mile drive down the
San Joaquin and Sacramento valleys
with the high gear sealed and the
shifting lever removed.
In charge of A. ]. Smith of the
Reliance Automobile Company, north
ern California distributors for the
eight cylinder King, and C. w. Hob
son of the King factory, this latest
efficiency demonstration for motor
car proved the contention of the eight
cylinder manufacturers for fiexibility
of eight cylinder motors.
The gear box had been sealed, the
high gear being the only one on
which the car could operate. The
King went through ruts sand, dirt to
the axles, crossed streams and over
two vicious mountain passes. Over
fifty Northern California towns were
passed through. The car finished in
perfect condition.

Overland Shipments Are
Increasing Rapidly

Since the beginning of the calendar
year the shipments of the WHY'S
Overland Company have shattered
practically every existing record pre-
viously established by manufacturers
of medium of hign priced cars. The
production facilities of the big Toledo
concern have been steadily increased
until now the shipments of a single
day amount to more than the yearly
output of Overland cars eight years
ago.
Less than two months ago the aver
age daily shipments reached the 400
mark. August 26 502 cars were
shipped. The average is now hover
ing around the 500 point With four
months still remaining the present
rate of increase in shipments will
more than equal the prediction made
by John n. WHY'S, president of the
Overland company, in January, to the
effect that the Overland factory would
be shipping 500 cars a day before the
close of the year.
In referring to the tremendous de-
mand for Overland cars Mr.. Willys
points out the continually growing for
eign business of his company.
Our export shipments between jan
uary l and August 20 of this year
amounted to 4,006 cars" declared Mr..
WHY'S. This is an increase of more
shipments made during the corre-
spending period of time year ago,
when 1886 cars were consigned to
foreign countries.
while our export business for the
current year has shownsa marked in
crease over previous years, the re-
markable part of our success abroad
is due largely to the fact that Over
land cars meet the requirements of
automobile buyers on the other side of
the Atlantic as we'll as those in
America and is not the result OF fill-
ing war orders from any of the for
eign governments.
"a number of American car manu-
facturers have boosted their export
sales by taking on large contracts
placed by agents of the various ma
tions at war directly with the factory.
But the demand for the Overland has
heen entirely from legitimate dealers.
Some Overland cars were comman-
and undoubtedly others are doing
service In the different armies, but
any such have found their way to the
front only after going through the
hands of Overland dealers.
Moreover. the demand for Over
land cars abroad is not confined to
Europe. Our sales in South Africa
and the Far East have been ever
greater than we anticipated. When
the buyers in those countries found
they could not obtain cars from the
European manufacturers who had for
merly supplied a large proportion of
the demand they naturally turned to
America The result has been that
more American made cars have been
shipped into foreign territory than ever
before :

Record Production by
Chalmers Motor Car Co,

Monday, August %. closed the big
gest sales day in the biggest sales
month in the history of the Chalmers
Motor company" was the announcne-
ment of c. A. Pfeffer, vice-president
and assistant general manager. Dur
ing this week alone two train loads
OF Chalmers cars were shipped east
to distributors and dealers in the met
ropolitan districts to apply on orders
which have been piling up faster than
night and day production could take
care of them.
This record is all the more remark
able following as it does on the heels
of record breaking sales in July, dur
ing which month more Chalmers cars
were sold than in any other preceding
July.
Mr.. Pfeffer attributes the bulk of
this business to the phenomenal sue
cess of the Valve -in-head oeVrhead
camshaft motor which is installed in
the seven passenger Chalmers six

ing the difficult climbs right in this

formance has never been equaled by
a motor car. Although the trip

owing to repairs being made to road

ing was over 800 miles.

SON LOSES JOB
FOR PREACHING"
HARRY MIcHENER. OF BRIDGE.
PORT DISCHARGED BY THE
LICENSE COMMISSION.
Understood That He Gave His Father
Valuable "ouiet" Information
Sensation Caused.

Quite a sensation was thrown into
Democratic politics in Belmont county
this week when Il was learned that
Harry Kitchener. son OF Robert Il.
Kitchener. OF Bridgeport. chairman OF
the Belmont county organization has
been discharged as cashier in the state
liquor license commissioners office in
the capital city. II Is said that tho
cause OF his discharge was that he
furnished some secret information to
his father who Is at the present time
making quite n fight for the appoint
ment of liquor license commissioner
OF Belmont county. The announce
ment came as quite a surprise to the
friends OF Kitchener in Belmont county
as II will practically ELIMINATE him
Dom getting the appointment as a
members OF the county license board.
Harry Kitchener was appointed to
the position of cashier in the office
about year ago and was considered
one the most competent men in the Of
flee. but II seems that OF late he has
been giving out information to his
father that should have been kept a
secret. II Is also said that another
state official who resides in Bridge
port will also be let go in the next
Few days. but for what reasons could
not be learned
The son has oeen in Bridgeport for
the past several days and several ex-
cuses have been given for his presence
az his home. when II was known that
the office was overloaded with work
The matter was to have been kept 4
secret, but IL leaked out yesterday de-
spite the efforts of the father to keep
II quiet. Since Kitchener is practically
out OF the race for the appointment
OF a place on the county licensing
board, the other candidates for the po-
sitions stand a better chance OF land
ing an appointment
