POWERFUL DORT MOTOR
DEMONSTRATES WORTH

The powerful bort motor. which
has shown such wonderful efficiency
IN the bort touring car. had an oppor-
tunity again to demonstrate it's worth
in a novel way last week.
The spring thaw and unusually
heavy rains combined in raising the
Flint River. at Flint. Mich, beside
which the bort factory is located, to-
q height OF sixteen feet above it's nor
nal level A miniature flood re-
suited. and drove all the workmen
from the shops
Two bort chassis we're run out of
tho motor assembly department and
their engines attached to large four
inch centrifugal force pump, lent by
the Flint fire department. In less
than two hours the water level i'm the
entire bort factory had been appre-
riably reduced. and by afternoon all
the men were at work again.

Business timidity keeps many
smaller firms from gaining the ad-
vantagos Of motor truck delivery
Many merchant who specially
needs trucks because Of their inabil-
ity to expand business. holds Off
from their purchase because of fear
that he has not enough work to keep
a truck busy
He had heard il argued that only "a
large firm with need for such vehicles
to warrant the construction Of It's own
garage. the purchase OF gasoline i'm
quantity at reduced rates. and the
maintenance of a special repair force,
can operate power delivery system
at a profit
Occasionally this may be true. On
rare occasions there are special lines
where truck might be an eXtrava-
gance, but for every one such there
arc dozen where power vehicle
could be installed with profit
II is one OF the curiosities of motor
truck selling that il is easier to get
the big orders than the little The
purchasing agent for the firm who
places an order for a fleet of from ten

wagon and two horses busy naturally
hesitates to bear the increased ex-
pense OF a vehicle that viii traverse

argues. why increase them?
But when this argument is submit
ted TO the test OF analysis, it will be
found. except in isolated instances
that like every proposition which is
opposed to progressive methods il is
based on unsound reasoning.

more impressive than the soiled and
ragged object he held in his hand 1t
was. apparently, an ordinary rubber
glove, such as surgeons sometimes use,
ana 1t was torn and crumpled, as
though it had been the subject of a
struggle.
Then l remembered that l had seer
1t crushed in Miss Vaughan's uncon-
scious fingers, and / recalled how the
fingers had stiffened when Godfrey
tried to remove it, as though some in
stinct in her sought to guard it, even
in the face Of death.
But l don't understand said Sim
monds. who was staring Over the 9TH

Look here" said Godfrey, n held
the glove SO hat the ends of the fling
ers lay in the full light.
Then / say that against the end Of
every finger had beer glued a strip of
rubber, about an inch in length and
half as wide; and, bending closer, I
perceived that the surface of each Of
these strips was covered with an in
tricate pattern of minute ines.
Forged finger prints! That's a new
idea in crime. isn't it. Simmonds?' and
Godfrey laughed e%xcitedly.
Simmonds took the glove, got out
his pocket glass. and examined the
finger tips minutely.
You think these reproduce SWANS
finger prints?" he asked, sceptjcally.
I'm sure they do! You ses it's the
hand; loo at the thumb-you see it's

When the men of Iowa organized to
assist the women in their campaign
for equal suffrage. 1t was a most i'm
portant step in the suffrage movement,
and n which attracted favorable at
tention not only in Iowa but from other
states. A letter received from Omar Z.
Garwood, Of Denver, former deputy dis
trict attorney for Colorado, and who
was born and reared near Marshall
town, is of special interest at this time.
Attorney Garwood SAY in part: II
am very happy to say that my eXper-
fence has led me to the conviction that
there is absolutely not q single sound
argument today against the extension
OF the ballot to the women aof America
on precisely the same terms as the
MEN enjoy the franchise.
Il have taken a great interest in the
growth OF the woman suffrage move-
ment and have helped in the campaigns
In many OF the states. The enemies Of
oma suffrage nave eve hesitated
to charge up every evil in Colorado to
the fact that women vote, and the
women of our state have been subjected
to much unjust criticism ON this ac-
count. The injustice of this is at once
apparent when one considers that the
number Of men in the state is greater
than the number of women. No one
can ever convince me that the women
OF Colorado have not shown themselves
as capable as the men in exercising in
diligently the privileges of the voting
franchise. and l have never known an
instance where the exercise Of such
franchise has In the remotest way
tended to injure the home or cause a
woman to lose any Of her womanly
characteristics. The arguments, or
supposed arguments, which are adj
vanced by the enemies of the move-
ment are very amusing to US who have
Witnessed so many years of woman
suffrage in this state"

Sudden Death
Hansed hx lisaa.a of 4ha Y;I..-


The close connection between the
heart and the kidneys is well known
nowadays. When kidneys are diseased,
arterial tension is increased and the
heart functions are attacked. When
the kidneys no longer pour forth waste,
uTemic poisoning occurs and the per-
son dies. and the cause is often given
as heart disease. or disease of brain
or lungs.
1t is a good insurance against such
a risk to send 10 cents for a large
trial package of "Anuric"-the latest
discovery of DR.. Pierce. When you
suffer from backache, frequent or
scanty urine, rheumatic pains here or
there, or that constant tired, worn-out
feeling, get "Anuric" at the druggist.
