No Change il, Sight


Our opinion is that like announcement
will be made in year from now. The Super
Six invention in one bound, increased motor
efficiency by 80 per cent. From small,
light Six, which delivered AZ horsepower, it
created 76-horsepower motor. And simply
by ending vibration.
Stock Super-Sixes, IN hundred tests, have
out-rivaled all other stock-car performance. In
speed, in hill-clirnbing, in quick acceleration
and endurance, they have done what was
never done before.
No man can doubt that the Super-Sn
holds the pinnacle place among motors.
And there is no higher place in sight
After eight months Of experience, with
10000 cars not one important improvement
in design suggests itself to our engineering
corps. ..
So the Super-Sn win remain as it is And
because Of our patents, it will maintain its
supremacy.

"Yes, SIR says l. Gag and

But there don't seem to be much
need of even warnin' Rupert. He
hardly opens his mouth on the way
up to the hotel, but trails along
silent, his eyes fixed starey, like he
was thinkin' deep.

had shown us into one of the Tilling-

looks like you had the Big Boss
almost buffaloed with that pirate
tale of yours.
Rupert don't enthuse much at
that.
"As a cautious business man,"
says he, 81 suppose Mr.. Ellins is
quite right in moving slowly. He
wants to see the jewelry, and he
wishes time to investigate. Still,
it seems to me that my story ought
to speak for itself"
4That's the line, says I. 4Stick
to that. But l wouldn't chatter
about it to strangers"
Rupert smiles indulgent.

back to continue his chat with the snub-

How was that for an early-mornin'
bump? What was the idea, anyway?
Rupert had found prospective hacker,
hadn't he? And was bein' taken care of.

broke off there, because my mouth
was open too wide for further remarks.
On the table was big atlas opened to the
map of Florida. And on the margin, with
line drawn from about the middle of
the west coast, was something written
faint in pencil.
"Nunca Secos Keyl" I reads. 4Good
night! Auntie's got the bug-and Ru-
pert"
"Vass it ISL" asks Hilda.
4I'm double-crossed, that's what it is"

/ mods and makes a dive into an up-
bound car that's just maxim stop at the
seventeenth. "Hey, Jimmy, reverse her!
III square you with the starter. That's
it. Shoot us down."
So, when Rupert steps out on the
ground floor, I'm there to take him by the
arm and lead him back into the elevator.
"Why-why, what's the matter now?r
he asks.
Couldn't say says I. "Only you're
wanted again. It's the Big Boss this
time-Old Hickory Ellins himself. And
femme put you hep to this, Cap'n; if
that's phony tale you're peddlin' don't
try it on him."
"But it's all true-every word of it,"
insists Rupert.
"Even so, says I, IL wouldn't chance
it on with Old Hickory. He's hard
headed old plute, and that romance dope
is likely to make him froth at the mouth.
If he starts in givin' you the third degree,
or anything like that, you'd better close
up like clam. Here we are, and for the
love of Pete draw it mild"
You see, hadn't minded passin on a
freak to Mr.. Robert, for he often gets a
laugh out of 'em. But Mr.. Elins is
different The site of his bump of humor
is dimple at the base of his skull, and if
he traces up the fact that I'm the one
who turned Rupert and his pirate yarn
loose in the general offices my standin' as
discriminatin' private sec is goin' to get
a sad jolt.
So when Cap'n Killam has been in on
the carpet near an hour, with no signs of
his either havin' been let out or fired
through window, begins to get nerv-
Gus. Once Mr.. Robert starts to go into
Old Hickory's sanctum; but he finds the
door locked, and shortly after that he
shuts his roll-top and leaves for the day.
IT'S near closin' time when Old Hickory
opens the door an inch or two, throws a
scouty glance around, and beckons me
mysterious to come in. Rupert is still
there and still alive. In fact, he's chokin'
over one of Mr.. Ellins' fat black cigars,
but otherwise lookin' fairly satisfied with
himself.

Home Rule
Cards Are Displayed
in Every Saloon

1TlEE so-called Home Rule Amendment is backed
Isz5S by every brewer and saloonkeeper in Michi-
gan. To them it means the continuation of
the business in which they are engaged .44
There is no defense of the saloon presented, for
there is none. They seek to get your mind off the
real issue by introducing this Home Rule Amend
ment. L..-.-.-..-.
State Wide Prohibition, backed by law enforce
ment, will put the saloon out of business If it
wouldn't, why is it being fought by the saloon in
terests? ..... Az
If Prohibition increased the consumption Of
liquor, they would have you believe, wouldn't the
distillers and brewers favor Prohibition in every
state in the Union?
Look these facts squarely in the face Keep
your mind on the real issue, The Saloon, and vote
Yes on Prohibition, No on Home Rule.

"B00TS ROGERS TAKEN INTO
CUSTODY ON SERIOUS CHARGE


ATLANTA, Ca, Dec. From be-
ing few years ago one of the young
est and most popular officers on the
Fulton county police force, w. w.
| C"Boots'0 Rogers has fallen upon a
series of misfortunes eliminating in
his arrest on charge of highway rob
berry
Rogers got his first taste of publfci-
ty as one of the state witnesses for
the state in notorious criminal case
tried in the Georgia courts several
years ago. His name next got in the
newspapers when he drove his taxi
cab over an old lady in West End,
killing her, as she was about to
| board a street car. and was threaten
ed with violence at the hands of
reighbors who witnessed the tragedy.
Then he was arrested by federal au-
thorities on charge of receiving stol-
en- goods, and his old friend. Hugh
Dorsey remained away from a Wood
row Wilson rally, at which he had been
invited to speak. to go into court and
testify to Rogers good character.
And now as a climax and culmina-
tion of Boots" adventures in the role
Of defendant, rather than star witness
for the state, he is charged with be-
ing ring leader in the daylight rob-
berry of H A. Boykin, a paymaster who
was recently held up on the outskirts
of Atlanta and relieved of $1,000 in
cash. Boykin has positively identified
him.
