Driving Especially Beneficial, Accord

Riding in automobiles helps a man 20

president Of the Studebaker Corporation.
There is no gainsaying that the pos
session Of a motorcar increases the num-
Der OF years a man lives especially +,
in addition to owning the car, the owrer
drives II himself. For in that way he
gets the fullest possible benefits in the
way of health" said Mr.. Erskine
After the novice gets his bearings, 80
to speak, the act Of driving becomes au-
tomato in increasing measure. He does
not try to climb UP on his steering wheel,
but sits back In relaxed fashion, I
know that from practice / am able to
drive my Studebeker car at a good clip
without concentrating upon the act of
driving.
"The motorcar has accom- mplished almost

credit to the use OF rnotorcars. stu We
must not ignore the fact that motorcars
have played their part in helping us to
live longer.
Let us look at these figures carefully.
In 1880 the death rate per 1000 was 19.a
and In 1905, with the further increase in
the use OF automobiles, the death rate
had been reduced to ISL Since 1905 II has
wandered still further down the scale,
reaching low-water mark of 1879 per

AXE AS HE LAY IN BED.
MURDER A MYSTERY
Officers Spend Day at Scene in Ell
fort to Unrayel Puzziing
Mysteiy-Suspccts Are
Released.

That Frank Thomas, colored, age
so, was killed in bed at his home on
the Matt Andrews farm near Bristol
by some unknown person, was in
substance the information CLEANED
by Sheriff Dearborn and Deputy Wal
ter Hargus upon a visit to the scene
and a days investigation, at least
that is all the sheriff is giving out
ct present. The most brutal crime
might well be charged up to the
mysterious axe-man for a double
bladed axe was the weapon used and
Thomas body was badly mutilated.
His head was split wide open and
his body pierced to the heart, an arm
was almost chopped off and there
were bruises all over his body.
Frank Thomas Jr. and a negress
were arrested early In the day but
were later released by Sheriff Dear
born when it was shown that they
could account for their whereabouts
during greater part of the night.
4 The motive of the killing is not
clear since what money the old negro
had was still in his clothing when
Examination was made the following
