lard Storage Battery Service Station
In this city says that batteries are
often blamed unjustly.
''In a very interesting booklet re-
Gently issued by the Willard company,
the fact is brought out that a storage
battery goes dead either because It
has not been regularly filled with
distilled water or the owner has ne
elected to keep It fully charged
either by running the car or having
II charged from an outside source.
"Once in while starved con
dition of battery may be due to poor
generator adjustment or to IA material
increase in the laup load. II the
generator is unable to supply cur
rent to the battery as fast as IL is
taken out. or If the owner does not

ONLY FAIR TO
MOTORlSTS-NO 1917 CHANGE

Because it is not rair to owners of
previous models, is one of the several
reasons given by the Maxwell Motor
company for announcing that the
Maxwell car will not be changed, that
the Maxwell car for the. 1917 season
will be exactly the same as the pres
ent car
Owners are beginning to realize
that it is altogether unnecessary and
not justified at all, TO buy a new car
every year or so just because the de-
signing engineer happened to have
some new ideas that he believed
would attract few more buyers"
This is the statement of Walter f.
Flanders, president or the Maxwell
company. He adds further: "The
public wants value, with good appear
ance, of course, but they realize to
day that freakishness in design does
not mean service-value.
They realize that designs in mo-
tor cars can be standardized just as
well as construction. The well de
signed motor car or today presents
a pleasing appearance and one that
does not tire. might say that it is [,
ideal, and there can be no good rea
son for changing it, thereby render |

"Out of one hundred thousand own

can count on the fingers of your
hands offer any criticisms on the
Maxwell design. They are satisfied
and they are pleased all the more
when they know that their cars are
the same as viii be sold next year

"Of course, we will occasionally
add new refinements, and features
which will be developed from time to

LONG MOTOR TRUCK
TRIP is SUCCESS

San Antonio, Tex, Sept S.-The
transportation Of the first and second
kansa regiments of infantry from
Eagle Pass to San Antonio in motor
trucks was practically completed late
this afternoon when the 1872 machines
bearing the 1000 men and their equip
ment rolled into Castroville, twenty
three miles out of this city. Camp
was pitched there for the night so that
the troops could arrive in San An
tonic In daylight
The trip proved such a success that
Col. Harry L. Rogers of the quarter
master department is considering
sending some of the northern troops
home in truck when rehabilitation of
the national guard on the border
takes place.
The outstanding feature OF motor
truck transportation of the Kansas
troops was its low cost. II was said
that the expense of the trip was only
about one-thrd of that which would
have been entailed in railway trans
portation.
The long train left Eagle Pass at |
12:i0 p, m yesterday and arrived at |
Castroville at $40 p m. today. The |
distance covered was approximately |
100 miles.

What 1000 Cars Day Make Possible

THESE two latest Overland de-
velopments again emphasize
u the enormous economy of enor-
NOUS production.
1000 a day of cars of this size and
class is more than double the produce
tion of any other manufacturer.
1000 cars a day permit the use Of
materials of a much higher quality.
1000 cars a day permit many sddi-
tional manufacturing economies;
many additional purchase savings.
1000 cars day enforce an accuracy
of workmanship which smaller pro-
ductions of cars in the same price
range neither permit nor require.
1000 cars a day make possible bet
ter, larger, much more comfortable
cars IT. an have ever before been pos
sible t anywhere near these prices.

MARRIAGE LICENSES FREE
OF INTERNAL REVENUE TAX
Escape May Be Only for Short Time
Longer, However, for Solons Are
Expected to Get Busy.

Well, there's one thing the commis-
sioner of internal revenue has found
cannot be taxed under the present law
although some mean folk would say
that il Congress ever locates it 4 tax
will be clapped on it before nightfall.
The list of taxable articles range from
powder pun boxes up TO million-dollar
incomes. and from beer to beeswax. CT
CARS bank loans and imported Vlolins
In order to raise the two hundred mil
lion dollars that is necessary for the IN
creased army and navy more taxes Will
be levied and ii is possible that this
one lone item which has just been DIS
covered will be seized upon and taxed
to the utmost.
The little matter which has escaped
the tax collector UP to this time is the
marriage license. You don't have to pay
an internal revenue tax on that, and
the news of this discovery may result
in a rushing business at the matrimo-
NAL counter to get ahead of the pos
sibility of a large and burly collector
standing at the altar to collect the gov
ernments impost before the ring Is
slipped over the finger of the bride.
The discovery was made today when
the commissioner of internal revenue
published "A booklet of recent decisions
Some one paid visit to the Treasury
TO find out if there was anything left
untaxed, and soon thereafter Commits
siorer Osborn wrote to him that under
the act Of october %. 1914. marriage
certificates are not required to be
stamped

The administration bill to repeal the
free sugar provision of the tarin
passed by the House last night, Went
to the Senate today. 1t will be referrcd

will be taken up soon in the Senate for
action.
The bill was adopted, 346 to IA, by
the House, thirteen democrats and one
socialist. Representative London. cast
ing the negative votes. Efforts TO

Majority Leader Kitchin. who made

general attack and defense OF the
tariff.
