DRINK HOT TEA
FOR A BAD COLD

Get small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea, or as the German folks
call it, Hamburger Brust Thee" at any
pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful of the
tea, put cup of boiling water upon
it, pour through a sieve and drink a
teacup full at any time during the
day or before retiring. 1t is the most
effective way to break cold and cure
grip, as it opens the pores of the skin,
relieving congestion. Also loosens the
bowels, thus driving a cold from the
system.
Try it the next time you suffer from
a cold or the grip. 1t is inexpensive
and entirely vegetable, therefore safe
and harmless.

A CAR THAT APPEALS TO
ALL CLASSES OF BUYERS

ALL ILASSES UT . "
The degree of perfection attained
in the medium priced car makes its
appeal not only to those of moderate
means but also to people of wealth.
An excellent example of this may
be found in the list of owners Of
Overland cars During the past few
months Overland dealers have re-
ported an increasing number of sales
to prominent and wealthy people who
might heretofore have been consld-
cred prospects for far higher priced
cars.
Champ Clark, speaker of the House
of Representatives, and A. l.. Mohler,
president of the Union Pacific rail-
road are among the most recent to
add their names to the long list or
Overland owners. Congressman Clark
purchased a Model S3 Overland tour
ing car in Washington on the same
that Mr.. Mohler bought his in
Omaha.
Either of these men could have in
vested in any one of the high priced
cars selling at five or six times the
price of the Overland if the desired
In fact, Mr.. Mohler already owns two
of the highest priced cars made in
the country But the pract1cab1llty
of the Overland, with it's detachable
top and numerous other advantages,
appealed to him strongly as a car
Of exceptional value.
A few years ago, men Of their
standing were considered prospects
exclusively for dealers handling high
priced cars Automobiles at that
time were judged solely from a price
standpoint and it was a rare event
for a salesman to interest a wealthy
man in any car that did not sell at
top figure.
But quantity production methods
now in vogue in this country have
enabled big manufacturers such as
The WHY'S Overland Company to put
the maximum of quality and work
manship into their cars and yet sell
them for a reasonable figure.
AS the second largest consumers
of raw materials in the industry, the
Toledo concern is able to not only
buy in enormous quantities but are
IxynI H.
vorable turn of the market, antlclpat-
| ing their requirements and paying
huge sums in cash The initial say
ing on the cost of materials alone
runs into millions of dollars in the
course of a year. But it is due pri-
marily to the improved methods of
manufacture, made possible only in
plant of it's size, that the Over
land is able to put quality first in
! the construction Of it's cars.
Each part of the Overland is made
| by men who have become proficient
in their work through constant APP
plication at one task. These parts
when assembled must of necessity
form a more perfect car than would
lbe possible to build in factory
where the production was limited or
where the comparatively few work
men were compelled to turn out a
great variety Of parts.
1t is manufacturing methods such
as these that have placed the Over
land in a position where the car it
self, as we'll as it's price, now appeals
to all buyers.

light In the world Tt is equal to 49,

According to the naval critic, Hector
G. Bywater, so far as building ways
and construction plans are concerned
there is no reason why Germany could
not have rs battleships or battle
cruisers under construction at one
time. Though he admits that this fig
u1e may be astonishing, he shows that
an examination OF the various yards
governmental and private, in Germany,
justifies the estimate. In fact, he says
that, simultaneously, a program includ'
ing light cruisers, destroyers and SUD-
marines, could be put through, since
there are many German yards which,
although they cannot build capital
ships, are well equipped to produce
the lighter craft. He estimates the
total working force ia all these yards
at 100000 men.

ALLIES NOW AT SALONIkI
THE PLANS OF THE ALLIES IN
NEW OFFENSIVE ARE SOME
WHAT OBSCURE.
Berlin Reports Advances Against Ser
blans.-Freneh Mark Time In West
Fierce Struggle Around Fleury ~
Verdun Sector Continues.

| London. With no important
changes in the main war theaters In
terest rem aims centered on the new
Allied offensive on the Saloniki front.
The latest dispatches, however, throw
little light on the situation and the
Allies plans are somewhat obscure.
The British report that the Bulga-
rians have advanced along the Struma
Valley and have entrenched them
selves at various points. Berlin also
reports fu. Their advances for them on
the right wing where they face the
Serbians. Apparently, however, no
action OF first importance has yet de-
veloped.
Interest In the attitude OF the
Greeks has been heightened by dis
patches telling OF the determination
of the Greek commander at Sores to
resist the Bulgarians and OF volun-
teers being organized for his assist
ance by the Venizelos leaders at Sa-
loniki
There has been no further develop
ment in. the Rumanfan situation. The
last report from Berlin maintains that
Rumania has net reached decision.
On the Western front the French
are apparently marking time while
the British push against Thiepval and
Guillemont. The British report
fresh tightening OF the ring around
Thiepval in the capture Of zoo yards
Of German trenches south Of the
town. Bitter fighting is going on In
this section. The Germans succeeded
in entering some British trenches but
according to London were immedi-
ately evicted.
Conflicting claims are made by Ber-
lin and .Petrograd on the fighting on
the eastern front Both report the
capture OF positions near Jablonttza
Pass, where a violent struggle has
been in progress several days on the
crest OF the Carpathians. Berlin also
claims the sanguinary repufse OF Rus
sian attempts to cross the Stokhod
