makes one of it's greatest appeals in a
popular sense, through the vast and
even distribution of money for which i.
is Responsible A comprehensive idea
of what this means to the whole coun-
try can be determined by considering
the dollars and cents put in circulation
along the route of the Lincoln highway
which offers the best standard of COM
parison because some definite idea of
the huge traffic it carries is known.
Estimate 10000 Cars
Various estimates of from 5000 to
$4,000 tourists were made as having
used that great thoroughfare for long
say that at least 10000 will use it dur
ing the present season, their number
divided as follows:
G hie 9 to Mis- Missouri river 900 cars cars
West of Missouri river but
not including California 1000 cars
Five thousand cars east of the Ohio
would cover, out and back, approximate
1y 5000 miles each, or 30,0OO,0OO miles
Three thousand cars between Ohio and
the Missouri river will cover, out and
back, approximately 1000 miles each or
100000 miles
Two thousand cars between the Mis-
souri, river and the coast will cover, out
and back, approximately 1000 miles
each. or 100000 miles.
This will give the total car mileage
not include the many side trips and tour
ing done in California, Colorado or to-
the various national parks and other
points of interest off the route of the
Lincoln highway. s.
Use Lots Of Gasoline.
Now these 10000 cars will travel on
the average ten miles to the gallon of

They will travel 200 miles to each gal

gallons. They will wear out set oil
Tires to each 5000 miles, therefore they
will need $500 sets of tires. These ne

To Overcome Winter
Complexion Troubles

If the chill air causes your skin to
dry and scale or become unduly red Or
spotted, before you go to bed, spread
thin layer OF ordinary mercoliZed
wax over your entire face. Remove
next morning with warm water. This
is the ideal complexion treatment for
the winter girl. The wax gently alb
serbs the dead particles of surface
skin, so gradually there's no discom-
fort. This gives the underlying skin
chance to breathe and to show itself.
In a week or SO the new and younger
skin Is wholly in evidence and you
have really matchless complexion.
Naturally all its defects disappear with
the discarded cuticle-as chaps, rough
ness, blotches, pimples, freckles, black
heads. Usually an ounce OF mercol-
lied wax, procurable at any drug
store. is enough to renovate even the
worst complexion.
Wrinkles need bother you no more
If you'll use this simple face wash:

His Manifold Activities.

when we think of the manifold
activities Of this first president we
are amazed. He was an army build

builder and home builder.

Britain. The nation and constitution

Compliment for Wilson.

ITO whichever side of the issue we
give our allegiance, and no matter
what our politics, l think the most of
us agree with the New York World
that President Wilson ia entitled to
a hearing in these matters, such as
no other man has a right to COM
mand or expect, for he has handled
the foreign affairs Of this country
during the most trying period stnce
the civil war. Whereas others have
all sorts of opinions about war and
peace, Woodrow Wilson has kept the
peace. In the maze of conflicting
attention, it Is difficult to have de-
cided opinions on the question Of pre-
pareoness, but am suspicious of the
principle of It. We know that mill
tary preparation and armed peace
have proved a delusion and a snare
in Europe, and precipftated rather
than prevented war. Why should not
our nation live up to her traditions
and ideals, and take risks for the
sake Of peace? Surely the patriotism
of those who strive to maintain our
ideals Of civilization is more effective
than that of those who give their
blood for their country, right or
wrong. The Pan-American union is
one OF the most splendid examples IN
the world Of that patriotism which
holds for cooperation and concilia-
ton on the questions of the Gay. 1t
holds its sessions once a month In
it's beautiful building in Washington.
Our secretary of state, and the am
bassadors and representatives Of
twenty-one South American republics
are assembled mere in common coun-
sci on all matters Of mutual interest.
It was Carl Schurz who said, For
the fatherland when it is right; when
the fatherland is wrong, then every
thing to make it right The wisdom
of George Washington may not meet
the needs Of our country today. but
it seems fitting to turn to this most
honored revolutionary hero for adj
vice. In his farewell address he said,
Cultivate peace and harmony with
all nations. Overgrown military es-
adjustments, under any form of gov
eminent. are inauspicious to liberty.

The Star has called it "The Humphrey Duck

However, the honorable and reliable morning
paper known as the P.-I, today, in its always
truthful and fair editorial column, says that as
matter of fact "it is valuable piece of business
property in close proximity to the railways and
many of Seattle's big institutions"
II is plain that The Star was wrong as usual
and that the P.-I. is right, as usual.
We want buyers OF valuable business property
TO believe us when we say that The Star was
wrong and the P.-I. right, because Uncle Sam, who
paid 500, 500 for the valuable piece of business
property" wants TO sell il, and The Star, in line
with its plain duty, wants to help Uncle Sam sell it.
With the honorable and reliable P-LS guaran-
tee that ii is valuable piece of business prop
erty," we trust that there will be no question about
it. For emphasis, we repeat IT IS A VALUABLE
PIECE OF BUSINESS PROPERTY"
Yet Uncle Sam will sell il at a bargain price.
There has been some talk of selling ii for about
$4,000, but since the always honest and truthful
morning paper has now added its guarantee to the
property Uncle Sam may feel like raising the
price somewhat
We suggest, therefore, that buyers in the market
