FOOLING WITH

1 have frequently asked druggists
What do you push in q blood medi-
cine?" The answer usually came "The

have always recommended the one
that 1 had found by experience to be
the best and the one 1 would be will
ing to take myself or give to MEM
bers of my own family. have never
offered the public a medicine that we
do not use at home. This is why I
can offer Number 40 For The Blood
with clear conscience; we have not
only tried 1t on thousands of Others
but on ourselves. We take it in ALI
cases where q blood medicine is need
ed no matter in what form it shows
itself and we get satisfactory results
in constipation, kidney, stomach and
liver troubles. I firmly believe IL ev-

.'CASCARETS" FOR
YOUR BOWELS If
HEADACHY, SICK
For biliousness, bad breath
colds, indigestion and
constipation.
Enjoy life! Liven your liver
and bowels tonight
and feel fine.

Your tongue is coated! Look inside
your watch cover and see! That's bad
business. What have you been eating
What were YOU drinking? What kind
of lazy chair did you take exercise
in? Now don't think it doesn't mat
ter, because, it's your bowels that
talk now every time you open your
mouth. That doesn't help your popu-
larity, nor your earning capacity. Be-
sides, u person with bad bowels Is in
bad way and a coated tongue or a
bad breath are sure signs of bad bow
els and poor digestion.
Why don't you get 10-cent box of
Cascarets at any drug store and give
your liver and thirty feet of bowels
the incest, gentlest cleansing they ever
experienced. Take one or two Cas-
carets tonight and wake up feeling
fine and fit. All Headache, Dizziness,
Biliousness, Bad Breath, Stomach
Sourness, Cold and Constipation gone
wake up with your head clear.
tongue clean, stomach sweet, liver
and bowels active, step elastic and
complexion rosy.
Cascarets work while you sleep -
never grippe or sicken. Cascarets act so
gently that you hardly realize you
have taken a thorough cathartic.
They don't bother you all next day
like salts, pills, oil or calomel-Cas-
carets being perfectly harmless is best
children's laxative.

Sparrows Indifferent
to the Din of War

London. = The European war with
Its incessant bombardments of villages
and towns has made an unusual toll
of birds and animals, and those that
were not killed in the deserted homes
starved to death after their masters
had fed. In the fighting horses and
dogs have taken an active part, and
though constantly exposed to shell
fire, these animals never become ac-
customed to the din and roar, but
show their fear of it by seeking any
shelter.
An English soldier, who has made
observations of the behavior of ami
mails under shell fire. writes that the
proverbial sphinx-like imperturbality
of cats is demonstrated by the fact
that pussy is the one quadruped known
to face shells without a natural feeling
of trepidation. This is particularly
shown at Ypres, the dead city of the
Flanders plain, where, even after two
years of constant bombardment, the
cats still prowl and flourish in the
ruins.
On the other hand, horses are more
like human beings. in that they are

afraid of shells. though they do en-
deavor to show a bold front. Dogs
are afraid, says this Englishman. and
the roar of big gun will start them
running to the nearest shelter as fast
as their legs will carry them.
Strange to say, however, the most
unaffected of all natural life within
sound of the guns are larks and spar
rows. These birds treat the whole
matter with indifference and during
bombardment they will sing and
chirp through the din without paying
the least attention to 1t. The soldiers
marvel at the attitude of these birds
who do not show the least fear of bull
lets or shells

Overland Again Has First
Honor at Big Auto Shows

In the face of the keenest compe-
titon ever known in the history of
autom obile manufacturing, the WHY'S
Overland Company, of Toledo. Ohio.
has for the fourth consecutive year
been awarded the position of honor at
the New York and Chicago automobile
shows in January by the National
Automobile Chamber Of Commerce.
The space allotments at these shows
are based entirely on the volume of
business handled by the exhibitors.
which include all but one of the promi-
nent companies in the United States.
and 1t is because the Overland COM
pany has sold more cars than its COM
petitors that it is given the highest
honor of the automobile year.
Competition for the position of
honor at the New York and Chicago
shows is always keen. but this year,
with practically all OF the older COM
panies announcing greatly increased
production, the race for the prize was
given added interest.
Only facts and figures are considered
by the National Automobile Chamber
of Commerce in awarding the exhi-
the companies themselves have no
actual significance.
Each member of the organization
must submit sworn statement show
ing the amount of business done dur
ing the year and on the strength of
at the shows. Obviously. each COM
pany is anxious to secure that par
ucular location which, by virtue of it's
advantages. points out to the public
the company's position in the manu-
featuring world.
we came near doubling our record
of sales for the previous yeaar," said
John N. WHY'S, president of the WHY'S
overland Company. speaking of the
distinction which had again been con-
ferred upon his organization.
During the twelve months ending
September 80. 1916. we sold 174.27s
Overland and WHY'S knight cars-a
volume of business totaling almost
100000, 600.
We won first place at the New York
and Chicago shows in 1915, having sold
S1,996 cars from September 80, 1914,
TO September 80. 1915. for total vol
ume of business OF more than
$50. 900, 900.
mot only in this country and Canada
did cur sales show such gratifying in
creases. Our shipments abroad have
exceeded all expectations. In spite of
nseager shipping facilities we have
been able TO export this season as
many cars as we sent abroad during
all the preceding years.
In spite of the wonderful gains
made by the WHY'S Overland Com
pany Mr.. Willys looks for even greater
developments during the coming year
The production schedule of the big
Toledo plant calls for an increased vol
ume of Overland and WHY'S Knight
cars during 1917. ranging in price
from the lower-priced. but complete
and economical four-cylinder touring
car to the sumptuous Willys-k knight
motored limousine and touring sedan.

The government has also sent to the

Economy of Eight Shown
by Two Peerless Tests

In this day of automobile develop
ment when new claims are constantly
being made as to the advantage and
superiority of certain products over
/ their competitors, much attention Is
/ being paid TO mileage for each gallon
OF gasoline consumed. Sensational
statements in this respect are made 80
often, however. that the public. know
Ing that the gasoline mileage depends
\ to large degree on expert driving, has
come to regard them with more orless
suspicion and consequently consider
/ able doubt exists as to Just what mile
age per gallon OF gasoline the average
car should be expected to produce.
A careful investigation leads to the
/ opinion that any efficient car OF mod
crate price should produce at least ~
miles to the gallon and that often this
mileage can be increased to Is miles
I or slightly more. When 1t goes over
mat hgure. on an ordinary country
road test, it can generally be taken
for granted that the performance is
remafka BILE.
As a rule. the more prominent auto
mobile companies, with well establish
ed regulations, make few definite
claims as TO the maximum mileage per
| gallon which their car will produce,
with the average driver, because they
| Know that road and traffic conditions
! play most important part in getting
tne most out OF an automobile on the
least amount of fuel. Nevertheless all
or them take a keen satisfaction in
reports from owners telling of extra
ordinary performances in this respect
The investigation of gasoline mile
! age possibilities of various makes of
cars included the Peerless Model Sc
eIght-cylinder car manufactured by
| the Peerless Motor Car Company. OF
Cleveland, and although that company
has never made extravagant claims
along this line, some of the tributes
from satisfied owners which have come
into its sales department are quite
worthy of special notice.
For Instance, DR.. Howard G. STAN
den, prominent resident of CIeve-
land, Ohio, made $40 miles. over or
dinary country roads, on 15 gallons
of gasoline-an average OF almost 81
miles to the gallon. DR.. Standen also
claims to average Is miles to the gal
Ion for city driving.
William Coale, of Warren. Ohio, has
told the Peerless Company of a 500
mile trip through the Allegheny Noun
talns at an average of 14.5 miles to the
gallon of gasoline. Another man who
took the trouble to write the Peerless
concern about the splendid perform
ance of his car was John r. Edwards.
Jr.. OF the firm of John r. Edwards &
Son, Cleveland, Ohio. Edwards made
trip of 630.7 miles through the worst
roads of Ohio-roads filled with steep
hills and water breaks-on 36 gallons
or fuel, an average of 16 miles to the
gallon.
THE pleasure and comfort we expe- !
rienced on our trip can only be ap-
preciated by those using Peerless |
Eight" said Edwards.
