Here are the facts-established
by thousands of American People

IRST and foremost, let us remind you
that the Paige Fairfield 'Six-46" is a
hzed and Frozen success.
ltlSn't necessary for us to claim" that
this handsome seven passenger car will
render unfailing service day in and day out
1t isn't necessary for us to Claim that it is
staunchly built-mechanically efficient
superbly designed.

SixeS on the marker.
When you buy Paige "Six-46" today, you
are buying car that has passed the exper-
1mental stage. You are buying a car of
knouOn quality-knoqOn ability.
In word, the "Six-46" is an eminently safe
automobile investment
1t is good Car-not merely because we say so
but because Its owners have conClusivelv
established this goodness in the grueling
tests OF more than years actual road work.
Other Light Six makers are now introduc-
ing 1916 models. Some of these makers
feature new designs-new power plants
new engineering theories.
In the course of time these innovations NAV
prove thoroughly practical in every way
But until that time comes-until these cars
have been thoroughly tried OUT in actual
service-the prudent man will be inclined
to buy the car with tangible record of
accomplishment behind it.
AS it stands today, the Paige "Six-46" is a
thoroughly finished product.

TO REPUBLICAN VOTERS
To the Republican Voters of Harrison County:

To the Republican Voters of Harrison County:
1t has been my intention to write personal letter
to each Republican voter in Harrison county prior

ager or office force to assist in any way, find it inn
possible to do so Realizing the short time in which to
make canvass have felt that calling personally on
those whom could would be satisfactory. In adj
iton to this certain reports have become current con-
corning my candidacy for the Republican nomination
for sheriff therefore take this method of reaching
the voters and dspellng any doubts that may have
arisen in the mind of any voter by reason of these
rumors.
In making reply to such reports want to say that
the rumor of my receiving the support of any faction
interest is entirely without foundation and ask your
very closest investigation to this matter All the
support that | am Receiving for this nomination has
come to me through my personal friends who have TAX
en- an active interest in my candidacy and have gcner
ouSly volunteered their services and support in my
half. And to these many friends desire to avail my
sell OF tins opportunity to express my sincere apprecia
ton for their free and unseish efforts in promoting nv
candidacy.
1t is also rumored that have promised many per-
sons deputyships if nominated and elected | have
made no offer of any kind to any person number of
persons concerning appointments in the event of my
nomination and election If | am the honored candi-
date at the primary and elected the office of sheriff
OF Harrison county, ! shall be free to make my own
selections and will do thattme endeavoring to get
the most capable and efficient men for the work.
Why these reports have been circulated do not
know. ! trust, however. the Republican voters have
sufficient confidence in not to be deceived by such
reports and am willing to let the matter rest with
them The assurance that is being given me from ev-
cry part of the county feel confident of the
outcome on Tuesday next. l urge that the voters will
remember am in the to win and to do honestly

Birmingham Will Pull Out

Following decision adverse to the city of Birmingham in the Mcdonald injunction su President Ward of the city
 sslon struck stirring note of optimism in his statement given out yesterday.
 Mr. Ward said: 'We going to this city right along and take of its people, We going pay interest it's debt and take of its credit How this be done will be seen ater'
 There Is denying that the granting of injunction Mr.
 Mcdonald restraining the city from using the special 5 tax to interest bonds issued since 190 amounting annually to about $46O00 has brought about crisis n its financial af fairs but the situation hopeess Mr. Ward has taken the right attitude and his the face of diff faculties should inspire not only his fellow commissioners but citizen who has the best interests of Birmingham at heart
 In emergency of this kind will doubtless be necessary to heroic The cs credit must be preserved There plenty of spirited Brming gham who will not grumbe additional taxes imposed They will realize that selfish consideration stand in the way of Birmng ham future Bankruptcy would be far the long than paying taxes though they impose great bur- den on business and others.
 Mr. Ward and his associates be depended to do what
 best for all concerned Whatever plan they devise should be loyalty supported situation of this kind in cys affairs puts price optimism and tests the quality of its citizenship
 Of one thing may be certain. Birmingham will not default lon it's bonded indebtedness.

DUCHESS KEEPS HENS

From the Louisville Courier-Journal. "Higgledy piggledy, my black hen.
 Lays good eggs for gentlemen.
 Gentlemen come every day
 To see what my black hen doth lay" out by dealer in gold mine stock can the royal road to wealth be found so plainly marked as in poultry publica- tions. The winter of everyone's finan- cial discomfort would be made summer by the hen if only everyone would start a hennery. But the professional writers upon the profits of the poultry farm are driven to cover by the war correspond ent of the New York World, who con- tributes an article upon the part titled women of England are playing in agri- culture and allied industries. Lady Londonderry is blowing on her own estate. Lady Mabel Smith has taken a position as farmland and works six days week, and "The Dowager Duchess of Hamilton has not herself qualified as a worker on the land but she has set up a poultry farm
  where she employs a number of woman. Eighteen hundred fowls are housed on half an acre of ground, most of them of the Leghorn breed. A Belgian refugee a poultry expert is in charge. All of the eggs are matched by incubation and the girls take the produce to market in busi- nesslike fashion. In the last six months the duchess has made more than $15,O00 net income from her eggs, the yield of about 1000 fowls.
 net income of $30,00O year from the sale of the eggs of 1000 hens would mean the sale of considerably more than $50 worth of eggs from, each hen. At the war price of half dollar a dozen 60 dozen eggs must be sold from each hen to real ize gross income of $50. Sixty dozen figures will see, is 72O eggs. or 10 less than two a day. As it IS necessary to pay for hen feed and hen attendance, the Duchess of Higgledy Piggiedy has to per- suade her hens to lay more than two eggs a day. They must be willing to work" as often as a vaudeville per former, and give an occasional extra per formance to defray the expenses of food, shelter and labor.
 l Great Britain is to be congratulated up- | on producing, in the person of a dowager duchess, a poultrywoman who has pro- l duced by the gentle arts of persuasion, and not by years of breeding for a spe- cial purpose, the long-wanted hen which lays two eggs plus every day. and looks upon a day off with the intense aversion for which the late Russell Sage was famous.

MINOR EVENTS
the Des Moines Register.

From the Des Mones Register. Did you notice that little item of news about 400 people being drowned when a Russian passenger steamer was sunk by mine?
 Dld you think twice about the fact that American marines were fired on. and some were killed, at the port of Mazatlan the other day. while 1t was because he refused to salute the flag that we declared war on Huerta? Did you know that within three weeks our military forces had engaged in a
 battle in one of the islands of the West Indies? Had you observed that the Chinese revolution has come to an end? Did you know that the United States has engaged in four foreign wars since
 April. 1914?
 The public mind is nervously receptive, and yet it is jaded All such ordinary , events as the drowning of 400 people and minor wars are glossed over and forgot 1 ten in day or a week.
