Motor Car Defined.

A motor car is really q self-running
and rather realistic moving picture
machine The difference is that real
hills are better than play ones, but
one has much the same panoramic
sort OF pleasure except that, instead
Of sitting in a row of ten cent seats
with a great mass of people in the
jerky and the clickety dark, one sits
securely and privately in ones own
moving picture machine and does ev
erything ones self. One steers the
mountains past one, steers the rivers
and hills with a lever and turns the
scenery on and off.

SUFFRAGETTE DELIVERS
 ADDRESS.

Mrs. T. T. Gotham of Little Rock, a National worker for woman suffrage made very pleasing address at the court house Friday night. She was introduced by Hon. w. V Tompkins, who is ever ready to help a good cause. In his remarks he prophesied that universal suffrage would prevail in ten years, or shortly thereafter, or perhaps sooner.
 Mrs. Gotham answered many ob- jections that are offered against wo- man suffrage, proving to the satis- faction of many that every interest must be represented by those most deeply concerned and therefore wo- mans interest must be represented by women.
 Strange, isn't it, that the only place in the world where man wants to represent woman is at the ballot box. If she forges a check who represents

Another source Of trouble Is running
In car tracks or ruts. as well as running

The result Of his carelessness Is the

There have q times. when the ma

There being no lip on the bead Of a

that there II only ono narrow line OF

The motorist should remember that
sunlight Is one Of the worst enemies Of

rapidly. 1t often happens that q spare
tire which has been carried on n rear
tire rack for several months unpro-
tected will blow out after h has been
used for several hundred miles. This
tire goes back to the manufacturer as
defective. A couple Of dollars spent for
a tire cover would have eliminated all
this trouble. The motorist has doubt
