You are offered your choice Of great
variety of automobiles.
All you are asked to pay for the car
of your choice is the difference between
what the car sells for and the price of
Hudson Super-Six.
Here are cars which sell at $500 to
$1,000 Until recently they were priced
at between $1,000 and S1400.
But now they sell for more, because re-
cent increases in material costs has forced
selling prices up to their present levels
So the only difference you must pay for
Hudson Super-Six is less than $500.
Could you, under such circumstances,
give even second thought to such car?
Wouldn't you be like the more than forty
thousand who have already bought Super
Skies? Hudson was their first choice.
Or let us suppose you already own one
of those cars that has recently advanced
it's prices. And to emphasize the point
suppose before you had even taken de-
livery of the car, someone offered you
brand new Hudson super-Six for your
car if you would give him not more than
500 to boot There wouldn't be any hest
fancy on your part in that case-now,
would there?
That is the situation as 1t stands today.
The other cars have had to advance their
prices so much that it has entirely read
iusted the basis of values as they were
known only a few weeks ago. 1t has
brought former cheaper cars up to about
the Hudson price. It has advanced higher

A Story From Paris.
A correspondent writes to the
American press as follows:

A correspondent writes to the
American press as follows:
One place which many American
soldiers visit in Paris is the British
"Blighty Corner" officially known as
the *FFoyer du Soldat Anglais." It is
conducted by group Of English and
American women as place where
Canadian, Australian and New Zea-
land soldiers who cannot go home for
their ten days, leave may find well
come. It has all the facilities of an
up-to-date club, with perhaps a little
more of the air of "home" than an
ordinary club. Tea is served every
afternoon to all comers by the wives
Of British officers, and there is every
afternoon and evening program of
music and entertainment. .-.
On the occasion of the Duke of Con-
naught's visit the cheers of the Cana
dian soldiers were so lusty as to offend
the ears Of some Of the residents of a
fashionable hotel in the Place Ven-
dome nearby. They filed complaint
with the police, but the police replied:
They are authorized to make as much
noise as they please. The British SOL
diers were not told to make less noise
when they blew up the mines at Mes
sines."
Twice week the men at "Blighty
Corner" are taken to visit the old
corners Of Paris. An interesting in
cident occurred this week when a
party visited the church of Jeanne
d'Arc. The priest presented them with
souvenir medals representing Joan of
Arc. "But there are only three Cath
olics among them," he was told. "It
does not matter" replied the broad
minded priest. "They all serve the
same master and general"

Women often suffer, not knowing
the cause.
Backache, headache, dizziness, ner-

Irregular urinary passages, weak

Together hint at weakened kidneys.
Strike at the root-get to the cause.
Quickly help the kidneys if they
need it.
No more other remedy more highly
endorsed than Doan's Kidney Pills.
Here's convincing testimony from
this locality.
Mrs. R. H. Reed, st. Cloud, Mimi,
says: 81 suffered from a severe pain
in my back and through my hips. Ny
back was lame and weak and it hurt
me to do any hard work or bend over.
When I tried to stoop, it would be like
tearing me in two. I had dizzy head
aches and my sight was poor. The
trouble made me very sick and aer-

relief. They drove the pains away and

repute for professional skill. It will
now stand higher than ever. The Ger

ENGLISH COMMANDERS NOT

Deny That Island Troops Are Given

London. Sept. 20.-tCorrespondence of
the Associated Press.l-Reports said to
he prevalent In America and elsewhere
that troops from the British dominions

front than are those from the United

THE proportion of casualties on the
western front is actually higher among
the troops from the United Kingdom
than among those of the dominions."
says the statement. Figures showing
the property of divisions from the do
minions and from the United Kingdom
employed i'm the battles on the Somme,
around Arras and Ypres and at Mes

from the 'Motherland" exceeded those
from the colonies in the ratio of from
two to one to five to one.
The casualties also are compared
showing, according to the statement.
that those of the United Kingdom troops
have been higher than those of the
troops from the dominions.
Clearly there can be no question that
the 'motherland' troops nave been spared
at the expense of the colonials," adds the
statement. "On the contrary. the evil
dence points to the fighting having been
shared very equally between the avail
able troops irrespective of the oart pf
the British empire from which they
came"
