SATISFIED BORT
OWNERS IN THIS FIELD

1T is a pretty broad statement to
make" says A. A. Soule, the bort dealer
for this territory, but a fact:
There are Al of these solid cars here
in Central Maine and there's not a dis
satisfied owner in the lot. / have placed
these ears and know what they have
dope for the past two or three years,
coming up from a late start to position
q. the lead in its class.
II very much doubt If SIS worth Of re-
pairs or new parts has been put into
these cars in that period.
II wanted good moderate priced car
to offer to the motorists of this territory.
So made a thorough, eXacting research
taking in practically every car selling for
less than thousand dollars-A car that
was i1onest-a car that offered the biggest
value-a car that had real quality-a car
that was suited to this locality--a car
that would give absolutely satisfactory
service.
II chose the bort as found 1t was far
superior to any other moderate priced
car and the equal of many cars priced
very much higher. The bort is a car that
is built to endure. It is the leader among
moderate priced cars-beautful, sturdy,
honestly built and honestly sold-"The
Quality Goes Clear Through.

There is a shortage of tobacco in
France. 1t originated in decreased
production and is being aggravated by
increased consumption. The French
crop of 1916 was $4,000 tons as COM
pared with $4,000 tons in 1915. Certain
popular brands of cigarettes have been
unobtainable in Paris for ten days. To
smokers complaints, the state tobacco
monopoly officials reply that restric-
ton in the use of tobacco is necessary.
France smokes about 5000 tons Of to-
bacco month on the average, Of
which nearly 5000 tons must now be
imported under conditions that do not
permit any assured regularity In re-
ceipts. The increase in sales Of cigar
cites during the first four months of
this year was 2Oo,OOooOO over 1916. This
seems large until 1t is recalled that this
quantity represents only forty cigar
cites for each soldier, British and
French. modified in France, to say
nothing OF the civilians.
