The following testimonials from

seven months in 1898 in Co. "E" 21st

Troop I'D" 4th Cavalry, in the Phil

more benefit to me than that length

DR.. C. S. Evans, regimental sur
geon in the Second Kansas Infantry
at present, and who served in the
Hospital Corps of the Regular Army,

THE LIFE OF AN
AUTO SALESMAN

In one sense the men who sell mo-
tor cars will have this year the easiest
time of their lives. 1t is not likely
they will have to make any violent
effort to induce the public to buy
automobiles. Copiously possessed of
funds and imbued with the fire of
neighborly emulation, the public will
seek out the motor agents and insist
on buying cars. The agents great
est task will be soothing impatient
souls who are unwilling to wait their
turn.
But in another sense the chariot
vendors will find their job more COM
plicated than it used to be. Once upon
time prospective car buyer would
listen meekly to the agents roper
toire of excerpts from the house cat
alog, hand over check and ask to be
shown how to operate the thing. He
asked few questions, because he knew
no questions, to ask. Sometimes a
woman buyer would inquire if cars
could not be had in pastelshades, but
as rule the queries were simple and
nontechnical.
Now the salesman has to be load
ed to the guards with answers to re-
pei the rapid-fire questioning of the
public that knows its applied me-
chanics. Once the question was GLOW
fast will she RUM" Now it is: "Isn't
there danger of that type of valve
arrangement developing cirrhosis of
the differential?" The salesman has
to know at least as much about cars
as the average citizen, which is lot.

THREE MILLION MOTOR
CARS IN THIS COUNTRY
Motor Vehicles Have Multiplied With
Astonishing Rapidity

There are three million automo-
biles in the Uuited States. 1t is an
astonishing fact, but more astonish-
ing is the fact that more than a half
million of them were sold during
the current year. What are some of
the things this vast production signi-
flies? If the cost of each car is esti-
mated at $1,000 then the total value
of motor cars in the United States
reaches three billions. If only one
tenth of the cars are-driven by paid
chauffeur the auto business has given
employment to an army of three hum
dred thousand and about three mil
lion men and women have acquired
knowledge of gasoline engines and
electricity.
This, however, is but one feature
, of the value of an automobile. The
motor car has completed the revolu-
ton that was begun with the inven-
ton of the steam engine. Before the
invention of the steam engine, mans
had never travelled faster than
horse could carry him. The next step
in the development was the trolley
car which could run at more reg
ular schedule. But with the coming
of the motor car, man is free to make
his own schedule of travel. He no
longer has to wait for the train, but
has in his own control a conveyance
which will compete with the train
schedule and still be within his econ
omic reach.
The truck is now beginning to
supersede the horse with the agita-
ton for good roads. Heavier loads
can be transported longer distances
and at less cost. Exchange.

WAS MAN RIGHT ?

A stranger applied at a certain
livery stable for horse and carriage
explaining that he wished to take a
drive thru some adjacent country.
Being unacquainted with the man,
the proprietor Of the stable was re-
luctant to let him have what he want
ed. Seeing this, the stranger pulled
out roll of money, saying as he did
so: "If you wish I will buy your
horse and carriage provided that you
will buy them back at the same price
when come in with them this even
ing"
Considering this fair proposition
the liveryman agreed and the stran-
ger gave him the price of the outfit.
That night he came back with the
horse and carriage and turned them
over to the proprietor of the stable.
When the purchase price had been
returned to him, according to their
agreement, the stranger babe the liv-
eryman good day and started to
leave.
"I-I beg your pardon, sir" ex-
claimed the liveryman, 'but you
have forgotten to pay for the hirep
"What do you mean-pay for the
hire? My dear sir" said the stranger
cody, 81 can't see that at all. You
are certainly aware that have been
driving my own horse and carriage
all day for you sold them to me this
morning, and now since you have
bought them back they are yours of
course. Good day." And he walk
ed out leaving the astonished livery
man wrapped in somber thought

URGENT PLEA MADE FOR WOMEN
TO AID N RED CROSS LABoRs

Not since the time of the great Civ
il war have the women Of America
been called upon to sacrifice their
time and money to help to win that
which the men of the nation are
bravely fighting for, The urgent call
from overseas has reached American
shores and it is not to be doubted one
moment that the women of the great
est nation of the world will respond
with the great enthusiasm char
acteristic of them.
Bismarck women have been asked
to share in this great work. The call
has come for 600 sweaters, 600 muf-
flers, 600 pairs wristlets and GOO pairs
of socks, to be ready before cold
weather. Will the capital city women
and the women of Burleigh county
meet this call by devOting several
hours week knitting these articles?
This is the question which is confront
ing Bradley c. Marks, chairman Of
the Bismarck chapter, and others in
terested in the Red Cross work. A
was called for 4 o'clock this
afternoon in the Commercial club
rooms, to consider plans by whit to
meet this demand of our national So
ciety.

week to sthe work. Just across the
border our Canadian cousins are sac
rifcing all social pleasures and fine
clothing in order that the boys in tho
trenches will have all the comforts
possible.
With this big order awaiting volun-
teer workers, the old time knitting
custom of our grandmothers will have
to be revived. This long lost art,
which was a fascinating pastime of
the early days, will no doubt be re-
vived to meet the emergency.
History has always shown women
to be no less enthusiastic, self-forget-
ting and heroic than men when a
great cause hung in the balance and
it is expected that the capital city
women Of North Dakota will be most
willing to assume the responsibility
of furnishing the many knitted arti-
cles specified in the wire received
Thursday by Mr.. Marks from J. J.
O'Connor of Chicago, director of the
Red Cross work of the Central divi-
sion

The Idaho Springs siftings-news. (Idaho Springs, Colo.) 1905-19??, 1917-04-20

In a statemen, to the Siftings,
Mayor Moscript gives the following
brief outline of his proposed policy
as the city's chief executive:
"My policy as mayor of Idaho
Springs shall be to try to conduct
the affairs of the city in a manner
pleasing to the people. First, a
clean city, the best streets possible
with the finances appropriated for
that purpose. Second, to see that
the law is enforced and maintained
at all times.
"The running OF stock at large
and the dumping O. filth and trash
in other than the proper dumping
places, and the fast driving of auto
mobiles and motorcycles will have
the proper attention.
THE water mains, sewers and
fire-fghting appliances must be
kept in frst-class repair atall times.
"The drainage of streets and
alleys must be kept in good con-
dition and Of sufficient capacity to
carry off the water in time of
storms.
"Fakers and grafters will be
prohibited to the satisfaction OF
legitimate business.
1T will be my policy as mayor
to encourage any and all things
which lead to the bettermeut of
our city and county. The opening
of new mines will be encouraged.
"We should have committee
to answer inquiries that might
lead to a development of our busi-
ness and an increase in our popu-
lation."
