RASPUTIN: RUSSIA'S MYSTERY
 MAN

Princesse Lucien Murat, the we'll known artist of Paris salons, was in Russia at the time of Rasputin's mur- der. In the June Century she describes the effect upon Petrograd society of release from the power of the ''mys- tery-man" of Russia.
 Rasputin is dead; Rasputin has been murdered, I was told.
 Tt was unbelievable. There were consternation and rejoicing, but the re- joicing was general. Never have I seen such happy faces. People kissed one another in the streets; coachmen re- fused their tips. To believe them, Rus sia had been rescued from deadly peril by his death. Henceforth no separate peace, no discarded Duma. The golden age was to reign once more in the em- pire.
 As a foreigner I knew that they exaggerated the power of the man sud- denly shot down. But in any case he was dead; he : ad disappeared. Who were his murderers? Mystery
 In Russia everything is mysterious and nothing is secret But some day mystery will be revealed, the truth will be known

WOMEN RESPONSIBLE
 FUR MANY MITCHELL
 AUTO REF|NEMENTS

"The connection between the gigantic strides of the motor car industry and the advancement of the social and po- litical emancipation of women ip the last five years is not always recog- nized," said l.. K. Bolton of the local Mitchell car agency.
 "These two things are recognized, but it is not generally appreciated that they are somewhat parallel and that the one has had its effect upon the other.
 Tt is the consensus of opinion among wellinfOrmed motor men that the demands of the women and their needs have been the moving spirit in cOnsummating many of the numerous Improvements and changes made in mo- tor cars in the last decade.
 Men appreciated and could handle the old powerful rough and ready car. whose gears shifted only after mighty effort, whose springs were there merely to save the machinery from being jolted too much and which did not cater to cleanliness or neatness. But as women began to motor and drive themselves they began to demand more comfort more ease of operation and many little fastidiouS matters that gradually brought the motor car out of its en- bryonic state into it's present polished, SuONts JOllUtSS, SIIlOOlH anu SlIlaTl dp- pearance a siXty-horse powered brute of car with ease.
 Motor car engineers would have worked, of course, to better the engine, perhaps to make it more economical, more powerful and more efficient, but it wa sin the details of the car where the fine Italian hand of Mi-Lady was shown. The Mitchell factory has long recognized this fact and all agency men and dealers handling the Mitchell car are cautioned to listen carefully when a lady is inspecting a car. It has been found out that a lady will suggest lit tie improvements without realizing that she is doing so. She naturally likes comfort, ease and smart effects and as she looks over car she will state what she would like to have and we will always carefully note these things and many times out of these sugges- tons will grow some improvement or alteration making for mire sweet run- ming car, car more perfectly vogue from lady's standpoint. Many of the improvements on the new Mitchell could be traced back to a suggestion made by some lady

HONE PRINTING
 ADDS ID CITY
phoenix Arizona June 1 i

Phoenix, Arizona, June l, 1917. As nearly as is possible to estimate,
 the following facts and figures apper tain to the printing industry of Phoe- nix today:
 It is conservatively estimated that the Phoenix printers are manufactur- ] ing one-half of the printing used here. The annual payroll of our estab lishments as shown by the books of the
 various offices amounts to $34S. .499.64, payable weekly, thus releasing $1.116.9S i (average) for every working day of 1 the year. This is based upon the av- ! craze for the past six months. | Anyone knows that money sent out | of Phoenix for printing ceases for all | time to circulate in this community; l whereas, money s0ent here for printing saves 75 per cent to this community. This estimate is based, not alone upon | figures from our own establishments but also upon facts gathered by na- 1 tional experts from 4,000 printing plants in the United States. Perhaps no other line represented in Phoenix gross cost at home.
 Regardless of the showing in the | preceding statement it is our true be- l lief that the Phoenix employing prin- i ters are operating with smaller per- | centage of profit than any other busi-
 ness represented here because of direct competition with outside concerns. To-
 cated nearer the source of supplies and in cheaper communities.
 Phoenix printers now employ 34l { actual workers; one-third of this num- Der are heads of families and one siyth are property owners in Phoenix. Phoenix printers pay s10,6S2.05 an nual taxes in Phoenix and Maricopa
 county.
 It is our sincere belief that we can increase the population of Phoenix half thousand and conserve a quarter of million dollars annually il the printing, now being sent away, Is given to the Phoenix printers.
 Respectfully submitted for your con- l. sideration. BEN. F. WOOD,
 Manager Phoenix Printing for Phoe- nix People, Campaign.

AUTO |S OBVIOUS REQUIREMENT
 IF LIFE SAYS DORT A|ANACER

"The automobile is properly to be classed with the telephone, telegraph, typewriter, railroad and electric light as one of the obvious requirements of modern life says Jno. D. Mansfield, general sales manager for the Dort Motor Car company.
 This fact, undeniable as it is in time of peace, is accentuated many fold intime of war. To perfect the ef- ficiency of man power, in civil pur- suits as in military life, we must have organization against waste-and the most expensive waste is wasted time.

D. P. Weeks of Tampa, Fla. recently completed a remarkable durability and economy run from Tampa to Fort My CTS, Fla, distance of 1914 miles. in a Chevrolet Pour Ninety" model
 On the run he used eight gallons of gasoline and one-half pint of cylinder oil over the toughest roads in Florida. Absolutely no mechanical trouble was . registered.

Weeks , announced that in his opinion the Chevrolet is the greatest automobile : value to be found today and openly challenged any car of any size and price, regardless of number of cylinders and horse power, to any kind of con- { test which would call forth durability 1 and economy

 Almost as undesirable would be the arrival of the cZar and cZarina. It is supremely important that no wind of suspicion should blow be- tween us and the new freedom of Russia. After the war even more than during the war will the enemy be anxious to SOW discord between the great Russian speaking and Eng lish speaking democracies.

 "The automobile has speeded up the universe by bringing people together quickly, hastening deliveries and add ing a new interest in life. Its actual part in the worlds work is a brilliant page in the story of mankind, to say nothing of such collateral benefits as those to health and happiness.
 War will not reduce the demand for motor cars for the reason that we, as a people, will need cars more than ever. The average man, keen to do his ] Dit knows that to help him do it well, the automobile is necessary"

 I will confess a certain sympathy for the czar myself He is not an evil figure, he is not strong figure, but he has that sort of weakness, that failure in decision, which trails revolution in it's wake. He has ended one dynasty already. Our royal fam fly owes it to itself quite as much as to our empire, that he bring not the infection of his misfortunes hither.-H. G. Wells in the New Re- Drhlic
