Maxwell Motor Cars do not belong to the
Cheap Car Class. This product is the I'M
disputed leader in the Refined Car Class.
BY refined" we mean in a mechanical sense.
MaXwells are not made to fit predetermined,
nor to meet competitive price.
They are designed to fill a certain definite de-
mand for light car of quality-intemaly as
we'll as in outward appearance.
We first make the car as it should be made,
then set the price.
We do not cut our price to meet the price of
car Of inferior quality.
Nor did we. as we have shown, take advantage
of a wartime excuse to raise the price to fc-
titiOuS figure.
Had the war continued and we had not made
another car, the buyer of the last Maxwell
would have paid the regular price-and no
more
The Maxwell policy is clean and it is consistent
we are not "opportuniStS" in business
Those changes and refinementS in this new
1910 model actually cost more than the diff
ference between its price and that of the 1913
model
So the price of this new Maxwell should have
been more.
But we are content To accept smaller margin
of profit per car in the interest OF greater vol
ume 50 have continued tnat pTlCe on tnlS l9l9
model.
There are today more Maxwells in hands Of
users than of any comparable carve are
counting on the splendid quality with the low
price of this latest model to maintain that
leadership.
but talk is all right" you say.
You want something definite something tan
gible to tie to-
Very well-here is your guarantee
Price of the Maxwell Motor Car today Tour
ing or Roadster model) is S895.OO f. o. b. Det-
troit Michigan, and we absolutely guarantee
that price until June next, 1919.
Every Maxwell dealer is authorized TO give you
that guarantee in writing at time OF purchase OF
your car.
Some makers have announced reduction
others will follow
So far however. We have seen no real reduc-
tions-though there have been some genuine
increases Of price since the war closed. There
will be more Of the latter, too!
In buving a Maxwell Motor Car YOU know pre-
ciSelv where YOU stand
And our guarantee of the price is your best
guarantee of the intrinsic value OF this product
So buy the Maxwell you need-get your order
in early.
Maxwells may 60 TO premium-price MAJ
have to be increased-but We guarantee you
absolutely against a reduction.

HOW TOKEEP WE'LL. I
T. Alvin jefferson. M. d. /

| The time of bathing depends upon
the kind of bath needed. Hot baths
are best taken upon retiring.
People who do not rest well at night
will often be benefited by taking hot
| bath at bedtime. Sometimes this acts
| we'll with children who give their
| mothers much trouble at night.
The best tonic bath is the cold bath,
which should be taken upon arising.
1t may not be advisable to plunge into
cold water all at once; the better way
| is to get into the water at body tenn
perature and slowly add cold water,
giving the body chance to warn, up
to it. After the, bath, give the body a
vigorous rubbing with rough towel.
The use of scrubbing and skin brush
es is not to be encouraged, for the
body is not to b escrubbed as though
it was board. Scrubbing removes
all the natural oil from the surface,
leaving the skin dry and scaly.
The best soap to be used is the pur-
est you can find. Avoid the use of
sweet smelling soaps, because they
are usually impure. Perfume in soap
is chiefly used to disguise offensive
odors Of decaying fats extracted from
garbage. The use of tar soap is not
always wise for it is usually the poor
est grade Of soap manufactured
The nails derivative of the skin,
should be kept clean and the best way
to keep them clean is to keep them
trimmed. It is bad practice to go
around with the ends of your fingers
Sin mourning
Skin diseases are due to external
and internal causes. The best way
to protect the skin against disease is
to keep it clean. Irritation is the chief
cause of skin trouble. OF the internal
causes, irritation is due to the elimina-
ton of waste poisons Of the blood
the skin; while the external
causes may be due to injury from poor
soaps, improper clothing, vegetable
and animal germs
Among the internal causes are
syphilis, scarlet fever rash, measles,
smallpox, chickenpox, etc. From the
external causes we get eczema. psori-
asis, scabies, tricophytosis or ring
worm Of the scalp, face and body,
pediculosis or lice Of the head and
body. Prophylaxis is better than
for it is better to prevent
disease rather than to cure disease.

indians Utilized Irrigation.

The Indian discovered for himself
the science Of irrigation. Many of the
tribes, such as the Crows and the
Apaches, early made use Of the river
bottoms fer the cultivation of their
staple crop-cOrn. When the condi-
ton of dryness came they would con
struct rough temporary dam of log,
with which they could divert the
course Of part OF the stream into their
lands. There were primitive bitches
which distributed the water.

ABILENE MAN IS OUT
FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL

Abilene, Texas, Jan 14.-John W
Woods announced here today his can
didacy for the nomination Of attorney
general of Texas in the July primary.
In this campaign I shall advocate
the same principles I did two years
ago and shall not at this time take
the space to reiterate them" he says.
My friends are conversant with the
circumstances which encompassed my
defeat two years ago by the clandes-
tine circulation Of thousands Of Cir
cular fake tickets. one week prior to
the election
There are certain political condi-
tons existing in Texas which I believe
could be reached and remedied by the
power already vested in the attorney
generals department. In cases where
laws are inadequate I could use my
influence as attorney general before
the legislature of Texas for the ex-
actment Of adequate laws looking to
the publication of the ballot and
cleaner politics in Texas.
Z have changed my residence from
Fisher county to Abilene, Taylor
