Cars by End of Year;
Douglas County Is
Leading.

Lincoln, June 2o.-Nebraska peo-
pie are purchasing automobiles at
the rate of 800 a day, according to
John R. Burton, head of the auto

partment, Ward Randall, says that
Douglas county leads in the demand
for licenses. with Lancaster county
second and Custer third.
New Features in 1920.
One of the new features of the
department which will save con-
| siderable time and money will be
put in effect for 1920. Instead of
mailing out new plates each auto
mobile owner can retain his old
number and receive instead a seal
which can be bolted over the
old year.
During the past month Mr.. Ran
dali and his assistant. Mr.. Reavis,
have been sending to automobile
owners identification containers
under the provisions of the new law
The container should be attached
to the drivers compartment of the
car so as to be visible at all times
and show the certificate plainly.
This certificate should bear the
name of the owner of the car, a de-
scription of the car, number of the
engine, character of power, number
of cylinders, seating capacity, dia-
meter of the cylinders, weight of
car and signature of the owner.
Upon transfer of car the signatures
Of both parties must be affixed to
the certificate. 1t is believed that
this will be protection against
/ theft.
After July !. under the new law,
as the year will be half over, pur-
chasers of automobiles will not be
compelled to pay the present license
fee of $40 for the first 1000 pounds
and so cents for each additional 100
| pounds in the weight of the ear.
This will be cut down one-half.
This also applies to the S. fee for
motorcycles.
Dealers plates and lost number
plates as we'll as transfers will cost
the owners 81 each for the balance
of the year.

Gus arrived in Omaha over the Rock
Island railroad from Grinnell Sun
day afternoon at 3 o'clock, and i'm
mediately pitched their ID acres OF
tents on the show grounds at Tween
ty-hrst and Paul streets.
Under the supervision of Billy
Curtis, the veteran boss canvas
man, the show grounds soon pre-
sented ~circus-like appearance, and
the horizon was a floating mass of
white canvas, flags and bunting. Hot
weinies and lemonade stands sprang
up like the proverbial mushrooms.
Everybody was happy. Then, the
circus folks began to arrive-the
performers, bedecked in their best
regalia, and gee, but the onlookers
did scrutinize them. Viloa, the fat
girl, gave them real thrill, but
when Admiral Thum, who stands
two feet and a half arrived on the
lot, that was the climax. By that
time, Jumbo" the largest elephant
of the Carl Hagenbeck menagerie,
was busy tickling his back by
throwing grass on that part of his
anatomy with his deft trunk.

lob acco Habit
Dangerous

says Doctor Connor. formerly of John
Hopkins hospital. Thousands of men suf-
fering from fatal diseases would be in per-
feet health today were it not for the deadly
drug Nicotine. Stop the habit now before
it's too late. It's simple process to rid
yourself of the tobacco habit in any form.
Just go to any up-to-date drug store and
get some Nicotol tablets; take them as di-
rected and 10; the pernicious habit quickly
vanishes. Druggists refund the money if
they fail. Be sure to read large and in
teresting announcement by Doctor Connor
soon to appear in this paper. 1t tells of
the danger of nicotine poisoning and how
to avoid it. In the meantime try Ncotol
tablets; you will be surprised at the re-
suit.
