Studebaker Wheels Chuck! Why?

We have been using this space to tell you about the

biles and why we expect to have nothing but auto
tracks to sell in the near future for the simple
that there will be no demand for any other kind
Today we want tell you Of advantage in partic-
ular Of the Studebaker "auto" track wagon. Stude-
baker-wagon specialists since l852-have perfected
the mechanical science Of putting just the right amount
Of dish into their wagon wheels to make them run
on plumb spoke. They have also figured out and
put into their gears the proper set and gather to make
the wheels revove freely and "chuck" between the
skein collar and the axle nut This holds the grease in
and keepseveny distributed SO that there unusual
wear on the skeins or the skein collars axle nuts
But all these advantages would for nothing the

one side run smoothly the while those the other ride the
rdges-as in the case of wide track wagons-he wagon pulls
harder the wheels do plumb spkes and on side
they are bearing against the axle the other side they bear

Following the banquet an address will
be delivered by Eminent Sir William

fame as an author of Masonic history
and literature is well known in the
Masonic world. The address will be
an incentive to many knights to drive

come by train to hear this eminent

The Sir knights are requested to
bring their ladies to the temple with

The various committees, under the
direction of Eminent Commander Ho-

faithfully to make their anniversary

TIED IN KNOTS
ThissIs Way Hudson Says His
Muscles Felt.
'1t's Simply Wonderful What
Tanlac Has Done"

eff anybody had told me that Tam
lac could do for me what it has done
I would not have believed them" said
c. r. Hudson of Knoxville, ILL.,, in the
Hoover-Lett Store in Galesburg, Ill.
1T freed me from awful torture from
pain after twelve years of suffering,
and it would have been hard to be-
ieve anything could give me such
quick relief" Continuing, Mr.. Hudson
said: II tried about everything I
heard Of for rheumatism and stomach
trouble, but it seemed the more medi-
cine I took the worse my suffering
became. My stomach wouldn't digest
anything, and 1 was dieting all the
time. If I tried to eat any solid food
I would suffer something awful, and I
would have such terrible cramps in
my stomach that I could hardly stand
it. Gas would form and would cause
terrible bloating, which would affect
my heart so that 1 would become
faint and have to lie down. 1 got from
bad to worse and my rheumatism got
terribly. The muscles in my legs
seemed to be drawn in knots, and my
right leg was in such bad shape 1
couldn't straighten it out, and panied
me SO I could find no way to rest. I
tell you I was badly crippled up. At
night my suffering was something ter
rible. 1 would twist and squirm from
one side of the bed to the other try
ing to get in a comfortable position. I
kept getting worse all the time, and
not being able to work any more, after
talking the matter over with my wife,
we decided it would be best for me to
rent my farm and move to town in
the hope that I would get better. We
did this, but 1 continued in the same
bad fix. and I was very discoura ged.
zone day I heard some people talk
ing about somebody that had been
greatly benefited by Tanlac. and I
made up my mind to go right straight
and get bottle. and I began taking
it right away, and by the time 1 had
taken one bottle 1 was feeling a great
deal better, and was able to eat things
that 1 could not eat for years. 1
had begun to sleep better and my
rheumatism began to improve After
taking Tanlac for a short while I am
now a changed man and feel as well
as ever did in my life. It is simply
wonderful what Tanlac did for me
can eat anything 1 want, my rheuma-
tism is all gone, L sleep like a log
every night, and feel as fresh as did
on the farm years ago. I am going
back on the farm able to do as much
work as I ever did in my life. And
Tanlac has done all this for me-
Tanlac is sold in Topeka by Tully-
MacFarland Drug Co. 835 Kansas

Simple Way To
End Dandruf

There is one sure way that has
never failed to remove dandruff at
once, and that is to dissolve it, then
you destroy it entirely. To do this,
just get about four ounces of plain,
common liquid arvon from any drug
store (this is all you will need. apply
it at night when retiring; use enough
to moisten the scalp and rub it in
gently with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it, no matter
how much dandruff you may have.
You will find all itching and dig
ging of the scalp will stop instantly,
and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous,
glossy silky and soft. and look and
feel a hundred times better.-Adv.

would be prepared to increase their
line of investments here. During his
stay Mr.. Parsons appointed H. P. Bet

Better. to represent the company in
Topeka.
The fact that there is no modern
fire-proof hotel in Topeka was some,
what of a surprise to the party and
they expressed their belief that a
building of this sort should be built in
the near future and predicted that it
would be a success from the start and
would add greatly to the comfort of
travellers and the local public.

Half Your Living
Without Money Cost

We are all at a danger point. On
the use of good common sense in our
1919 farm and garden operations, de-
ponds prosperity or our "going broke"
Even at present high prices no one
can plant all or nearly all cotton, buy
food and grain at present prices from
supply merchant on credit, and make
money. Food and grain are higher in
proportion than are present cotton
prices.
It's time above all others to play
safe; to produce all possible food,
grain and forage supplies on your own
acres; to cut down the store bill.
A good piece of garden ground,
rightly planted, rightly tended and
kept planted the year round, can be
made to furnish nearly half your liv-
ing. 1t will save you more money
than you made on the best two or
three acres of cotton you ever grew!
