 There was one bright spot in this 2 whole affair though. We had used the same set Of Congress tires in both

 large sizes, which were shipped back
Arizona republican., 1920-04-13

Eventually we received a shipment of small sizes and then things went | better.
 Yes things went q little better. but honest We were ignorant. We made mistakes galore. I knew about as much about a carburetor as a mule does about music 1 actually tried to put one on an exhaust pipe once. In endeavoring to sell the carburetors and installing them on a few cars I grad ually became acquainted with the various makes and of all of them the Hudson seemed to appeal to me most. was sure strong for that car, and 1 used to sit and dream of some/ time being the distributor for them here. After l had dreamed awhile 1 would pinch myself and then go out and try and sell a few more carburetors, just by way of keeping the wolf from the door.
 And then on Christmas eve of 1914 our fortunes reached their lowest ebb. We had incorporated. one of my part ners had sold out for his car fare to Los Angeles. and there were just two of us. We were known as the South western Carburetor company but the name was the biggest thing about us.
 Christmas eve is a bum time to go broke. but we were on the verge of it. And then q peculiar incident happned which marked the turning point in our fortunes. There was an old man who had a butcher shop not far from us and 1 wandered down there just to see what l could buy if I had the money. I wasn't hungry, but the place sort of attracted me. I saw his car out in front and suggested to him that he should Install a Master carburetor. naturally expected him to laugh at me and ask me for some other perti- nent suggestion, but wonder of won ders he told me to go ahead and install it. I rushed back to the shop on. the dead run. gaspingly told my partner what I had done, and we both grabbed 3 carburetor and make a dash for that machine. We nearly wrecked it, get ting the machine equipped. but we finally managed. And then here is the funny part. we went in and told him it was on, and he paid us in cash.
 That really marked the turning point of our fortunes. We had q chance to rent tho place at 305 North Central avenue and we grabbed it. The Texas people came up straight ened us out to the best of their ability and business prospered. I could really go home at night then without a fear that the next day would see us on the rocks. My sole remaining partner became dissatisfied and I bought him

out for s150. That sounds small, but it was all he asked.
 And then came the big turn in my fortunes. On October 13, 1916 I signed the contract to handle the Hudson car in this district. That has proven 10 be the one real big event in my life Frank Hedlee who is now with me, and who was then wholesale manager for Harold l.. Arnold of Los Angeles, the distributor for Southern California and Arizona, landed here and it did not take long to convince me that he had the right proposition.
 From there out we have grown and grown. Following the Hudson came the G. NJ. C. and then the Essex and now we have taken over the Trail mobile. I believe we have the strong est lines in the country and it isn't necessary for us to worry any more as to whether the shop will be here next morning."

SLOW TO ACCEPT BUDDHISM
People of Japan Loath to Embrace

Country by Korea.

Buddhism was introduced into Japan
by Korea In the year $50 1t was first
embraced by the higher classes. partic-
ularly In scholarly circles. but the
lower classes still chung to their old
faith Of Shintoism. The doctrines Of
Buddhism were written in the Chinese
language and the believers offered
their prayers in that tongue.
At one time Buddhism made SUCH
strides as to become the state religion
in Japan. but the people still opposed
1t with q determination of uphOldina
their own Shintoism, until the states
men and priests invented an ingenious
way of explaining and Interpreting the
religious principles of Buddhism
They adopted the theory of monotbsa
ism as we'll as polytheism by sayins
that there is only one supreme power
which is personified in the form OF
various gods and goddesses. according
to the different countries and different
Institutions.
The principles of Buddhism and
ShintOlsm were thus recOnciled and
in order to convince the popular mind
of this theory, Emperor Shomu pa
tronized a movement to erect a large
bronze statue of Daibutsu or Buddhs
at Nara. the statue being completed
in the year 752 after IA years of cas+
ing and construction.

EATONIC Users
DO This-Get the
Greatest Benefits

Chicago, nl-Thousands Of reports
rom people all over the U. S. who
have tested Eatonic, show the greatest
benefits are obtained by using it for a
few weeks, taking one or two tablets
after each meal.
Eatonic users know that it stops
Belching, Bloating, Heartburn, ard
Stomach Miseries quickly, but the
really lasting benefits are obtained by
using Eatonic long enough to take the
harmful excess acids and gases entire
ly out of the system. This requires a
little time. for Eatonic takes up the
excess acidity and poisons and carries
them out of the body and of course,
when it is all removed, the sufferer gets
well, feels fine-full Of life and pep.
If you have been taking an Eatonic
now and then, be sure and take it regu-
larry for time and obtain all of these
wonderful benefits. Please speak to
your druggist about this, so that he can
tell others that need this help. Adv.
