Lowering Prices to Establish
Lower STANDARD Prices

THE entire success of the Times Square Auto
Supply Co. and Timesco Dealers forming the
greatest auto supply distributing system in
the world, has been built upon the motoring
public's acceptance of its policy of fair prices
on standard quality merchandise. The Times
Square Auto Supply Co. therefore feels it to be
virtually it's duty to initiate the first general
movement for lower prices and economy.
Itis hoped that the force of this movement,
its national influence, its great economic
weight, will prevail upon all makers of
standard accessories to initiate similar price
reductions, so that these lower prices may
become standard throughout the industry.

THOUSANDS HAVE KIDNEY TROUBLE AND NEVER
 SUSPECT r
Applicants for Insurance
 Often Reflected

Judging from reports from drug sists who are constantly in direct touch with the public. there is one preparation that has been very sue cessful in overcoming these condi- tions. The mild and healing influ- ence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its remarkable record of success.
 An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Com pahies, in an interview Of the sub ject, made the astonishing statement that one reason why so many appli- cants for insurance are rejected is because kidney trouble is so common to the American people, and the large majority of those whose applica- tions are declined do nct even sus- pect that they have the disease. Dr. kilmers SwampRoot is on sale at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes, medium and large
 However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer X O.. Binghampton, N. Y. for sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper.

After Ten Years or Revolution
 And Banditry, Peace Comes Io
 MexicO With Aducnt Of Obregon

MEXICO CITY, Nov. 30-The induc- tion into office of president of Gen eral Alvaro Obregon means peace for this republic-peace, the condition little known here for 10 years.
 Of course it may mean progress, it may mean wise statesmanship and prosperity, but the people of Mexico want peace and they elected the most popular man in their realm to give it to them.
 Ever since the election General ObregOn and Provisional President de Ia Huerta have been busy pacifying all factions. His aim has been peace at any price, for Mexico never had a president or a leader that couldn't make war, but it has had few that could establish peace.
 So the new regime took up with General Pelaez, in the oil district; with General Zapata factions in the state of Morelas; with Rancho Villa and the Yaqui Indians in the north, the question of peace"
 It literally went into the market and bought peace. Pelaez had caus- ed much trouble in the oil district of Tampico, and he is now settled down to quiet life; General Zapata died in action six months ago, but his foi- lowers were still menacing things. so a conference was called; and the story of how General Villa was put on a ranch in Zacatezaez and given life time job being good is too familiar to repeat. The Yaquis are quiet for the first time in years-in fact, it is said nobody but Obregon had been able to get them to abandon the war path.
