CHINA WELCOMES CAR
 FROM THIS COUNTRY

A constantly increasing regard for American, products in China is indi- cated in a recent report from r. G. Willems, travelling representative, to Dodge Brothers, Detroit motor car manufacturers. The popularity of the Detroit car, or rather the characteris- tic manner in which it continues to prove its right to popularity, is hav- ing a highly favorable influence on American trade in general.
 Every Dodge Brothers car that comes into China increases public con- fidence in the trade mark, Made in America according to Mir. WiIlems, who left Detroit nearly a year ago on a tour of the far east Its record of performance is so good that the Chinese are beginning to feel that any thing made in the U. $. A. must have merit. American manufacturers should 1 strive conscientiously to justify this confidence by exporting only first class goods"
 The reports show that Dodge Broth CTS car has gained official recognition at the hands Of the government on more than one occasion In fact the i government is one of the best buyers having found the car entirely suitable for hard usage in various departments capacities. Among the Dodge Broth ] CTS cars sold by Emile Bain1er. the dealer in Saigon, alone. are from one te 1 six to each of the following:
 Public transports of Cochin China. Postal service of Indo- China.

Unusual performance has made the new Overland with TripleN springs sensational success ever since t was announced last November.

 Tests appeal to car owners or pros pective buyers exactly in the propor- ton that they demonstrate cars ability to perform, to endure, to give comfort and service" says Fl. II. Hotchkiss, president of the Overland Arizona company.
 .The new Overland has seemed to in vite owners to test it's every possibility.

Service company at Al North Central avenue. by a dealer in high grade cars at Mesa. This dealer. whose name Nichols will be glad to furnish. has just received word that a carload of high priced cars are now enroute for his agency. He immediately called up the Home Auto Service company and wanted to know if Nichols could come to Mesa and service these cars when they arrive. When he told him that he had to stay here to look after the Phoenix car owners, the dealer decided to have the cars reconsigned to Phoe- nix so that he could service them here.
 This type of auto service, on new cars, is most thorough and exacting and the fact that the aforesaid dealer will entrust this work to none but Nichols is the warmest praise that can be given to any auto mechanician.
 The list of satisfied car owners who patroniZe the Home Auto Service com pany, is daily growing and they are unanimous in their approval of it's eff fieiency This expert auto service maintains it's clients cars in perfect operating condition at all times and reduces depreciation to minimum. This work is guaranteed to the extent that the car owner is relieved of all expense of repairs except for replace nents. This guarantee can readily be construed as an expression of conff- dence on the part of the Home Auto Service company in their work.

Senator Whites Speech

To the Editor of The AgeHerald;
 I note in the issue of The Age-Her- aid of the 11th an excerpt from my speech delivered at Woodrow wilson mark on yesterday afternoon The epi tomization in the main was falr ou.- line. though not in full of what saio' wish to thank you for it.
 There was only one mlsquotatioii' anu that was this: I was made to say that the coal operators claimed to be salnts and thought they should be carrieo .o heaven like Elijah in chariots or ire, but that they would perhaps be carried away in chariots of fire, but to world of fire.
 did not make the statement attrio- lted to me in the latter part of the sen tence above quoted. What I said was this: That some one in the aud1ence said that perhaps they would be carrieo away in chariots of fire, but to world of fire" In other words, l repeated this statement as having come from some one in the audience and did not give voice to it as an expression or my own.
 I shall be glad if you will make thls correction and oblige. yours truly. / FRANK s. WHITE.

The sensation of the year in the drug trade is Asprional. the two-minute cold and cough reliever. authoritatively guar anteed by laboratories tested. approved and most enthusiastically endorsed by the highest authorities. and proclaimed by the common people as ten times as quick and effective as whiskey, rock and rye, or any other cold and cough remedy they have ever tried.
 All drug stores are now supplied with the wonderful new elixir. all you have to do to get rid of that cold is to step into the nearest drug store. hand the clerk half dollar for bottle of Aspironal and tell him to serve you two teaspoonfuls in a glass. With your watch in your hand. take the drink at one swallow and call for your money back in two minutes if you cannot feel your cold fading away like dream within theS time limit Don't be bashful, for all druggists invite you and expect you to try it Everybody's doing it.

"Hardboiled' Smith

To the Editor of The Age-Herald.
 In the Birmingham News of October appeared the following article;
 aParole Confirmed Former Officers Sentence Shortened for Good Behavior. Washington. September 3o.-former Lieut. Frank IT. (Hardboiled) smith who was convicted by courtmartlai Tn France for brutal treatment of An.e~ can soldier prisoners and sentenced to eighteen months in prison, was paroled from Fort Jay, N. w. March zo' ana since that time his sentence, reduced Tor good behavior, has expired. 1t was $ tated today by the department.
 smith began serving his sentence in France on May 29, 1919 and was trans ferred to Fort Jay on July 21, 1919. It was stated at the department that be- cause of his good behavior in prison he was given "a home parole after serV- ing approximately ten months. He was required to report to the military au- tborities monthly. Meantime his sem tence was reduced to ten months, and thus expired last July 29.'
 I think it is an outrage against every ex-service man that this undue spirit of leniency should be shown Hard boiled" Smith and his type with their brand of "kultur." The American sol diers appreciated their good officers, but they have not forgotten those who had no heart, and every ex-service man should voice his protest against the policy of forget it now that the war is oyer,' that is being followed by the gov ernment authorities who are responsi- ble.
 This post at its last regular meeting, held October 4, went on record as pro- testing against the action taken in the case of Lieutenant Smith in particular and the policy in general that is being followed in similar cases.

In the war of all against all there seems to have been almost nothing but injustice and illegalities, crimes and er- rors, outrages and expressions, wrongs and violence, avarice and ambition, re- venge and hatred. fraud and treachery, intolerance and bigotry, ignorance and superstition and dogmatism and fanatl- cism.

HOW DOCTORS TREAT COLDS
 AND THE FLU
First Step in Treatment Is a Brisk Purgative With Calo- tabs, the Purified and Re- fined Calomel Tablets That Are Nausealess, Safe and Sure.

Doctors have found by experience that no medicine for colds and influenza can be depended upon for full effectiveness until the liver is made thoroughly active. That is why the first step in the teatment is the new, nausealess ealomel tablet called Calotabs, which are free from the sickening and weakening effects of the old style calo- |nel. Doctors also point out the fact that an active flyer may go long way towards preventing influenza and is one of the most important factors in enabling the patient to successfully withstand an attack and ward pn pneumonia
