SHOE COMPANY
HAS INSTALLED
X-RAY MACHINE

II is not SO long since the general
public first became acquainted with
the scientific method of shoe fitting,
the science of practipedics, as 1t is
called, and its advantages over the old

the outlines of the bones of the feet
and their configuration to the shape
of the shoe. The customer gazeS into
a hood at the top of the cabinet where
is also hood provided for the sales
mar who points out the correct or in

to tell at glance whether the shoe is
right or not The machine is made In
Milwaukee and is the second of its

DEER SEASON OPENS
SUNDAY TO CONTINUE
THROUGH NOVEMBER %

On Sunday next, November 49, the
deer season opens, to continue through
November 22nd. There are said to be
deer galore in the north woods; in
fact, one farmer had to drive them
away from his cabbage patch, it is re-
ported. A rather venturesome one
climbed farmers haystack and COM
menced to paw the hay about. in di-
verse ways, to show his utter contempt
for human beings in general
The deer hunter is given until jan
uary 25th to ship his deer. Where the
carcass is shipped by express. the
hunter must accompany it from point
of shipment to its destination.
The price of the deer tag has been
raised from ten to twenty-five cents.
When tag is lost or broken 1t may
be replaced on payment of fifty cents
by writing the conservation commits
sion and reporting the number OF the
hunters license.
So many deer there are reported
TO be that The Pilot suggests that
Wausau hunters be careful not TO
shoot when they see three of four to-
gether lest they violate the law. There
will be a large delegation OF local hum
tiers at Deerfoot lodge on Lake Laura,
where some of them will spend the
full ten days.
The field is somewhat narrowed this
year owing to the closed season in
Shawano county and in the section of
Oconto county south of the north line
of Township 80. Hunting in these
areas has been barred by the con-
servation commission on the petition
of inhabitants.

HAssLER IDEAL. FUR DODGE SAYS .GHAS. McARTHUR

According to McArthur Brothers. the new Hassier is the most practical shock absorber ever produced for Dodge Brothers cars. The same prin ciple of design and construction that caused more than 1000, 900 car own CTS to install Hassler on their cars in the past are embodied in this new Dodge model. They are installed eas,ily, without changing any part of the car--no drilling or altefing of the
 regular spring constduction is neces-
 sary Installations are made in just
 few minutes. This new shock ab-
 sorber is inconspicuous and has a
 very neat appearance-in fact, they
 add decided smartness to the car.
 They are made in several types-for touring cars and sedans, for coupes, rcsadsters and business wagons The principle feature of xhe new Hassler is a conical spring of chrome vanadium steel. It is attached irl such a manner that the weight of tile car congresses the spring so that it gives readily at the slightest jolt The tendency of the leaf spring to rebound and toss the body is elim- mated by a rebound stop incorporated l in the lever which holds it stationary The force of the rebound is thrown l into the conical spring and is thus 1 absorbed.

 When the wonderful record of the Chalmers for fine performance and low uplseep is taken into considera- tion.'' said Roper yesterday, it will certainly appeal to the most astute businGss man as a sound motor car Every person thinking of purchasing a motor car should by all means carefully scrutinize the Chalmers and compare its value with other cars on the market. The result of such an investigation will be a revelation as to the actual worth of the Chalmers. especially at the new price.

You. as city should be proud to be able to claim him as your own Recognize him now while 1t will count Do everything you can to make possible his further advancement. Do not do as so many cities in the country have done in failing to recognize the talent that lay within their gates The piece of work he has done in the Billiard memorial tablet presented to the city a few days ago, is unusual and won derful- It is entirely creditable.
