eat will pass out of the body with little

In order to assimilate properly the
nourishing food you cat and convert it
INTO healthy tissue and fat the nerves
that control the process of digestion
and assimilation must be put In first class
shape and until that is done you might
lust as well quit trying to put on flesh.
Your system is starving for something
that will turn the food you eat into
healthy stay there flesh and 1t can only
be done in one way-by correcting faulty
nervous digestion.
Thin, nervous, rundown people, how
ever. with impoverished blood and half
starved looks are hailing with delight a
quick and certain maker of solid flesh
called EVANS TRIPLE PHOSPHATEs
that is unequalled for repairing faulty

LEAVERACE MACHINE
DOUBLES CARS POWER
A. L. Powell Demonstrates In
: vention to Washingtonians.

The results OF recent tests by A. l..
Powell OF his lever mechanism to in
crease the efficiency Of the piston
stroke have excited considerable in
terest among engineers and motorists
throughout the country. In recent
tests made in Washington before sew
eral witnesses Mr.. Powell demon
st rated the ability Of hiY invention
to increase the horse powkr of . six
cylinder stock automobile motor 100
per cent
The mechanism consists of an
assembly Of levers mounted between
the cylinder block and the crank case
and when in place transmits the
power OF the piston stroke to the
crankshaft. The installation of the
assembly increases the weight Of a
six-cyltnder motor about 1OS pounds
and the height about nine inches.
In tests made with popular six
cylinder motor it is reported a reduc-
ton In fuel consumption of 80 per
cent was demonstrated and owing to
a one-third increase In length of pfs-
ton stroke through the use of the
lever assembly, the exhaust was ex-
pelled practically at air pressure and
without noise, although no muffler
was used.
me Outstanding feature OF the
Powell invention il It's ability to
greatly lessen resistance to the piston
stroke and thereby increase the driv-
ing efficiency or the piston which OF
course results in lower fuel consump-
tion in proportion to work done.
Mr.. Powell, the inventor of the
mechanism, has spent several years
perfecting his idea and has embodied
in his latest working assembly prac-
tical engineering principles based
upon the laws of leverage.

until there is continued and concerted action by all in

made the Motor Corps has worked for good the Police
Department has gone the limit and individuals have ac

Conditions cannot be bettered in a day or a week
it will probably take year to whip things into shape
